The pseudogap phenomena in High-$T_{{\rm c}}$ cuprates are investigated on the basis of the Hubbard model which includes only the on-site repulsive interaction $U$. We consider the pairing scenario for the pseudogap. The pseudogap arises…
Recent experiments find that the pseudogap phase of the high-T$_{c}$ cuprates ends suddenly at an electron doping $x^{*}$ when the Fermi surface change its shape from hole-like to electron-like. In this short note, we argue that the…

High magnetic fields have revealed a surprisingly small Fermi-surface in underdoped cuprates, possibly resulting from Fermi-surface reconstruction due to an order parameter that breaks translational symmetry of the crystal lattice. A…
One of the distinctive features of hole-doped cuprate superconductors is the onset of a `pseudogap' below a temperature $T^*$. Recent experiments suggest that there may be a connection between the existence of the pseudogap and the topology…

The electrical resistivity $\rho$ and Hall coefficient R$_H$ of the tetragonal single-layer cuprate Nd-LSCO were measured in magnetic fields up to $H = 37.5$ T, large enough to access the normal state at $T \to 0$, for closely spaced…

The first indication of a pseudogap in cuprates came from a sudden decrease of NMR Knight shift at a doping-dependent temperature $T^*(\delta)$. Since then, experiments have found phase transitions at a lower $T^*_\text{phase}(\delta)$.…
