| contents | Dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) provides an optimal local approximation for correlated lattice systems by mapping the lattice onto a self-consistent effective impurity model. To account for the missing long-range correlations, we propose a novel extended approach, which we term fluctuating dynamical mean-field theory (fDMFT). It incorporates collective fluctuations of auxiliary impurity models across different sites via functional integration. Technically, this method involves obtaining a family of DMFT solutions on a grid for a self-consistent auxiliary classical field applied to the lattice. While the result can, in principle, be improved diagrammatically, we find that the minimal version of the theory already yields accurate results, with lowest-order diagrammatic corrections offering only minor improvements. This consistent framework, based on our fluctuating local field concept, demonstrates superior performance for the nearly half-filled Hubbard model compared to other known diagrammatic extensions of DMFT. |
