Since the discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in the cuprates a theoretical understanding of their phase diagram has remained one of the major outstanding problems in condensed matter physics. Here we propose an effective…
We present an exact ground state solution of a quantum dimer model introduced in Ref.[1], which features ordinary bosonic spin-singlet dimers as well as fermionic dimers that can be viewed as bound states of spinons and holons in a…
We show here that many of the normal state properties of the cuprates can result from the new charge 2e bosonic field which we have recently (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 99}, 46404 (2007) and Phys. Rev. B 77, 014512 (2008)) shown to exist in the…
The microscopic theory of superconducting (SC) state in the SU(2) slave-boson model is developed. We show how the pseudogap and Fermi surface (FS) segments in the normal state develop into a d-wave gap in the superconducting state. Even…
I discuss here some well established experimental facts which have been shown to be generic of the pseudogap in underdoped cuprates. Some recent developments on Cellular Dynamic Mean Field Theories of the doped Hubbard model on a square…
We investigate the behavior of the quasi-particle energy gap near quantum phase transitions in a two-dimensional disordered boson Hubbard model at a commensurate filling. Via Monte Carlo simulations of ensembles with fixed numbers of…
We study a simple model of a two-dimensional s-wave superconductor in the presence of a random potential in the regime of large disorder. We first use the Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG) approach to show that, with increasing disorder the…
The physical origin of cuprate high-temperature superconductor pseudogaps remains debatable. We point out that the indication of such excitation is hidden in the usual expression for the quasiparticle energy. It can be realized on a…
We review the contribution of infrared spectroscopy to the study of the pseudogap in high temperature superconductors. The pseudogap appears as a depression of the frequency dependent conductivity in the c-axis direction and seems to be…
Several models of the electronic spectrum in the pseudogap state of underdoped cuprates have been proposed to explain ARPES and STM measurements, which reveal only truncated Fermi pockets instead of a full metallic Fermi surface. We…
A simple interlayer pair tunneling is solved exactly. We find that in the normal state spin-1/2 particle and hole excitations are gapped. But the state is an unusual metal, characterized by novel fermionic spin zero and charge +2e and -2e…
Quantum ground states which arise at atomically controlled oxide interfaces provide an opportunity to address key questions in condensed matter physics, including the nature of two-dimensional (2D) metallic behaviour often observed adjacent…
A possible explanation for the existence of the cuprate "pseudogap" state is that it is a d-wave superconductor without quantum phase rigidity. Transport and thermodynamic studies provide compelling evidence that supports this proposal, but…
The breakdown of the celebrated Fermi liquid theory in the strange metal phase is the central enigma of correlated quantum matter. Motivated by recent experiments reporting short-lived carriers, along with the ubiquitous observations of…
The thermal disordering of the $d$-density wave, proposed to be the origin of the pseudogap state of high temperature superconductors, is suggested to be the same as that of the statistical mechanical model known as the 6-vertex model. The…
The mechanism of high temperature superconductivity is not resolved for so long because the normal state of cuprates is not yet understood. Here we show that the normal state pseudo-gap exhibits an unexpected non-monotonic temperature…
We have proposed earlier a paired cluster (PC) model for high T_c superconductivity mechanism. We show here that this model is able to explain the pseudogap origin and other gap related properties of cuprates. As per PC model, singlet…
By using the gauge-invariant kinetic equation approach [Yang and Wu, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 98}, 094507 (2018); {\bf 100}, 104513 (2019)], we construct the coupled dual dynamics of macroscopic phase coherence and microscopic electronic fluids in…
The anomalous properties of High-$T_{{\rm c}}$ cuprates are investigated both in the normal state and in the superconducting state. In particular, we pay atte ntion to the pseudogap in the normal state and the phase transition from the pse…
Since the discovery of the cuprate high-temperature superconductivity in 1986, a universal phase diagram has been constructed experimentally and numerous theoretical models have been proposed. However, there remains no consensus on the…
