In this lecture we present some interesting issues that arise when the dynamics of the charge carriers in the CuO$_2$ planes of the high temperature superconductors is considered. Based on the qualitative picture of doping, set by…
We model a quantum dot-array (with one electron per dot) comprising of two (or more than two) coupled dots by an extended Hubbard Hamiltonian to investigate the role played by the inter-dot tunneling amplitude td, together with intra-dot…
We study the effect of the Coulomb interaction on the local density of states (LDOS) and its Fourier component in disordered cuprates. It is shown that the Coulomb interaction suppresses strongly the maximum value of the LDOS induced by the…
The Hubbard model in the $U\to\infty$ limit has been known to have resonating valence bond (RVB) ground states on certain corner-sharing simplex lattices. Examples include both the quasi-1D sawtooth lattice with open boundary and a larger…
We characterize the three-orbital Hubbard model using state-of-the-art determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) simulations with parameters relevant to the cuprate high-temperature superconductors. The simulations find that doped holes…

Charge-density wave order is now understood to be a widespread feature of underdoped cuprate high-temperature superconductors, although its origins remain unclear. While experiments suggest that the charge-ordering wavevector is determined…

We study controlled generation and measurement of superfluid d-wave resonating valence bond (RVB) states of fermionic atoms in 2D optical lattices. Starting from loading spatial and spin patterns of atoms in optical superlattices as pure…
A short introduction to the complex phenomena encountered in transition metal oxides with either charge or orbital or joint charge-and-orbital order, usually accompanied by magnetic order, is presented. It is argued that all the types of…
The electron-doped cuprates were studied by electronic Raman spectroscopy across the entire region of the superconducting (SC) phase diagram. We determined that the magnitude of the SC order parameter varies between 4.6 and 3.5 k_BT_c,…
A simple model is proposed as a possible explanation for the checkerboard pattern of modulations in the hole density observed in recent tunneling experiments on underdoped cuprates. Two assumptions are made; first, an enhanced hole density…
Motivated by the recent scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiments [J. E. Hoffman {\it et al.}, Science {\bf 297}, 1148 (2002); K. McElroy {\it et al.}, Nature (to be published)], we investigate the real space local density of states…
Possible ordered states in the 2D extended Hubbard model with on-site (U>0) and nearest-neighbor (V) interaction are examined near half filling, with emphasis on the effect of finite V. First, the phase diagram at absolute zero is…
A phenomenological bond order model predicting doping curves [Tc vs doped charge, c] of cuprates is found to have wider applicability. In this model Tc is dependent on the density of electronic pair crystals [EC] in a covalently bonding…
The coexistence of multiple quasi-degenerate orders is the hallmark of the strongly correlated materials. Experiments often reveal several spatially modulated orders in the underdoped cuprates. This has come to the forefront with the…
Recently, the experimental results by the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy suggested that an additional strong nearest neighbor attraction in the Hubbard model might be significant to describe the properties of doped cuprates more…

We show that a resonant pulsed field can induce a steady superconducting state even in the deep Mott insulating phase of the dimerized Hubbard model. The superconductivity found here in the non-equilibrium steady state is due to the $\eta…
Striped phases, in which spin, charge, and pairing correlations vary inhomogeneously in the CuO_2 planes, are a known experimental feature of cuprate superconductors, and are also found in a variety of numerical treatments of the two…
