Obtain the solution of the 2X 2 plaquette and gain physical understanding of the different CDMFT states. Even if the results are changed by going to larger clusters, the short range physics is general and will teach us important lessons. Follow states as a function of parameters. Adiabatic continuity.

21. . Allows the investigation of the normal state underlying the superconducting state, by forcing a symmetric Weiss function, we can follow the normal state near the Mott transition. Earlier studies (Katsnelson and Lichtenstein, M. Jarrell, M Hettler et. al. Phys. Rev. B 58, 7475 (1998). T. Maier et. al. Phys. Rev. Lett 85, 1524 (2000) ) used QMC as an impurity solver and DCA as cluster scheme. We use exact diag ( Krauth Caffarel 1995 with effective temperature 32/t=124/D ) as a solver and Cellular DMFT as the mean field scheme. CDMFT study of cuprates

25. In BCS theory the order parameter is tied to the superconducting gap. This is seen at U=4t, but not at large U. How is superconductivity destroyed as one approaches half filling ?

26. Superconducting State t’=0 Does it superconduct ? Yes. Unless there is a competing phase. Is there a superconducting dome ? Yes. Provided U /W is above the Mott transition. Does the superconductivity scale with J ? Yes. Provided U /W is above the Mott transition.

27. The superconductivity scales with J, as in the RVB approach. Qualitative difference between large and small U. The superconductivity goes to zero at half filling ONLY above the Mott transition.

42. oQualitative Difference between the hole doped and the electron doped phase diagram is due to the underlying normal state.” In the hole doped, it has nodal quasiparticles near ( ,  /2) which are ready “to become the superconducting quasiparticles”. Therefore the superconducing state can evolve continuously to the normal state. The superconductivity can appear at very small doping. oElectron doped case, has in the underlying normal state quasiparticles leave in the (  0) region, there is no direct road to the superconducting state (or at least the road is tortuous) since the latter has QP at (  /2,  /2).

43.  Can we connect the superconducting state with the “underlying “normal” state “ ?  Yes, within our resolution in the hole doped case.  No in the electron doped case.  What does the underlying “normal state “ look like ?  Unusual distribution of spectra (Fermi arcs) in the normal state.

44. To test if the formation of the hot and cold regions is the result of the proximity to Antiferromagnetism, we studied various values of t’/t, U=16.

46. Approaching the Mott transition: Qualitative effect, momentum space differentiation. Formation of hot –cold regions is an unavoidable consequence of the approach to the Mott insulating state! General phenomena, but the location of the cold regions depends on parameters. With the present resolution, t’ =.9 and.3 are similar. However it is perfectly possible that at lower energies further refinements and differentiation will result from the proximity to different ordered states.

54. Qualitative effect, momentum space differentiation. Formation of hot –cold regions is an unavoidable consequence of the approach to the Mott insulating state! General phenomena, but the location of the cold regions depends on parameters. Study the “normal state” of the Hubbard model is useful. Character of the superconductivity is different for small and large U.
