Coexistence of antiferromagnetism andd+idsuperconducting correlations in the graphene bilayer

Abstract

We discuss t-J-U model on a honeycomb monolayer that has the same low-energy description of the kinetic term as graphene bilayer, and in particular study coexistence of antiferromagnetism and superconducting correlations that originate from Cooper pairs without phase coherence. We show that the model is relevant for the description of graphene bilayer and that the presence of the d + i d superconducting correlations with antiferromagnetism can lead to quadratic dependence in small magnetic fields of the gap of the effective monolayer consistent with the transport measurements of Velasco et al. on the graphene bilayer.
