We study bipolaron formation and bipolaronic superconductivity on a square lattice, where electrons couple to both local Holstein phonons via on-site charge density and nonlocal bond Su-Schrieffer-Heeger phonons via modulation of hopping…
The electron-phonon (e-ph) interaction remains of great interest in condensed matter physics and plays a vital role in realizing superconductors, charge-density-waves (CDW), and polarons. We study the two-dimensional Holstein model for e-ph…
Most nonperturbative numerical studies of electron-phonon interactions focus on model Hamiltonians where the electrons interact with a phonon branch via a single type of microscopic mechanism. Two commonly explored couplings in this context…
Experimental quest for high-temperature and room-temperature superconductivity (SC) at ambient pressure has been a long-standing research theme in physics. It has also been desired to construct reliable microscopic mechanisms that may…
Electron-phonon ($e$-ph) interactions arise in many strongly correlated quantum materials from the modulation of the nearest-neighbor hopping integrals, as in the celebrated Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model. Nevertheless, relatively few…
Light-mass bipolarons in off-diagonally coupled electron-phonon systems provide a potential route to bipolaronic high-Tc superconductivity. While there has been numerical progress in the physically relevant limit of slow phonons, more…
It is widely accepted that phonon-mediated high-temperature superconductivity is impossible at ambient pressure, because of the very large effective masses of polarons/bipolarons at strong electron-phonon coupling. Here we challenge this…
The optical conductivity of a polaronic charge carrier in the intermediate and strong-coupling regimes is calculated for a tight-binding electron using exact diagonalization. Two different simple models of the electron-phonon coupling are…
The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model, with bond phonons modulating electron tunneling, is a paradigmatic electron-phonon model that hosts an antiferromagnetic order to bond order transition at half-filling. In the presence of repulsive…
We analyze the transition temperature $T_c$ of bipolaronic superconductivity in a bond Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (bond-SSH) model -- also known as a bond Peierls model -- where the electron hoppings are modulated by bond phonons. Using a…
Electron-phonon (e-ph) interactions play a crucial role in determining many properties of materials. In this context, the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model, where atomic motion modulates the electronic hopping, has gained significant…
Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH)-like electron-phonon (e-ph) interactions can drive the formation of light (bi)polarons and several novel states of matter. It is, therefore, prudent to develop experimental protocols for identifying such couplings…
Studies of Hamiltonians modeling the coupling between electrons as well as to local phonon excitations have been fundamental in capturing the novel ordering seen in many quasi-one dimensional condensed matter systems. Extending studies of…
Phonon-mediated superconductivity is conventionally thought to be capped at a transition temperature $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ no larger than roughly one-tenth of the phonon frequency $\Omega$, a bound rooted in the breakdown of Migdal-Eliashberg…
Polarons with different types of electron-phonon coupling have fundamentally different properties. When the dominant interaction is between the electron density and lattice displacement, the momentum of the ground state does not change and…
We investigate the influence of electron-phonon coupling on the superexchange interaction of magnetic insulators. Both the Holstein-Hubbard model where the phonons couple to the electron density, as well as an extended Su, Schrieffer,…
High-temperature superconductivity (HTS) of cuprates represents a challenge to the conventional theory. Here I review a multi-polaron approach to the problem based on our extension of the BCS theory to the strong-coupling regime. Since…
The interplay of bond and charge correlations is studied in a one-dimensional model with both Holstein and Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) couplings to quantum phonons. The problem is solved exactly by quantum Monte Carlo simulations. If one of…
We present a theoretical study of superconductivity of polarons in the Hubbard-Holstein model. A residual kinematic interaction proportional to the square of the polaron hopping energy between polarons and phonons provides a pairing field…
Using a variational Monte Carlo method, we study competitions of strong electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions in the ground state of Holstein-Hubbard model on a square lattice. At half filling, an extended intermediate metallic…
