This is a short review of the theoretical work on the two-dimensional Hubbard model performed in Sherbrooke in the last few years. It is written on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the discovery of high-temperature…
An important question is if the gap in the high temperature cuprates has d_{x^2-y^2} symmetry, what does that tell us about the underlying interaction responsible for pairing. Here we explore this by determining how three different types of…
The Hubbard model and its extensions are important microscopic models for understanding high- $T_c$ superconductivity in cuprates. In the model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping $t'$ (the $t'$- Hubbard model), pairing is strongly…
Using a recently developed renormalization group method for fermionic superfluids, we determine conditions for d-wave superconductivity in the two-dimensional Hubbard model at moderate interaction strength, and we compute the pairing gap in…
The Roth's two-pole approximation has been used by the present authors to study the effects of the hybridization in the superconducting properties of a strongly correlated electron system. The model used is the extended Hubbard model which…
Previously we showed the major effect of electron correlation in the cuprate superconductors is to lower the energy of the Cu d_x^2-y^2/O p_sigma (x^2-y^2) band with respect to the Cu d_z^2/O' p_z (z^2) band. In our 2D Hubbard model for…
The five-band Hubbard model for a $d$ band with one electron per site is a model which has very interesting properties when the relevant ions are located at sites with high (e. g. cubic) symmetry. In that case, if the crystal field…
The ground state of the two-dimensional (2D) Hubbard model is investigated by adopting improved wave functions that take into account intersite electron correlation beyond the Gutzwiller ansatz. The ground-state energy is lowered…
We present recent theoretical results on superconductivity in correlated-electron systems, especially in the two-dimensional Hubbard model and the three-band d-p model. The mechanism of superconductivity in high-temperature superconductors…
We reported that the pair-pair correlation function of the two-dimensional t-J model does not have long-range d-wave superconducting correlations in the interesting parameter range of $J/t \leq 0.5$. The power-Lanczos method is used under…
We study the superconducting phase with two component order parameter scenario, such as, $d_{x^2-y^2} + e^{i\theta}s_{\alpha}$, where $\alpha = xy, x^2+y^2$. We show, that in absence of orthorhombocity, the usual $d_{x^2-y^2}$ does not mix…
We discuss a reduction of superconducting transition temperature by the intersite Coulomb repulsion for the d-wave pairing in cuprates. We compare the results found for the spin-fermion model and the extended Hubbard model. We argue that in…
We report exact calculations of magnetic and superconducting pair-pair correlations for the half-filled band Hubbard model on an anisotropic triangular lattice. Our results for the magnetic phases are similar to those obtained with other…
We determine the symmetry of Cooper pairs, on the basis of the perturbation theory in terms of the Coulomb interaction $U$, for the two-dimensional Hubbard model on the square lattice. The phase diagram is investigated in detail. The…
The Hubbard model is a "highly oversimplified model" for electrons in a solid which interact with each other through extremely short ranged repulsive (Coulomb) interaction. The Hamiltonian of the Hubbard model consists of two pieces; H_hop…
Motivated by the phenomenology of the high-Tc cuprates, a two dimensional fermionic model with attractive interactions is here discussed. The exact solution to the two particle problem leads to a bound state in the $d_{x^2 - y^2}$ subspace.…

The Hubbard model is the simplest model that is believed to exhibit superconductivity arising from purely repulsive interactions, and has been extensively applied to explore a variety of unconventional superconducting systems. Here we study…
