The interplay between charge density waves (CDWs) and high-temperature superconductivity is currently under intense investigation. Experimental research on this issue is difficult because CDW formation in bulk copper-oxides is strongly…

The cuprate high temperature superconductors develop spontaneous charge density wave (CDW) order below a temperature $T_{CDW}$ and over a wide range of hole doping (p). An outstanding challenge in the field is to understand whether this…

When Cooper pairs are formed with finite center-of-mass momentum, the defining characteristic is a spatially modulating superconducting energy gap $\Delta(r)$. Recently, this concept has been generalized to the pair density wave (PDW) state…

We have used resonant x-ray scattering to determine the momentum dependent charge correlations in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.55}$ samples with highly ordered chain arrays of oxygen acceptors (ortho-II structure). The results reveal nearly critical,…

The discovery of charge- and spin-density-wave (CDW/SDW) orders in superconducting cuprates has altered our perspective on the nature of high-temperature superconductivity (SC). However, it has proven difficult to fully elucidate the…

For decades, superconductivity in high-Tc cuprates has been viewed as a competitor that suppresses charge-density-wave (CDW) order by reducing its amplitude and spatial extent. Here, we show that this picture is incomplete, as…

We study the charge-density-wave order and its competition with superconductivity in the one-band Hubbard model for high-$T_c$ superconducting cuprates. We use cluster dynamical mean field theory (CDMFT) at $T=0$. The one-band Hubbard model…
