We present an advanced $\textit{ab initio}$ quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) calculation of the ground state of undoped CaCuO$_2$. We extend the traditional single-determinant Slater-Jastrow approach to include multi-determinant wave functions,…
In this study, we analyze the dielectric function of high-Tc cuprates as a function of doping level, taking into account the full energy band dispersion within the CuO$_2$ monolayer. In addition to the conventional two-dimensional (2D)…
We make use of the S=1 pseudospin formalism to describe the charge degree of freedom in a model high-$T_c$ cuprate with the on-site Hilbert space reduced to the three effective valence centers, nominally Cu$^{1+,\,2+,\,3+}$. Starting with a…
A model of superconductivity in layered high-temperature superconducting cuprates is proposed, based on the extended saddle point singularities in the electron spectrum, weak screening of the Coulomb interaction and phonon-mediated…
We consider the extended 2D $t-t'-t''-J$ model at zero temperature. Parameters of the model corresponds to doping by holes. Using the low doping effective action we demonstrate that the system can 1) preserve the long range collinear…
Physics of high-$T_c$ superconducting cuprates is obscured by the effect of strong electronic correlations. One way to overcome the problem is to seek for an exact solution at least within the small cluster and expand it to the whole…
We report that four properties of cuprates and their evolution with doping are consequences of simply counting four-site plaquettes arising from doping: (1) the universal Tc phase diagram (superconductivity between \approx0.05 and…
How a Mott insulator develops into a weakly coupled metal upon doping is a central question to understanding various emergent correlated phenomena. To analyze this evolution and its connection to the high-$T_c$ cuprates, we study the…
Independent investigations of nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) and of stripes in high-$T_c$ cuprates find a small deviation of doped-hole density $h$ from the doping level of $La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4$. The value observed with NQR, $ x - h…
Effective field theory methods allow us to modify general relativity through higher-curvature corrections to the Einstein-Hilbert action, while preserving Lorentz invariance and the number of gravitational degrees of freedom. We here…
Studying the disappearance of superconductivity at the end of the overdoped region of the cuprate phase diagram offers a different approach for investigating the interaction which is responsible for pairing in these materials. In the…
It has become clear in the past several years that the cuprates show many unusual properties, both in the normal and superconducting states, especially in the underdoped region. In particular, gap-like behavior is observed in magnetic…
Understanding the transport properties of cuprate superconductors is one of the central challenges in the physics of strongly correlated electrons. The most common approach is to define and solve a low-energy lattice model, but it is still…
The phase shifts for the higher partial waves in the spin quartet and doublet channel of nd scattering are presented at next-to-leading and next-to-next-to-leading order in an effective field theory in which pions are integrated out. The…
Recent scanning tunneling spectroscopy experiments have provided evidence that dopant impurities in high- Tc superconductors can strongly modify the electronic structure of the CuO2 planes nearby, and possibly influence the pairing. To…
We compare the Tcs found in different families of optimally-doped High-Tc cuprates and find, contrary generally accepted lore, that pairing is not exclusively in the CuO2 layers. Evidence for additional pairing interactions, that take place…
We present a minimal model of a doped Mott insulator that simultaneously supports antiferromagnetic stripes and d-wave superconductivity. We explore the implications for the global phase diagram of the superconducting cuprates. At the…
Realistic modeling of competing phases in complex quantum materials has proven extremely challenging. For example, much of the existing density-functional-theory-based first-principles framework fails in the cuprate superconductors. Various…
An elementary model of La2-xSrxCuO4 explaining the features of its superconducting phase diagram and the characteristics of spin textures without any assumption of stripe formation is proposed. The foundations of this model are the…
The extended $t-J$ model is theoretically studied, in the context of hole underdoped cuprates. Based on results obtained by recent numerical studies, we identify the mean field state having both the antiferromagnetic and staggered flux…
