Abstract: We perform combined density functional and dynamical mean-field calculations to study the pyrochlore iridates Lu$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$, Y$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$ and Eu$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$. Both single-site and cluster dynamical mean-field calculations are performed and spin-orbit coupling is included. Paramagnetic metallic phases,… read more here.

Abstract: Combining density functional theory (DFT) and embedded dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) methods, we study the metal-insulator transition in R_{2}Ir_{2}O_{7} (R=Y, Eu, Sm, Nd, Pr, and Bi) and the topological nature of the insulating compounds. Accurate… read more here.
