Abstract
Exact diagonalization study based on Lanczos method has been performed to understand the effect of on-site Coulomb repulsion (U) within t-J-U model in an 8 – site tilted square cluster at a hole doping <h>= 0.25. We have applied periodic boundary conditions to identify complete orthonormal basis states. It appears that U destabilizes superconducting ground state. On-site Coulomb repulsion decreases kinetic energy of the electrons and cooperates with exchange interaction J.
