Screening from $e_g$ states and antiferromagnetic correlations in $d^{(1,2,3)}$ perovskites: A $GW$+EDMFT investigation

Abstract

We perform a systematic {\it ab initio} study of the electronic structure of Sr(V,Mo,Mn)O${}_3$ perovskites, using the parameter-free $GW$+EDMFT method. This approach self-consistently calculates effective interaction parameters, taking into account screening effects due to nonlocal charge fluctuations. Comparing the results of a 3-band ($t_{2g}$) description to those of a 5-band ($t_{2g}$+$e_g$) model, it is shown that the $e_g$ states have little effect on the low-energy properties and the plasmonic features for the first two compounds but play a more active role in SrMnO${}_3$. In the case of SrMnO${}_3$ paramagnetic $GW$+EDMFT yields a metallic low-temperature solution on the verge of a Mott transition, while antiferromagnetic $GW$+EDMFT produces an insulating solution with the correct gap size. We discuss the possible implications of this result for the nature of the insulating state above the Néel temperature, and the reliability of the $GW$+EDMFT scheme.
