  abstract  = {In the last decade continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo in the hybridization expansion (CTHYB) was one of the most successful Monte Carlo techniques to describe correlated quantum phenomena in conjunction with dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). The first part of the thesis consists of algorithmical developments regarding CTHYB and DMFT. I provide a complete derivation and an extensive discussion of the expansion formula. We generalized it to treat spin-orbit coupling, and invented the superstate sampling algorithm to make it efficient enough for describing systems with general interactions, crystal fields and spin-orbit coupling at low temperatures. But CTHYB is known to fail in the standard implementation for equal-time correlators, certain higher-order Green's functions and the atomic limit; we discovered that its estimator for the Greens function is also inconsistent for Anderson impurities with finite, discrete baths. I focus then on further improvements of CTHYB that we have conceived and worked on, in particular for f-orbitals and for taking physical symmetries into account in the calculation of the Monte Carlo observables. The second part of the thesis presents selected physical applications of these methods. I show DMFT calculations of highest accuracy for elemental iron and nickel and discover a new mechanism of magnetic ordering in nickel: the ordering of band structure-induced local moments. Then we analyze the stability of this phenomenon under pressure and temperatures, that characterize in the Earth's core. We find, that the mechanism survives these conditions and may give a significant contribution to the generation of the Earth's magnetic field. The next topic is the stability of double Dirac fermions against electronic correlations. We find, that the Coulomb interaction in the corresponding material Bi2 CuO4 are strong enough to destroy the double Dirac cone, and substantial uniform pressure is necessary to restore them. In the last chapter I derive the properties of Higgs and Goldstone bosons from Ginzburg-Landau theory, and identify these excitations in a model of an excitonic magnet.},
