Superconductivity near two-dimensional Van Hove singularities: A determinant quantum Monte Carlo study

Gustav Romare, Daniel J. Shaffer, Alex Levchenko +2 more

The superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ of the two-dimensional attractive Hubbard model is computed in the vicinity of both ordinary (logarithmic) and higher-order (power-law) Van Hove singularities using determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations. For interaction strengths $|U| \lesssim W/3$, where $W$ is the electronic bandwidth, $T_c$ is enhanced in the neighborhood of the Van Hove point, albeit more weakly than expected from weak-coupling BCS theory. Enhancing the Van Hove singularity from logarithmic to power-law yields only a minor additional enhancement of $T_c$. For $|U| \gtrsim W/3$, the maximum $T_c$ shifts away from the Van Hove point and instead occurs at a density unrelated to any features in the non-interacting density of states, consistent with a strong-coupling interpretation. We find that the maximal $T_c$ in the model is achieved at intermediate $U$ and at a density away from the Van Hove point.

The superconducting transition temperature TcT_cTc​ of the two-dimensional attractive Hubbard model is computed in the vicinity of both ordinary (logarithmic) and higher-order (power-law) Van Hove singularities using determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations. For interaction strengths ∣U∣≲W/3|U| \lesssim W/3∣U∣≲W/3, where WWW is the electronic bandwidth, TcT_cTc​ is enhanced in the neighborhood of the Van Hove point, albeit more weakly than expected from weak-coupling BCS theory. Enhancing the Van Hove singularity from logarithmic to power-law yields only a minor additional enhancement of TcT_cTc​. For ∣U∣≳W/3|U| \gtrsim W/3∣U∣≳W/3, the maximum TcT_cTc​ shifts away from the Van Hove point and instead occurs at a density unrelated to any features in the non-interacting density of states, consistent with a strong-coupling interpretation. We find that the maximal TcT_cTc​ in the model is achieved at intermediate UUU and at a density away from the Van Hove point.
