Abstract

The frequency dependence of the superconducting gap function represents the dynamics of the electrons forming the Cooper pairs. Bearing the high-temperature superconducting cuprates in mind, we calculate the superconducting gap function in the two-dimensional Hubbard model by means of a cluster extension of the dynamical mean-field theory. We scrutinize the frequency dependence and its change with temperature, doping concentration and interaction strength. The calculated superconducting gap function shows various different behaviors from the anomalous self-energy, owing to a strong frequency dependence of the normal self-energy. The calculated results also suggest that the superconductivity is stronger when the interaction strength is as large as or slightly smaller than the bare band width and is suppressed for larger interactions.
