20. When considering single-band models in DMFT, the locality of all irreducible vertices ensures that all vertex corrections in the optical conductivity exactly vanish (Refs. and). While this may be not rigorously true for a (realistic) multiorbital case, it remains usually a good approximation (Ref.) when the DMFT assumptions are well fulfilled.

96. The structure of the optical matrix elements as well as (unpublished) LDA+DMFT calculations seem to indicate a relatively strong anisotropy between the optical conductivity measured perpendicularly or parallel to the c axis (i.e., along the direction of the V-V pairs in the conventional unit cell). This fact should be always kept in mind when analyzing experimental optical data, as even a small misalignment of the sample may alter considerably the predicted result.
