Density Matrix Embedding Theory and Strongly Correlated Lattice Systems

Abstract

This thesis describes the development of the density matrix embedding theory (DMET) and its applications to lattice strongly correlated electron problems, including a review of DMET theory and algorithms (Ch 2), investigation of finite size scaling (Ch 3), Applications to high-temperature superconductivity (Ch 4-6), a framework for finite-temperature DMET (Ch 7).
