Phase diagram of the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model: Phase transitions between different pairing symmetries when charge and spin fluctuations coexist

Abstract

In order to explore how superconductivity arises when charge fluctuations and spin fluctuations coexist, we have obtained a phase diagram against the off-site repulsion V and band filling n for the extended, repulsive Hubbard model on the square lattice with the fluctuation exchange approximation. We have found the existence of (i) a transition between dxy and dx2-y2 pairing symmetries, (ii) f-pairing in between the dx2-y2 and CDW phases for intermediate 0.5<n<1.0 and large V, and (iii) for anisotropic cases the pairing symmetry changing, in agreement with a previously proposed ``generic phase diagram", as d -> f -> s when V (hence the charge fluctuations) are increased. All these are consequences of the structure in the charge and spin susceptibilities, which have peaks habitating at the common or segregated positions in k space.
