Recently, a 80 K superconductor was discovered in La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ under high pressure. Density function theory (DFT) calculations identify $d_{x^2-y^2}$, $d_{z^2}$ as the active orbitals on the bilayer square lattice with a $d^{8-x}$…
Quantum mechanics and gravitation are two pillars of modern physics. Despite their success in describing the physical world around us, they seem to be incompatible theories. There are suggestions that one of these theories must be…

The ground-state phase diagram is numerically studied for an electronic model consisting of the spin exchange term (J) and the correlated hopping term (t_3: the three-site term). This model has no single-particle hopping and the ratio of…

We investigate a two-orbital model for iron-based superconductors to elucidate the effect of interplay between electron correlation and Jahn-Teller electron-phonon coupling by using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with the exact…
We present numerical evidence that the hopping of electrons between chains described by the $t-J$ model is coherent in the integrable cases ($J=0$ and $J=2$) and essentially incoherent otherwise. This effect is {\it not} related to the…
