Overdoped high-temperature cuprate superconductors have been widely believed to be described by the physics of d-wave BCS-like superconductivity. However, recent measurements indicate that as the doping is increased, the superfluid density…
The ground state and transport properties of the Lieb lattice flat band in the presence of an attractive Hubbard interaction are considered. It is shown that the superfluid weight can be large even for an isolated and strictly flat band.…
In this paper, we discuss the c axis optical conductivity Re [sigma_c(omega)] in the high T_c superconductors, in the superconducting state. The basic premise of this work is that electrons travelling along the c axis between adjacent CuO_2…
Significant progress towards a theory of high-temperature superconductivity in cuprates has been achieved via the study of effective one- and three-band Hubbard models. Nevertheless, material-specific predictions, while essential for…

A phase diagram is drawn in a parameter space of the nearly half-filled single band two-dimensional Hubbard model with U/t, t'/t and n as the parameters, U, t, t' and n being the on-site interaction, the nearest and second nearest neighbor…
High-$T_c$ superconductors are characterized by very low carrier densities. This feature leads to two fundamental consequences: on one hand the Fermi energies are correspondingly small and they can be of the same order of phonon…
We develop here a general formalism for multi-orbital Mott systems which can be used to understand dynamical and static spectral weight transfer. We find that the spectral weight transferred from the high energy scales is greatly increased…
This work investigates the quantum transport in a narrow constriction acted upon by a finite-range transversely polarized time-dependent electric field. A generalized scattering-matrix method is developed that has incorporated a…

Superconductivity is traditionally viewed as a low-temperature phenomenon. Within the BCS theory this is understood to result from the fact that the pairing of electrons takes place only close to the usually two-dimensional Fermi surface…
Transport in electronic devices based on high-Tc superconductors depends critically on the charge redistribution at interfaces, since the band structure is modified on a local scale. Using the density functional theory approach for relaxed…

Cuprate superconductors have long been known to exhibit an energy gap that persists high above the superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$). Debate has continued now for decades as to whether it is a precursor superconducting gap or a…
