Correlated electron materials display a rich variety of notable properties ranging from unconventional superconductivity to metal-insulator transitions. These properties are of interest from the point of view of applications but are hard to treat theoretically, as they result from multiple competing energy scales. Although possible in more weakly correlated materials, theoretical design and spectroscopy of strongly correlated electron materials have been a difficult challenge for many years. By treating all the relevant energy scales with sufficient accuracy, complementary advances in Green's functions and quantum Monte Carlo methods open a path to first-principles computational property predictions in this class of materials.
