We examine the influence of hole doping on superconducting pairing symmetries in the two-dimensional Hubbard model extended by next-nearest-neighbor hopping, nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction, correlated hopping, exchange interaction and pair-hopping processes. Using Lanczos exact diagonalization supported by projector quantum Monte Carlo method, we calculate superconducting correlation functions corresponding to s-wave, extended s-wave, and d-wave pairing over a broad range of electron concentrations and interaction parameters. We find that hole doping acts as an efficient control parameter of superconducting pairing symmetry, giving rise to robust crossovers between the dominant pairing correlations. While extended s-wave pairing dominates throughout most of the overdoped regime, reducing the hole concentration progressively enhances d-wave correlations over large regions of the ground-state diagram. The critical doping associated with these crossovers depends strongly on the underlying interaction mechanism. In particular, correlated hopping and next-nearest-neighbor hopping substantially modify the location of the pairing-symmetry boundaries, whereas the local Hubbard interaction exhibits a comparatively weaker effect. In contrast to all other interaction channels, a finite nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction additionally stabilizes conventional s-wave state over a sizeable region of parameter space. Our results demonstrate that superconducting pairing symmetry in the extended Hubbard model is governed by a subtle interplay between carrier concentration and nonlocal electronic interactions.
We investigate the influence of nonlocal interactions on superconducting correlations within the extended Hubbard model. In addition to the on-site Coulomb interaction and nearest-neighbor hopping, we include next-nearest-neighbor hopping together with several physically relevant nonlocal terms, namely nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction, correlated hopping, exchange interaction, and pair hopping. Using Lanczos exact diagonalization on a
4×4 cluster, supported by projector quantum Monte Carlo simulations for selected parameter regimes, we analyze pairing correlations in both the s- and d-wave channels. We demonstrate that nonlocal interactions exert a highly nontrivial and symmetry-dependent influence on superconducting correlations. While the on-site repulsion in cooperation with next-nearest-neighbor hopping enhances d-wave pairing tendencies, correlated hopping and nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction strongly promote s-wave correlations, whereas exchange and pair-hopping interactions can efficiently suppress superconductivity beyond relatively small critical strengths. When all nonlocal interactions are considered simultaneously, the resulting phase diagrams reveal a complex interplay and competition between different pairing symmetries. Our results highlight the crucial role of extended interactions in shaping the pairing landscape of strongly correlated systems and demonstrate that a comprehensive treatment beyond the minimal Hubbard model is essential for a realistic description of unconventional superconductivity.

We investigate the effects of the next-nearest-neighbor (${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$) and the third-nearest-neighbor (${t}^{\ensuremath{'}\ensuremath{'}}$) hopping terms on superconductivity correlation in the 2D hole-doped extended $t\ensuremath{-}J$ model based on the variational Monte Carlo, mean-field calculation and exact diagonalization method. Despite the diversity of the methods employed, the results all point to a consistent conclusion: While the
d-wave superconductivity correlation is slightly suppressed by ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ and ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}\ensuremath{'}}$ in underdoped regions, it is greatly enhanced in the optimal and overdoped regions. The optimal
Tc is a result of the balance of these two opposite trends.
The two-dimensional Hubbard model is widely believed to capture the key ingredients of high-temperature superconductivity in cuprate materials. Here we report a constrained path quantum Monte Carlo study of the square-lattice extended Hubbard model with on-site Coulomb repulsion
U and nearest-neighbor (NN) electron attraction
V. Upon doping $\ensuremath{\delta}$ = 0.125, we find that NN electron attraction
V significantly promotes an exotic spin-triplet (
p-wave) pairing, with the
p-wave pairing correlations growing stronger as
V increases. Meanwhile, the ${d}_{{x}^{2}\ensuremath{-}{y}^{2}}$-wave (
d-wave) pairing in the intermediate coupling regime shows an insignificant response to the increase of
V. The spin density wave order, which is observed near half filling in the particle-hole channel, is also almost unaffected by the NN electron attraction
V, reinforcing the established relationship between
d-wave superconductivity (SC) and spin order. As the doping becomes heavier (i.e., $\ensuremath{\delta}$ increases), the dominant region of
p-wave pairing expands, further suppressing the presence of
d-wave pairing. Our paper suggests the
p-wave pairing region can be induced and further broadened by the NN electron attraction
V, offering a feasible mechanism to realize
p-wave SC in realistic cuprate materials.
') neighbor hoppings. Our work investigates the consequences of increasing hole doping on the instauration of stripes and the behavior of the superconducting order parameter, with a discussion on how the two phenomena affect each other. We consider two different values of the next-nearest neighbor hopping parameter, that are appropriate for describing cuprate superconductors. We observe that stripes are the optimal state in a wide doping range; the stripe wavelength reduces at increasing doping, until stripes melt into a uniform state for large values of doping. Superconducting pair-pair correlations, indicating the presence of superconductivity, are always suppressed in the presence of stripes. Our results suggest that the phase diagram for the single-band Hubbard model is dominated by stripes, with superconductivity being possible only in a narrow doping range between striped states and a nonsuperconducting metal.
The Hubbard model is an iconic model in quantum many-body physics and has been intensely studied, especially since the discovery of high-temperature cuprate superconductors. Combining the complementary capabilities of two computational methods, we found superconductivity in both the electron- and hole-doped regimes of the two-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping. In the electron-doped regime, superconductivity was weaker and was accompanied by antiferromagnetic Néel correlations at low doping. The strong superconductivity on the hole-doped side coexisted with stripe order, which persisted into the overdoped region with weaker hole-density modulation. These stripe orders varied in fillings between 0.6 and 0.8. Our results suggest the applicability of the Hubbard model with next-nearest hopping for describing cuprate high–transition temperature ( T c ) superconductivity.
