Research interests

My scientific interest, in general, deals with the interactions between electrons in condenced matter. My first investigations under the guidance of Prof. I.V. Stasyuk (Institute for Condenced Matter Physics, Lviv, Ukraine) dealt with electron spectrum of cluster Cu-Cu in cuprate HTSC and were carried out using  CPA, diagrammatic technique for Hubbard X-operators within the Falicov-Kimball model and exact diagonalization of small clusters within the Hubbard model.  Then, under the guidance of Prof. L.D. Didukh (Ternopil State Technical University, Ternopil, Ukraine), ferromagnetic ordering stabilization and metal-insulator transition in the paramagnetic phase of Hubbard model as well as in  its generalizations by taking into account correlated hopping of electrons, orbital degeneracy of the conduction band, direct inter-atomic exchange interaction, indirect interactions (within the effective Hamiltonian method) have been studied by me. To this end different approximations were used to break off the sequence of equation for Green function on electron or Hubbard X-operators. The results of such study allow to interpret some peculiarities of electrical and magnetic properties of transition metal compounds, the electron-hole asymmetry, in particular. I also have some experience in application of  such technique for calculation of conductivity of generalized Hubbard models, electron spectra of s-d model and t-t� model.

Recently, in collaboration with Prof. dr hab. J.Spałek (Jagiellonian University, Krakow, Poland), I started the investigation on microscopic theory of charge and spin fluctuations in a correlated electron system with orbital degeneracy of the relevant electronic states.
