Ab Initio Downfolding Based on the GW Approximation for Infinite-Layer Nickelates

We derive an effective three-orbital model for the infinite-layer nickelates based on the band structure obtained by the GW approximation (GWA), where we consider the Ni 3dx2−y2 and O 2p orbitals forming the σ-bond. In the GWA, the self-energy correction to the local density approximation (LDA) incr...
