Rigorous results on superconducting ground states for attractive extended Hubbard models
Arianna Montorsi, David K Campbell
Abstract
We show that the exact ground state for a class of extended Hubbard models including bond-charge, exchange, and pair-hopping terms, is the Yang ``\ensuremath{\eta}-paired'' state for any nonvanishing positive value of the pair-hopping amplitude, at least when the on-site Coulomb interaction is attractive enough and the remaining physical parameters satisfy a single constraint. The ground state is thus rigorously superconducting. Our result holds on a bipartite lattice in any dimension, at any band filling, and for arbitrary electron hopping. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.
