High-transition-temperature (high-T_c) superconductivity in cuprates has been discovered for more than three decades, but the underlying mechanism remains a mystery. Cuprates are the only unconventional superconducting family that host bulk…
Employing unbiased sign-problem-free quantum Monte Carlo, we investigate the effects of long-range Coulomb forces on BEC of bipolarons using a model of bond phonon-modulated electron hopping. In absence of long-range repulsion, this model…
