‘Embedding’ methods which try to take the accuracy of quantum chemistry and allow access to large condensed phase systems are increasingly popular at the moment, encompassing approaches from QM/MM and density-embedding, to the DMFT method in the physics community. In this talk, I will present a new embedding method, where the intrinsically quantum-mechanical entanglement between subsystems is included by construction. This allows strongly correlated materials to be treated, overcoming many of the limitations of other wavefunction based embedding approaches.
