Improving first principles-based methods for correlated materials modeling

Since its inception, the widespread use of density functional theory (DFT) as a cost-effective tool for determining the electronic structure of matter has continued to grow in most scientific fields. However, the mean-field description offered by semi-local approximations to the exchangecorrelation...
