The Mott Metal-Insulator Transition
The purpose of this book is twofold: first, to give a detailed presen- tion of the basic theoretical concopts for Mott insulators and, second, to test these ideas against the results from model calculations. Little do we reliably know about the Mott transition, and we are far from a complete understanding of the metal --insulator transition due to electr- electron interactions. Since the subject is far from being settled, different opinions on specific aspects of the Mott transition still persist.
