Abstract
The three band Hubbard model with nearest neighbour repulsion is studied in the U=∞ limit using the large N expansion technique to order [Formula: see text]. A charge transfer (CT) instability is found like in weak coupling theory. However at small doping a major role is played by the Brinkman-Rice point. The CT instability is always associated with a diverging compressibility leading to a phase separation. The evaluation to order [Formula: see text] of the effective scattering amplitude in the Cooper channel shows the presence of superconducting instabilities in the s and d wave channel near the phase separation.
