Ulrich Schollwöck: "Matrix product states for real materials"

Tensor Methods and Emerging Applications to the Physical and Data Sciences 2021
Workshop I: Tensor Methods and their Applications in the Physical and Data Sciences

"Matrix product states for real materials"
Ulrich Schollwöck - University of Munich

Abstract: In this talk, I will present recent advances on how to combine MPS-based and similar algorithms to provide impurity solvers for dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) in combination with density functional theory. Several physical applications, in particular to strongly correlated materials with Hund’s coupling and spin-orbit coupling (transition metal and rare earth oxides) will be presented, showing how this method can solve physical questions that are not easily accessible to competing methods.
