We study a two-band Hubbard model using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with the exact diagonalization method. At the electron density $n=2$, a transition from a band-insulator to a correlated semimetal occurs when the on-site…

Deviations from Fermi liquid behavior are well documented in the normal state of the cuprate superconductors, and some of these differences seem to be related to pre-transitional features appearing at temperatures above T$_c$. The…
We study the Hubbard model with parameters relevant to the cuprates, using variational Monte Carlo with projected d-wave states. For doping 0 < x < 0.35 we obtain a superconductor whose order parameter tracks the observed nonmonotonic…
