We study the pairing properties of the two-dimensional $t$-$t'$-$t''$-$J$ model, where $t'$ and $t''$ are second and third neighbor hoppings, at a doping level $x\approx0.1$. Recent studies of the $t$-$t'$-$J$ model find strong pairing for…
Using a doping-determined multiband model spectrum of a "typical'' cuprate the effective mass of the paired carriers is calculated on the whole doping scale. Large $m_{ab}$ values quench rapidly with leaving the very underdoped region.…

Three-dimensional $d$-wave ($j=2$) superconducting state may result from Cooper pairing in channels with different angular momenta and spin, such as $(l=0, s=2)$ or $(l=2, s=0)$. We consider spin-3/2 Luttinger fermions in the limit of small…
