Abstract

Rigorous relations for Gutzwiller projected BCS states are derived. The obtained results do not depend on the details of model systems, but solely on the wave functions. Based on the derived relations, physical consequences are discussed for strongly correlated superconducting states such as high-${T}_{\mathrm{C}}$ cuprate superconductors.

Single-particle anomalous excitations of Gutzwiller-projected BCS superconductors and Bogoliubov quasiparticle characteristics

Seiji Yunoki

Low-lying one-particle anomalous excitations are studied for Gutzwiller-projected strongly correlated BCS states. It is found that the one-particle anomalous excitations are highly coherent, and the numerically calculated spectrum can be reproduced quantitatively by a renormalized BCS theory, thus strongly indicating that the nature of low-lying excitations described by the projected BCS states is essentially understood within a renormalized Bogoliubov quasiparticle picture. This finding resembles the well-known fact that a Gutzwiller-projected Fermi gas is a Fermi liquid. The present results are consistent with numerically exact calculations of the two-dimensional $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$ model as well as recent photoemission experiments on high-${T}_{\mathrm{C}}$ cuprate superconductors.

Electronic Structure of Strongly Correlated d -Wave Superconductors

Bernhard Edegger, V. N. Muthukumar, Claudius Gros +1 more

We study the electronic structure of a strongly correlated d-wave superconducting state. Combining a renormalized mean field theory with direct calculation of matrix elements, we obtain explicit analytical results for the nodal Fermi velocity upsilon(F), the Fermi wave vector k(F), and the momentum distribution n(k) as a function of hole doping in a Gutzwiller projected d-wave superconductor. We calculate the energy dispersion E(k) and spectral weight of the Gutzwiller-Bogoliubov quasiparticles and find that the spectral weight associated with the quasiparticle excitation at the antinodal point shows a nonmonotonic behavior as a function of doping. Results are compared to angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy of the high-temperature superconductors.

Quantum antiferromagnetism and high Tc superconductivity: A close connection between the t−J model and the projected BCS Hamiltonian

K. Park

A connection between quantum antiferromagnetism and high ${T}_{c}$ superconductivity is theoretically investigated by analyzing the $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$ model and its relationships to the Gutzwiller-projected BCS Hamiltonian. After numerical corroboration via exact diagonalization, it is analytically shown that the ground state of the $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$ model at half filling [i.e., the two-dimensional (2D) antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model] is entirely equivalent to the ground state of the Gutzwiller-projected BCS Hamiltonian with strong pairing. Combined with the high wave function overlap between the ground states of the $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$ model and the projected BCS Hamiltonian at moderate doping, this equivalence provides strong support for the existence of superconductivity in the $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$ model. The relationship between the ground state of the projected BCS Hamiltonian and Anderson's resonating valence bond state (i.e., the projected BCS ground state) is discussed.

Coherent spectral weights of Gutzwiller-projected superconductors

Samuel Bieri, Dmitri A. Ivanov

We analyze the electronic Green’s functions in the superconducting ground state of the t‐J model using Gutzwiller‐projected wave functions, and compare them to the conventional BCS form. Some of the properties of the BCS state are preserved by the projection: the total spectral weight is continuous around the quasiparticle node and approximately constant along the Fermi surface. On the other hand, the overall spectral weight is reduced by the projection with a momentum‐dependent renormalization, and the projection produces electron‐hole asymmetry in renormalization of the electron and hole spectral weights. The latter asymmetry leads to the bending of the effective Fermi surface which we define as the locus of equal electron and hole spectral weight.

Strong correlation effects on thed-wave superconductor- spectral weight analysis by variational wave functions

Chung-Pin Chou, Ting-Kuo Lee, Chang-Ming Ho

We examine the strong correlation effects of the d-wave superconducting state by including the Gutzwiller projection for no electron double occupancy at each lattice site. The spectral weights (SW's) for adding and removing an electon on the projected superconducting state, the ground state of the 2-dimensional t-t'-t-J model with moderate doped holes describing the high Tc cuprates, are studied numerically on finite lattices and compared with the observation made by low-temperature tunneling (particle asymmetry of tunneling conductance) and angle-resolved photoemission (SW transfer from the projected Fermi liquid tate) spectoscopies. The contast with the dwave case without projection is alo presented.

Gutzwiller-projected wave functions for the pseudogap state of underdoped high-temperature superconductors

Rajdeep Sensarma, Victor M. Galitski

Recent experiments strongly suggest that a Fermi-surface reconstruction and multiple Fermi pockets are important common features of the underdoped high-temperature cuprate superconductors. A related theoretical work [Phys. Rev. B 79, 134512 (2009)] has demonstrated that a number of hallmark phenomena observed in the underdoped cuprates appear naturally in the scenario of a paired electron pocket coexisting with unpaired hole pockets. We propose Gutzwiller-projected wave functions to describe this two-fluid state as well as two competing states in its vicinity. It is argued that a pseudogap state constructed from these wave functions may be selected by energetics at finite temperatures due to spin fluctuations.
