We investigate magnetic and superconducting instabilities of the two-dimensional $t\ensuremath{-}{t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ Hubbard model on a square lattice at van Hove densities from weak to intermediate coupling by means of the two-particle self-consistent approach. We find that as the next-nearest-neighbor hopping $|{t}^{\ensuremath{'}}|$ increases from zero, the leading instability is towards an incommensurate spin-density wave whose wave vector moves slowly away from $(\ensuremath{\pi},\ensuremath{\pi}).$ For intermediate values of $|{t}^{\ensuremath{'}}|,$ the leading instability is towards ${d}_{{x}^{2}\ensuremath{-}{y}^{2}}$-wave superconductivity. For larger $|{t}^{\ensuremath{'}}|>0.33t,$ there are signs of a crossover to ferromagnetism at extremely low temperatures. The suppression of the crossover temperature is driven by Kanamori screening that strongly renormalizes the effective interaction and also causes the crossover temperature to depend only weakly on ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}.$ Electronic self-energy effects for large $|{t}^{\ensuremath{'}}|$ lead to considerable reduction of the zero-energy single-particle spectral weight beginning at temperatures as high as $T\ensuremath{\lesssim}0.1t,$ an effect that may be detrimental to the existence of a ferromagnetic ground state at weak coupling.
Several new classes of compounds can be modeled in first approximation by electrons on the triangular lattice that interact through on-site repulsion
U as well as nearest-neighbor repulsion
V. This extended Hubbard model on a triangular lattice has been studied mostly in the strong coupling limit for only a few types of instabilities. Using the extended two-particle self-consistent approach (ETPSC), that is valid at weak to intermediate coupling, we present an unbiased study of the density and interaction dependent crossover diagram for spin- and charge-density wave instabilities of the normal state at arbitrary wave vector. When
U dominates over
V and electron filling is large, instabilities are chiefly in the spin sector and are controlled mostly by Fermi surface properties. Increasing
V eventually leads to charge instabilities. In the latter case, it is mostly the wave vector dependence of the vertex that determines the wave vector of the instability rather than Fermi surface properties. At small filling, nontrivial instabilities appear only beyond the weak coupling limit. There again, charge-density wave instabilities are favored over a wide range of dopings by large
V at wave vectors corresponding to $\sqrt{(3)}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\sqrt{(3)}$ superlattice in real space. Commensurate fillings do not play a special role for this instability. Increasing
U leads to competition with ferromagnetism. At negative values of
U or
V, neglecting superconducting fluctuations, one finds that charge instabilities are favored. In general, the crossover diagram presents a rich variety of instabilities. We also show that thermal charge-density wave fluctuations in the renormalized-classical regime can open a pseudogap in the single-particle spectral weight, just as spin or superconducting fluctuations.
