Ferromagnetic diagonal stripe states in the two-dimensional Hubbard model with $U\lesssim\infty$

We have performed a variational Monte Carlo simulation to study the ground state of a two-dimensional Hubbard model on a square lattice in the strong coupling region. The energy gain of possible inhomogeneous electron states are computed as a function of $U$ when the hole density $ε=1/8$ and next nearest-neighbor hopping $t'/t=-0.30$. The bond-centered ferromagnetic diagonal stripe state is stabilized in the strong coupling region ($U/t\geq$16), which is due to the gain of both kinetic energy and on-site Coulomb interaction energy due to the holon moving over the ferromagnetic domain and the gain of kinetic-exchange-interaction energy at the antiferromagnetic domain wall.

Phase diagram of the three-band d-p model based on the optimization variational Monte Carlo method

The phase diagram of cuprate high-temperature superconductors is investigated on the basis of the three-band d-p model. We use the optimization variational Monte Carlo method, where improved many-body wave functions have been proposed to make the ground-state wave function more precise. We investigate the stability of antiferromagnetic state by changing the band parameters such as the hole number, level difference $Δ_{dp}$ between $d$ and $p$ electrons and transfer integrals. We show that the antiferromagnetic correlation weakens when $Δ_{dp}$ decreases and the pure $d$-wave superconducting phase may exist in this region. We present phase diagrams including antiferromagnetic and superconducting regions by varying the band parameters. The phase diagram obtained by changing the doping rate $x$ contains antiferromagnetic, superconducting and also phase-separated phases. We propose that high-temperature superconductivity will occur near the antiferromagnetic boundary in the space of band parameters.

Phase diagram and mechanism of superconductivity in a strongly correlated electron system

We investigate the phase diagram of two-dimensional (2D) Hubbard model by employing the optimization variational Monte Carlo method. The 2D Hubbard model is the most simple electronic model for cuprate high-temperature superconductors. The phase diagram consists of three regions; they are antiferromagnetic insulator (AFI) region, superconducting (SC) region and the coexistent region of superconductivity and antiferromgantism. The phase diagram obtained by numerical calculations well agrees with the experimental phase diagram for high-temperature cuprates. We mainly focused on the effect of $t'$ on the antiferromagnetic (AF) correlation and the AFI region. The area of the AF phase increases when we include $t'$ and thus the pure $d$-wave SC phase decreases. The AFI phase near half filling decreases as $|t'|$ increases.

Mott transition in cuprate high-temperature superconductors

In this study, we investigate the metal-insulator transition of charge transfer type in high-temperature cuprates. We first show that we must introduce a new band parameter in the three-band d-p model to reproduce the Fermi surface of high temperature cuprates such as BSCCO, YBCO and Hg1201. We present a new wave function of a Mott insulator based on the improved Gutzwiller function, and show that there is a transition from a metal to a charge-transfer insulator for such parameters by using the variational Monte Carlo method. This transition occurs when the level difference $Δ_{dp}\equiv ε_p-ε_d$ between d and p orbitals reaches a critical value $(Δ_{dp})_c$. The energy gain $ΔE$, measured from the limit of large $Δ_{dp}$, is proportional to $1/Δ_{dp}$ for $Δ_{dp}>(Δ_{dp})_c$: $ΔE\propto -t_{dp}^2/Δ_{dp}$. We obtain $(Δ_{dp})_c\simeq 2t_{dp}$ using the realistic band parameters.

Correlated-Electron Systems and High Temperature Superconductivity

We present recent theoretical results on superconductivity in correlated-electron systems, especially in the two-dimensional Hubbard model and the three-band d-p model. The mechanism of superconductivity in high-temperature superconductors has been extensively studied on the basis of various electronic models and also electron-phonon models. In this study we investigate the properties of superconductivity in correlated-electron systems by using numerical methods such as the variational Monte Carlo method and the quantum Monte Carlo method. The Hubbard model is one of basic models for strongly correlated electron systems, and is regarded as the model of cuprate high temperature superconductors. The d-p model is more realistic model for cuprates. The superconducting condensation energy obtained by adopting the Gutzwiller ansatz is in reasonable agreement with the condensation energy estimated for YBa_2Cu_3O_7. We show the phase diagram of the ground state using this method. We have further investigated the stability of striped and checkerboard states in the under-doped region. The relationship of the hole density x and incommensurability δ, δ\sim x, is satisfied in the lower doping region, as indicated by the variational Monte Carlo calculations. We have performed a variational Monte Carlo simulation on a two-dimensional t-t'-t"-U Hubbard model with a Bi-2212 type band structure and found that the 4\times 4 period checkerboard spin modulation, that is characterized by multi Q vectors, is stabilized. We also present a new algorithm of the diagonalization quantum Monte Carlo method that is a method for the evaluation of expectation values without the negative sign difficulty. We show that the pair correlation function is not enhanced at half-filling, and is indeed enhanced with hole doping.

Superconducting Condensation Energy of the Two-Dimensional Hubbard Model in the Large-Negative-t' Region

We compute the superconducting condensation energies Econd of Hg1201 and Tl2201 cuprates by applying the variational Monte Carlo method to the two-dimensional Hubbard model, first, with the specific band parameters t' = -2t" = -0.25t appropriate for these highest-Tc single-CuO2-layer cuprates; t, t' and t" are the first-, second- and third-neighbor transfer energies, respectively. In the range of on-site Coulomb energy U of (7\sim10)t with optimal doping, we succeed in obtaining the bulk-limit Econd values by extrapolating the results. They sharply increase with increasing U and become comparable to experimental values when U \approx 9t. Next, Econd values at t' = -2t" = -0.18t demonstrate that with a fixed U the bulk-limit Econd quickly increases with a decrease in |t'| = 2t" in the large-|t'| region. Finally, we argue that the remoteness of the apex oxygen from the planar Cu in the two cuprates is considered to increase U and bring about the experimental magnitude of Econd. The present scheme explains the observed correlation between Tc and t' among cuprates.

Incommensurate Antiferromagnetism Coexisting with Superconductivity in Two-Dimensional d-p Model

Numerical studies of the two-dimensional d-p model using the Gutzwiller ansatz have exhibited the incommensurate antiferromagnetic state coexisting with superconductivity in the under- and lightly doped regions. Our results are based on the variational Monte Carlo method for the three-band Hubbard model with d and p orbitals. We obtained the finite superconducting condensation energy for the coexistent sate at the doping rate $x=1/8$, 1/12, and 1/16, up to the systems of 256 unit cells with 768 atoms (oxygen and copper atoms). The phase diagram for the hole-doped case is consistent with recent results reported for layered high temperature cuprates.

Fermi arc in doped high-Tc cuprates

We propose a $d$-density wave induced by the spin-orbit coupling in the CuO plane. The spectral function of high-temperature superconductors in the under doped and lightly doped regions is calculated in order to explain the Fermi arc spectra observed recently by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We take into account the tilting of CuO octahedra as well as the on-site Coulombrepulsive interaction; the tilted octahedra induce the staggered transfer integral between $p_{x,y}$ orbitals and Cu $t_{2g}$ orbitals, and bring about nontrivial effects of spin-orbit coupling for the $d$ electrons in the CuO plane. The spectral weight shows a peak at around ($π/2$,$π/2$) for light doping and extends around this point forming an arc as the carrier density increases, where the spectra for light doping grow continuously to be the spectra in the optimally doped region. This behavior significantly agrees with that of the angle-resolved photoemissionspectroscopy spectra. Furthermore, the spin-orbit term and staggered transfer effectively induce a flux state, a pseudo-gap with time-reversal symmetry breaking. We have a nodal metallic state in the light-doping case since the pseudogap has a $d_{x^2-y^2}$ symmetry.

Lattice distortions, incommensurability, and stripes in the electric model for high-Tc cuprates

Striped superconductivity with lattice distortions is investigated based on the three-band Hubbard model for high-Tc cuprates. A stable inhomogeneous striped state is determined in the low-temperature tetragonal (LTT) phase with lattice distortions using a quantum variational Monte Carlo method. The ground state has vertical or horizontal hole-rich arrays coexisting with incommensurate magnetism and superconductivity induced by several percent lattice distortions. The superconductivity order parameter oscillates according to the inhomogeneity in the antiferromagnetic background with its maxima in the hole-rich regions, and the superconductivity condensation energy is reduced as the doping rate decreases.

Stripe formation in high-Tc superconductors

The non-uniform ground state of the two-dimensional three-band Hubbard model for the oxide high-Tc superconductors is investigated using a variational Monte Carlo method. We examine the effect produced by holes doped into the antiferromagnetic (AF) background in the underdoped region. It is shown that the AF state with spin modulations and stripes is stabilized du to holes travelling in the CuO plane. The structures of the modulated AF spins are dependent upon the parameters used in the model. The effect of the boundary conditions is reduced for larger systems. We show that there is a region where incommensurability is proportional to the hole density. Our results give a consistent description of stripes observed by the neutron- scattering experiments based on the three-band model for CuO plane.

Spin Splitting in de Haas-van Alp-hen Oscillation in Two-Dimensional Two-Band Systems

We study the effects of the Zeeman term on the de Haas van Alphen (dHvA) oscillation in two-dimensional two-band systems. We found that the Fourier transform amplitudes of the oscillations are not described by the spin reduction factor in the Lifshitz-Kosevich formalism in two-dimensional systems. The anomalous dependence on the effective $g$-factor can be observed by tilting-angle dependence of the dHvA oscillation in quasi-two-dimensional organic conductors and Sr$_2$RuO$_4$.

Possible Spin-Singlet Superconductivity in (TMTSF)2X: Superconducting Transition Temperature in a Magnetic Field

We study the transition temperature Tc(H) of a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) superconductivity which is derived from the quantum effect of an electron motion in a strong magnetic field. We calculate Tc(H) of both isotropic and anisotropic superconductivity by taking account of the optimal momentum of the Cooper pairs and the effect of higher harmonic terms along second conducting axis in the tight-binding model. We find that, although Tc(H) of the spin-singlet superconductivity is suppressed strongly by the Zeeman effect, the suppression of Tc(H) is not very severe if we take the optimal pair-momentum and the higher harmonic terms into account. The obtained Tc(H) for the spin-singlet superconductivity is consistent with the experimental results in TMTSF salts.

Enhancement of de Haas-van Alphen Oscillation due to Spin in the Magnetic Breakdown System

The effects of the Zeeman term on the de Haas-van Alphen oscillation is studied in the magnetic breakdown system. We find that the amplitude of the oscillation with the frequencies of $f_β + f_α$ and $f_β + 2f_α$ are enhanced by the Zeeman term, while they are expected to be reduced in the semiclassical theory. A possible interpretation of the experiments in organic conductors is discussed.

Superconductivity of Quasi-Two-Dimensional Tight-Binding Electrons in a Strong Magnetic Field

We have investigated the transition temperature $T_{\rm c}(H)$ of superconductiv ity in quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) tight-binding electrons in a strong magnetic field. When the magnetic field is parallel to 2D conducting plane, $T_{\rm c}(H) $ of the Q2D superconductor is shown to increase in an oscillatory manner as the magnetic field becomes large and to reach $T_{\rm c}(0)$ in a strong magnetic f ield limit for the spin-triplet superconductor. We consider the cases of on-site and nearest sites attractive interaction, and calculate the magnetic field depe ndences of the transition temperature for various types of symmetry. The first o rder transition from $p_y$-wave to $p_x$-wave is shown to occur at $H\sim 35$T w hen the magnetic field is parallel to the $y$ direction, which will be observed in a triplet superconductor, Sr$_2$RuO$_4$.

Superconductivity of Quasi-One and Quasi-Two Dimensional Tight-Binding Electrons in Magnetic Field

The upper critical field $H_{c2}(T)$ of the tight-binding electrons in the three-dimensional lattice is investigated. The electrons make Cooper pairs between the eigenstates with the same energy in the strong magnetic field. The transition lines in the quasi-one dimensional case are shown to deviate from the previously obtained results where the hopping matrix elements along the magnetic field are neglected. In the absence of the Pauli pair breaking the transition temperature $T_c(H)$ of the quasi-two dimensional electrons is obtained to oscillationally increase as the magnetic field becomes large and reaches to $T_c(0)$ in the strong field as in the quasi-one dimensional case.

Anisotropic Superconductivity of Quasi-One-Dimensional Electrons in Magnetic Field

We study theoretically the transition temperature of a quasi-one-dimensional anisotropic superconductor in a magnetic field, which is thought to be realized in organic conductors,(TMTSF)2X. In the weak field limit,-dH_c2/dT for the anisotropic singlet is shown to be \sqrt{3} times larger than that for the anisotropic triplet in the case of attractive interaction of electrons at nearest-sites along c axis and magnetic field along the b axis. In the strong field region the transition temperature for spin-triplet is restored to zero field critical temperature while the anisotropic spin-singlet is suppressed by the Zeeman effect.

Superconductivity of Quasi-One-Dimensional Electrons in Strong Magnetic Field

The superconductivity of quasi-one-dimensional electrons in the magnetic field is studied. The system is described as the one-dimensional electrons with no frustration due to the magnetic field. The interaction is assumed to be attractive between electrons in the nearest chains, which corresponds to the lines of nodes of the energy gap in the absence of the magnetic field. The effective interaction depends on the magnetic field and the transverse momentum. As the magnetic field becomes strong, the transition temperature of the spin-triplet superconductivity oscillates, while that of the spin-singlet increases monotonically.
