abstract = {We investigate the magnetic couplings in Sr2IrO4 in the
Mott-insulating picture, combining density-functional
theory, dynamical mean-field theory, and many-body
perturbation theory. We first determine the form of the
jeff=1/2 pseudospin via the local-density-approximation +
dynamical mean-field theory approach. Next we study the
magnetic interactions in the strong-to-intermediate coupling
regime. To this end, we calculate the superexchange
pseudospin tensors Γ1, Γ2, and Γ3 up to fourth order and
analyze their dependence on the screened Coulomb interaction
integrals U and J. We show that, due to term cancellations,
the experimental nearest-neighbor coupling Γ1 is reasonably
well reproduced for a whole range of realistic (U,J) values.
We show that increasing the Hund's rule coupling J (within
the window of realistic values) can lead to large
fourth-order contributions, which could explain the
ferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor coupling Γ2 extracted
from the spin-wave dispersion. This regime is characterized
by a sizable ring exchange K. For (U,J) values that yield a
Mott insulator with a half-filled jeff=1/2 state, however,
fourth-order terms remain minor even if the gap is small.
For no realistic parameters, we find a sizable
next-next-nearest-neighbor coupling Γ3∼|Γ2|. Possible
implications are discussed.},
