We use the Gutzwiller variational theory to investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of fcc nickel. Our particular focus is on the effects of the spin-orbit coupling. Unlike standard relativistic band-structure theories, we reproduce the experimental magnetic-moment direction and we explain the change of the Fermi-surface topology that occurs when the magnetic-moment direction is rotated by an external magnetic field. The Fermi surface in our calculation deviates from early de Haas-van Alphen results. We attribute these discrepancies to an incorrect interpretation of the raw de Haas-van Alphen data.
