Lattice Hamiltonians with on-site interaction $W$ have W=0 solutions, that is, many-body {\em singlet} eigenstates without double occupation. In particular, W=0 pairs give a clue to understand the pairing force in repulsive Hubbard models.…
We calculate the effective interaction $W_{eff}$ between two holes added to the ground state of the repulsive three-band Hubbard model. To make contact with Cooper theory and with earlier Hubbard model cluster studies, we first use a…

We introduce a {\em local} formalism, in terms of eigenstates of number operators, having well defined point symmetry, to solve the Hubbard model at weak coupling on a $N\times N$ square lattice (for even $N$). The key concept is that of…
In purely repulsive, $C_{4v}$-symmetric Hubbard clusters a correlation effect produces an effective two-body attraction and pairing; the key ingredient is the availability of W=0 pairs, that is, two-body solutions of appropriate symmetry.…
We study the Cu_{5}O_{4} cluster by exact diagonalization of a three-band Hubbard model and show that bound electron or hole pairs are obtained at appropriate fillings, and produce superconducting flux quantisation. The results extend…

Understanding superconductivity emerging from repulsive fermions remains a major challenge in condensed matter physics. In this paper, we investigate the pairing tendencies in a one-dimensional, three component repulsive Hubbard model,…
We show that different non-conventional superconductors have one fundamental feature in common: pair eigenstates of the Hamiltonian are repulsion-free, the W=0 pairs. In extended Hubbard models, pairing can occur for resonable parameter…
As a prototype model of antiferromagnetism, we propose a repulsive Hubbard Hamiltonian defined on a graph $\L={\cal A}\cup{\cal B}$ with ${\cal A}\cap {\cal B}=\emptyset$ and bonds connecting any element of ${\cal A}$ with all the elements…
Highly-symmetric three-band Hubbard Cu-O clusters have peculiar properties when the hole number is such that they admit W=0 hole pairs. These are two-hole eigenstates of the on-site Hubbard repulsion with eigenvalue 0, get bound by…
In strongly correlated quantum materials, the behavior of charge carriers is dominated by strong electron-electron interactions. These can lead to insulating states with spin order, and upon doping to competing ordered states including…
By a canonical transformation of the three-band Hubbard model, we introduce an effective Hamiltonian for the propagation of two holes doped into the ground state of the Cu-O plane. When the pair belongs to the $^{1}B_{2}$ or $% ^{1}A_{2}$…

We investigate the effect of hole doping on the strong-coupling Hubbard model at half-filling in spatial dimensions $D\ge 1$. We start with an antiferromagnetic mean-field description of the insulating state, and show that doping creates…
The role of L=0 pairing interactions (both T=0 and T=1) in three selected bands with the total isospin T=0 in 22Na, 48Cr and 90Rh nuclei is discussed in the spherical shell model. These bands were selected requiring termination in a most…
We focus our quantitative analysis on the stability of the insulator state in the Hubbard model at a half-filling. Taking into account large-scale fluctuations (with a long relaxation time) of the on-site Coulomb repulsion, we consider the…
