Research Interests

We are mainly interested in material systems with nontrivial band topology and/or enhanced electron-electron correlations. By developing advanced quantum many-body methods and performing large-scale numerical simulations, we try to understand their electronic and magnetic properties in the ground and low-energy excited states. The many-body methods at hand include: dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT), cluster DMFT, dynamical cluster approximation, dual-fermion approach, non-local expansion and parquet equations, etc.
