The main theme of the project will be to apply the ideas of the LDA+DMFT to various rare-earth and actinide impurities and dopants located in the bulk and on the surface of the topogical insulators, with emphasis on systematic description of the many-body ground state and excitation spectra. Comparison will be made between the calculated electronic structure and the experimental x-ray circular magetci dicroism, and photoemission spectra. The influence of the spin-orbit coupling and the magnetic anisotropy on the Kondo singlet will be analysed.
