abstract = {Dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) has opened new
perspectives for dealing with strong electronic correlations
and the associated emergent phenomena. This successful
method has exploited the experience previously gained with
single-impurity models, e.g., the Anderson model,
transferring it to many-body lattice problems. The basis for
this breakthrough was the realization, 25 years ago, that
diagrammatic perturbation theory greatly simplifies in the
limit of infinite dimensions, so that the self-energy
becomes local. Nowadays DMFT, combined with
$\textit{ab-initio}$ density-functional techniques, is the
state-of-the art approach for strongly correlated materials.
The lectures collected in this volume range from reconting
the development of the dynamical mean-field theory to
applications of the LDA + DMFT approach to real materials
and modern developments. Among the latter, topics covered
are modern impurity solvers, the calculation of two-particle
Green functions, and method extensions beyond the
single-site approximation. Lectures on photoemission
spectroscopy provide the necessary contact to experiments.
The goal of the school is to introduce advanced graduate
students and up to the modern approaches to the realistic
modeling of strongly-correlated systems. A school of this
size and scope requires support and help from many sources.
The DFG Research Unit FOR 1346 provided the framework for
the school and a large part of the financial support. The
Institute for Advanced Simulation and the German Research
School for Simulation Sciences at the Forschungszentrum
Jülich provided additional funding and were vital for the
organization of the school and the production of this book.
The Institute for Complex Adaptive Matter (ICAM) offered
travel grants for selected international participants. The
nature of a school makes it desirable to have the
lecture-notes available when the lectures are given. This
way students get the chance to work through the lectures
thoroughly while their memory is still fresh. We are
therefore extremely grateful to the lecturers that, despite
tight deadlines, provided their manuscripts in time for the
production of this book. We are confident that the lecture
notes collected here will not only serve the participants of
the school but will also be useful for other students
entering the exciting field of strongly correlated
materials. We are grateful to Mrs. H. Lexis of the Verlag
des Forschungszentrum Jülich and to Mrs. D. Mans of the
Graphische Betriebe for providing their expert support in
producing the present volume on a tight schedule. We
heartily thank our students and postdocs who helped in
proofreading the manuscripts, often on quite short notice:
Michael Baumgärtel, Khaldoon Ghanem, Esmaeel Sarvestani,
Amin Kiani Sheikhabadi, Hermann Ulm, Guoren Zhang, and, in
particular, our native speaker Hunter Sims. Finally, our
special thanks go to Dipl.-Ing. R. Hölzle for his
invaluable advice on the innumerable questions concerning
the organization of such an endeavour, and to Mrs. L.
Snyders and Mrs. E. George for expertly handling all
practical issues.},
