A critical result in superconductivity is that flat bands, though dispersionless, can still host nonzero superfluid weight due to quantum geometry. We show that the derivation of the mean field superfluid weight in previous literature is…
A microscopic theory of superconductivity is formulated within an effective $p$-$d$ Hubbard model for a CuO2 plane. By applying the Mori-type projection technique, the Dyson equation is derived for the Green functions in terms of Hubbard…
Full or empty narrow bands near the Fermi level are known to enhance superconductivity by promoting scattering processes and spin fluctuations. Here, we demonstrate that doublon-holon fluctuations in systems with half-filled narrow bands…
