We derive an effective dissipative quantum field theory for fluctuating orbital currents in clean $CuO_2$ sheets of high-$T_c$ cuprates, based on a three-band model. The Coulomb repulsion term between $Cu$- and $O$-sites is decoupled in…
A derivation of the t-J model of a highly-correlated solid is given starting from the general many-electron Hamiltonian with account of the non-orthogonality of atomic wave functions. Asymmetry of the Hubbard subbands (i.e. of ``electron''…

Here we report the first angle-resolved photoemission measurement on nearly optimally-doped multi-layer Tl-based superconducting cuprates (Tl-2212 and Tl-1223) and a comparison study to single layer (Tl-2201) compound. A "kink" in the band…
We study the quasiparticles of the one-band $t$-$J$ and $t$-$t'$-$t"$-$J$ models using a variational approximation that includes spin fluctuations in the vicinity of the hole. We explain why the spin fluctuations and the longer range…
