摘要
Fermi surfaces of PrOs4Sb12 are investigated based on the LDA + U method with many U values. The 42 electrons in PrOs4Sb12 are experimentally suggested to be localized, in contrast with other heavy-fermion superconductors. This study has revealed that the 4f electrons remain localized with small U = 0.1 Ry, then become itinerant with U = 0.05 Ry, where the topology of the Fermi surfaces are changed and no longer explains the dHvA measurement.
