Though most fermionic Mott insulators order at low temperatures, ordering is ancillary to their insulating behaviour. Our emphasis here is on disentangling ordering from the intrinsic strongly correlated physics of a doped half-filled band.…

The one-particle spectral function of a state formed by superconducting (SC) clusters is studied via Monte Carlo techniques. The clusters have similar SC amplitudes but randomly distributed phases. This state is stabilized by the…
We study a model for low doped cuprates where holes aggregate into oriented stripe segments which have a vortex and an antivortex fixed to the extremes. We argue that due to the interaction between segments a state with macroscopic…
The Fermi surface in the state of cuprates is highly unusual because it appears to consist of disconnected segments called arcs. Their very existence challenges the traditional concept of a Fermi surface as closed contours of gapless…
The superconducting properties of a recently proposed phenomenological model for a weakly doped antiferromagnet are analyzed, taking into account fluctuations of the phase of the order parameter. In this model, we assume that the doped…
We study the timely issue of charge order checkerboard patterns observed in a variety of cuprate superconductors. We suggest a minimal model in which strong quantum fluctuations in the vicinity of a single antiferromagnetic quantum critical…
Mean-field study of the stripe structures is conducted for a hole-doped Hubbard model. For bond-directed stripes, the Fermi surface consists of segments of an open surface and the boundaries of the hole pockets which appear in the diagonal…
A series of recent experiments on the Nernst effect, upper critical field $H_{c2}$ and enhanced diamagnetic magnetization $M$ by Wang et al (PRB 73, 024510), were interpreted as to provide evidence for the pseudogap scenario which…
The complexity of competing orders in cuprates has recently been multiplied by a number of bulk evidences of charge ordering with wavevector that connects the antinodal region of the Fermi surface. This results contradicts many…

We study the properties of a spin-density-wave antiferromagnetic mean-field ground state with d-wave superconducting (DSC) correlations. This ground state always gains energy by Cooper pairing. It would fail to superconduct at half-filling…
We revisit the effective theory for fluctuating spin stripes coupled to a Fermi surface, and consider the parameter regime where a spin nematic phase intervenes between the spin density wave state and the symmetric state. It is shown that…
