Abstract
A central problem in modern condensed matter physics is the understanding of materials with strong electron correlations. Despite extensive work, the essential physics of many of these systems is not understood and there is very little ability to make predictions in this class of materials. In this manuscript we share our personal views on the major open problems in the field of correlated electron systems. We discuss some possible routes to make progress in this rich and fascinating field. This manuscript is the result of the vigorous discussions and deliberations that took place at Johns Hopkins University during a three-day workshop January 27, 28, and 29, 2020 that brought together six senior scientists and 46 more junior scientists. Our hope, is that the topics we have presented will provide inspiration for others working in this field and motivation for the idea that significant progress can be made on very hard problems if we focus our collective energies.
Author comments upon resubmission
We have replied to the referee and already gotten a favorable reply. We have resubmitted the manuscript under SciPost Physics Community Reports. We hope that it can be published soon.
List of changes
We have added additional clarifying comments to captions for Figures 8, 10, 13 and 14 as requested by the referee.
We have also added additional information to Figures 11, 12, 19.
We have read through again and corrected a number of typographical errors.
