Correlated Electrons in Transition-Metal Compounds:
New Challenges
International Workshop
5 - 9 November 2018
The aim of this workshop is to foster collaborations between scientists in the wide field of transition-metal compounds, to highlight recent developments, and to bring together experimental and theoretical physicists. The focus lies on the interplay and mutual frustration of electron-electron interactions (involving spin, charge, and orbital degrees of freedom) and spin-orbit coupling effects.
Topics include
- Kitaev materials: iridates, RuCl3, and other TMCs
- New theoretical tools - from DMRG to DMFT
- Complex charge, spin, and orbital order
- Extended first principles approaches
- Skyrmions and chiral spin textures
- Frustrated quantum magnetism
- Novel 4d and 5d materials
- Negative charge-transfer gap
- High oxidation states
- Multiferroicity
- Orbital physics
