η-pairing superconductivity in generalized Hubbard models
Andreas Schadschneider
Abstract
We consider generalized Hubbard models in arbitrary dimensions which have additional nearest-neighbour interactions. It is shown that in a large region of the parameter space these models have ground states of the η-pairing type. These ground states exhibit off-diagonal long-range order and are thus superconducting. In special cases the complete (T=0) phase diagram can be obtained.
