Abstracts

EN

The experimental manifestation of electron correlation effects in the V_2O_3 and NiS_2 systems are reviewed, and recent elementary theories for interpreting the many different types of metal-insulator transitions based on these theories are provided. Research on the critical phenomena displayed by the interacting electrons in these systems is also reviewed.
