Periodic Anderson model with electron-phonon correlated conduction band

Peng Zhang, Peter Reis, Ka-Ming Tam +4

This paper reports dynamical mean field calculations for the periodic Anderson model in which the conduction band is coupled to phonons. Motivated in part by recent attention to th…

The screening of 4f moments and delocalization in the compressed light rare earths

A. K. McMahan, R. T. Scalettar, M. Jarrell

Spin and charge susceptibilities and the 4f^n, 4f^{n-1}, and 4f^{n+1} configuration weights are calculated for compressed Ce (n=1), Pr (n=2), and Nd (n=3) metals using dynamical me…

Charge Fluctuations and the Valence Transition in Yb under Pressure

E. R. Ylvisaker, J. Kuneš, A. K. McMahan +1

We present a dynamical mean field theory study of the valence transition () in elemental, metallic Yb under pressure. Our calculations reproduce the observed val…

Spectral Properties of delta-Plutonium: Sensitivity to 5f Occupancy

Jian-Xin Zhu, A. K. McMahan, M. D. Jones +4

By combining the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean field theory (DMFT), we report a systematic analysis of the spectral properties of -plutonium with varying…

Combined local-density and dynamical mean field theory calculations for the compressed lanthanides Ce, Pr, and Nd

A. K. McMahan

This paper reports calculations for compressed Ce (4f^1), Pr (4f^2), and Nd (4f^3) using a combination of the local-density approximation (LDA) and dynamical mean field theory (DMF…

Thermodynamic and spectral properties of compressed Ce calculated by the merger of the local density approximation and dynamical mean field theory

A. K. McMahan, K. Held, R. T. Scalettar

We have calculated thermodynamic and spectral properties of Ce metal over a wide range of volume and temperature, including the effects of 4f electron correlations, by the merger o…
