The pseudogap phase of the underdoped cuprate superconductors harbours diverse manifestations of different ordered electronic-states, and then these ordered electronic-states coexist or compete with superconductivity. Here starting from the…

Underdoped cuprates exhibit a normal-state pseudogap, and their spins and doped carriers tend to spatially separate into 1- or 2-D stripes. Some view these as central to superconductivity, others as peripheral and merely competing. Using…

When holes move in the background of strong antiferromagnetic correlation, two effects with different spatial scale emerge, leading to a much reduced hopping integral with an additional phase factor. An effective Hamiltonian is then…
