High-$T_c$ superconductors are usually described as strongly correlated electronic systems. This feature deeply affects the one-particle and two-particle properties of the system. In particular, a large incoherent background developes on…
Correlations between electrons and the effective dimensionality are crucial factors that shape the properties of an interacting electron system. For example, the onsite Coulomb repulsion, U, may inhibit, or completely block the intersite…
