An SU(4) model of high-temperature superconductivity and antiferromagnetism has recently been proposed. The SO(5) group employed by Zhang is embedded in this SU(4) as a subgroup, suggesting a connection between our SU(4) model and the Zhang…
Antiferromagnetism and superconductivity are both fundamental and common states of matter. In many strongly correlated systems, including the high Tc cuprates, the heavy fermion compounds and the organic superconductors, they occur next to…
We show that the complex phase diagram of high $T_c$ superconductors can be deduced from a simple symmetry principle, a $SO(5)$ symmetry which unifies antiferromagnetism with $d$ wave superconductivity. We derive the approximate $SO(5)$…
In this work, we present numerical results which support SO(5) symmetry as a concept unifying superconductivity and antiferromagnetism in the high-temperature superconductors. Using exact cluster diagonalization, we verify the recently…
We present numerical studies of a quantum ``projected'' SO(5) model which aims at a unifying description of antiferromagnetism and superconductivity in the high-T$_c$ cuprates, while properly taking into account the Mott insulating gap. Our…
We construct a microscopic model of electron interactions which gives rise to both superconductivity and antiferromagnetism, and which admits an approximate SO(5) symmetry that relates these two phases. The symmetry can be exact, or it may…
S.C. Zhang has put forward the idea that high-temperature-superconductors can be described in the framework of an SO(5)-symmetric theory in which the three components of the antiferromagnetic order-parameter and the two components of the…
We present an SU(4) model of high-$T_c$ superconductivity. One dynamical symmetry of this model corresponds to the previously proposed SO(5) model for unification of superconductivity and antiferromagnetism, but there are two additional…
We present an SU(4) model of high-temperature superconductivity having many similarities to dynamical symmetries known to play an important role in microscopic nuclear structure physics and in elementary particle physics. Analytical…
We consider the projected SO(5) bosonic model introduced in order to connect the SO(5) theory of high-T$_c$ superconductivity with the physics of the Mott-insulating gap, and derive the corresponding effective functional describing…
The classical cubic-lattice dimer model undergoes an unconventional transition between a columnar crystal and a dimer liquid, in the same universality class as the deconfined quantum critical point in spin-1/2 antiferromagnets but with very…
Numerical and analytical results are reviewed, which support SO(5) symmetry as a concept unifying superconductivity and antiferromagnetism in the high-temperature superconductors. Exact cluster diagonalizations verify that the low-energy…
By numerically solving models with competing superconducting and antiferromagnetic orders, we study the magnetic field dependence of the antiferromagnetic moment in both the weak and strong field regimes. Through a omparison with the…
Zhang recently conjectured an approximate SO(5) symmetry relating antiferromagnetic and superconducting states in high-T_c cuprates. Here, an exact SO(5) symmetry is implemented in a generalized Hubbard model (with long-range interactions)…
Temperature vs. chemical-potential phase diagrams of an SO(5) model for high-(T_c) cuprates are calculated by Monte Carlo simulation. There is a bicritical point where the second-order antiferromagnetism (AF) and superconductivity…
We construct a class of microscopic electron models with exact SO(5) symmetry between antiferromagnetic and d-wave superconducting ground states. There is an exact one-to-one correspondence between both single-particle and collective…
We discuss properties of an exactly SO(5) symmetric ladder model. In the strong coupling limit we demonstrate how the SO(3)-symmetric description of spin ladders in terms of bond Bosons can be upgraded to an SO(5)-symmetric bond-Boson…
A model unifying superconductivity and antiferromagnetism using an underlying approximate SO(5) symmetry has injected energy into the field of high-temperature superconductivity. This model might lead to a variety of interesting solitons.…
Keeping in mind some salient features of quantum symmetry groups and in lieu of the interesting critique by Baskaran and Anderson of the hypothesis of the SO(5) model of Zhang and the related works of others such as Sachdev to describe…
In this talk I outline the general strategy behind the SO(5) theory of high $T_c$ superconductivity. Progress in the direction of exact SO(5) models, numerical exact diagonalization and possible experimental tests are reviewed. I also…
