A detailed tight-binding analysis of the electron band structure of the CuO_2 plane of layered cuprates is performed within a sigma-band Hamiltonian including four orbitals - Cu3d_x^2-y^2, Cu4s, O2p_x, and O2p_y. Both the experimental and…
The Fermi surface of most hole-doped cuprates is close to a Van Hove singularity at the M point. A two-dimensional electronic system, whose Fermi surface is close to a Van Hove singularity shows a variety of weak coupling instabilities. It…
Motivated by the recent experimental determination of the three-dimensional Fermi surface of overdoped La-based cuprate superconductors [Horio et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 2018, 121, 077004], we revisit the tight-binding parameterization of…

Numerical evidence for superconductivity in the single-band Hubbard model is elusive or ambiguous despite extensive study, raising the question of whether the single-band Hubbard model is a faithful low energy effective model for cuprates,…
The pinning of the Fermi level to the van Hove singularity and the formation of flat bands in the two-dimensional t-t' Hubbard model is investigated by the renormalization group technique. The "van-Hove" scenario of non-Fermi-liquid…
We present a robust tight-binding description, based on the Slater-Koster formalism, of the band structure of H$_3$S in the {\em Im}$\bar{3}${\em m} structure, stable in the range of pressure $P = 180-220$ GPa. We show that the interatomic…
Cosine-shaped bands that occur in DFT-based electronic band structures for MgB2 are further analyzed with calculations along reciprocal directions parallel to the high symmetry G-A direction at regular intervals along G-M. Band degeneracies…

While the beginning decade of the high-Tc cuprates era passed under domination of local theories, Abrikosov was one of the few who took seriously the electronic band structure of cuprates, stressing the importance of an extended Van Hove…
The three-band Emery model is reduced to a single-particle quantum model of Falicov-Kimball type, by allowing only up-spins to hop, and forbidding double occupation by projection. It is used to study the effects of geometric obstruction on…
We propose that spin-triplet pairing mechanism due to disconnected Fermi surfaces proposed in our previous study [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 63} 174507 (2001)] may be at work in a recently discovered superconductor Na$_x$CoO$_2$ $\cdot y$ H$_2$O. We…

When a van-Hove singularity is located in the vicinity of the Fermi level, the electronic scattering rate acquires a non-analytic contribution. This invalidates basic assumptions of Fermi liquid theory and within perturbative treatments…
