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 ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$.
