We analyze in detail the superconductivity that arises in an extended Hubbard model describing a multiband system with repulsive interactions. We show that virtual interband processes induce an effective attractive interaction for small…
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.…
