Abstract
A d -wave state wave function with multiplicative correlation factors for the Hubbard model is investigated using a variational Monte Carlo method. Employing a simple Gutzwiller-BCS wave function as a starting wave function, we consider improved wave functions with off-diagonal correlation factors. The Monte Carlo simulations are carried out on a square lattice with size 10×10 for U =8 and next nearest neighbor transfer t '=-0.09. The ground-state energy is evaluated from an extrapolation. Our wave functions show that pair correlation functions are enhanced for a negative value of t '.
