Period 4 stripe in the extended two-dimensional Hubbard model

Abstract

We study the competition between stripe states with different periods and a uniform $d$-wave superconducting state in the extended two-dimensional Hubbard model at 1/8 hole doping using infinite projected entangled-pair states (iPEPS). With increasing strength of negative next-nearest neighbor hopping ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$, the preferred period of the stripe decreases. For the values of ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ predicted for cuprate high-${T}_{c}$ superconductors, we find stripes with a period 4 in the charge order, in agreement with experiments. Superconductivity in the period 4 stripe is suppressed at $1/8$ doping. Only at larger doping, $0.18\ensuremath{\lesssim}\ensuremath{\delta}<0.25$, the period 4 stripe exhibits coexisting $d$-wave superconducting order. The uniform $d$-wave state is only favored for sufficiently large positive ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$.

Superconducting stripes in the hole-doped three-band Hubbard model

Boris Ponsioen, Sangwoo S. Chung, Philippe Corboz

We study the ground state properties of the hole-doped three-band Hubbard (Emery) model, describing the copper-oxygen planes of the cuprates, using large-scale two-dimensional tensor network calculations. Our simulations reveal a period 4 stripe state with spin and weak charge order over an extended doping range beyond $\ensuremath{\delta}\ensuremath{\sim}0.12$ and stripes with larger periods at smaller doping. The period 4 stripe exhibits coexisting $d$-wave superconductivity in the doping range $0.15\ensuremath{\lesssim}\ensuremath{\delta}<0.25$, while at smaller doping around $\ensuremath{\delta}\ensuremath{\sim}1/8$ we find a strong competition between superconducting and nonsuperconducting stripes, including also pair density-wave states with an alternating sign structure on neighboring stripes, suggesting that the fate of superconductivity around 1/8 doping may be sensitive on the model parameters.

Coexistence of superconductivity with partially filled stripes in the Hubbard model

Hao Xu, Chia-Min Chung, Mingpu Qin +3 more

The Hubbard model is an iconic model in quantum many-body physics and has been intensely studied, especially since the discovery of high-temperature cuprate superconductors. Combining the complementary capabilities of two computational methods, we found superconductivity in both the electron- and hole-doped regimes of the two-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping. In the electron-doped regime, superconductivity was weaker and was accompanied by antiferromagnetic Néel correlations at low doping. The strong superconductivity on the hole-doped side coexisted with stripe order, which persisted into the overdoped region with weaker hole-density modulation. These stripe orders varied in fillings between 0.6 and 0.8. Our results suggest the applicability of the Hubbard model with next-nearest hopping for describing cuprate high–transition temperature ( T c ) superconductivity.

Extreme competition between stripes and superconductivity in the hole-doped Hubbard model

Ao Chen, Johnnie Gray, Si-Jing Du +1 more

The two-dimensional Hubbard model was originally proposed as the minimal model of uniform $d$-wave superconductivity in the cuprate high-temperature superconductors, but recent calculations with relevant parameters in a realistic doping regime have often found other ground states. Further, uncertainty remains over such results due to the intrinsic bias of different computational methods. Here we address this uncertainty through state-of-the-art neural tensor network and neural backflow state simulations, enabled by large-scale GPU computation, that together reach an unprecedented variational accuracy on lattices with up to 1024 sites. At $1/8$ doping in the pure Hubbard model, as well as with next-nearest-neighbor hopping relevant to the hole-doped cuprates, we reveal a near degeneracy among a low-energy uniform $d$-wave state, superconducting stripes, and non-superconducting stripe states on the milli-$t$ energy scale. Our work rebalances the narrative that the Hubbard model supports a single dominant order in relevant parameter regimes towards a picture of extreme competition between stripes and superconductivity.

Variational Monte Carlo study of stripes as a function of doping in the t−t′ Hubbard model

Antonio Lechiara, Vito Marino, Luca F. Tocchio

') neighbor hoppings. Our work investigates the consequences of increasing hole doping on the instauration of stripes and the behavior of the superconducting order parameter, with a discussion on how the two phenomena affect each other. We consider two different values of the next-nearest neighbor hopping parameter, that are appropriate for describing cuprate superconductors. We observe that stripes are the optimal state in a wide doping range; the stripe wavelength reduces at increasing doping, until stripes melt into a uniform state for large values of doping. Superconducting pair-pair correlations, indicating the presence of superconductivity, are always suppressed in the presence of stripes. Our results suggest that the phase diagram for the single-band Hubbard model is dominated by stripes, with superconductivity being possible only in a narrow doping range between striped states and a nonsuperconducting metal.

Frustration-Induced Superconductivity in the t − t ′ Hubbard Model

Changkai Zhang, Jheng-Wei Li, Dimitra Nikolaidou +1 more

The two-dimensional Hubbard model is widely believed to capture key ingredients of high-T_{c} superconductivity in cuprate materials. However, compelling evidence remains elusive. In particular, various magnetic orders may emerge as strong competitors of superconducting orders. Here, we study the ground state properties of the doped two-dimensional t-t^{'} Hubbard model on a square lattice via the infinite projected entangled-pair state method with U(1) or SU(2) spin symmetry. The former is compatible with antiferromagnetic orders, while the latter forbids them. Therefore, we obtain by comparison a detailed understanding of the magnetic impact on superconductivity. Moreover, an additional t^{'} term accommodates the particle-hole asymmetry, which facilitates studies on the discrepancies between electron- and hole-doped systems. We demonstrate that (i) a positive t^{'}/t significantly amplifies the strength of superconducting orders; (ii) at sufficiently large doping levels, the t-t^{'} Hubbard model favors a uniform state with superconducting orders instead of stripe states with charge and spin modulations; and (iii) the enhancement of magnetic frustration, by increasing either the strength of next-nearest neighbor interactions or the charge doping, impairs stripe orders and helps stabilize superconductivity.

Dynamical mean-field theory study of stripe order and d -wave superconductivity in the two-dimensional Hubbard model

Tuomas I. Vanhala, Päivi Törmä

We use cellular dynamical mean-field theory with extended unit cells to study the ground state of the two-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model at finite doping. We calculate the energy of states where $d$-wave superconductivity coexists with spatially nonuniform magnetic and charge order and find that they are energetically favored in a large doping region as compared to the uniform solution. We also study the spatial form of the density and the superconducting and magnetic order parameters at different doping values.
