Fluctuation diagnostics of pseudogap and d-wave superconductivity in the two-dimensional Hubbard model

In recent years, reliable approaches have been developed [1] to identify the dominant fluctuations
driving the multifaceted phenomena of many-electron physics. Among those, the “fluctuation
diagnostics" [2] was hitherto applied only to normal, paramagnetic phases, allowing to pinpoint the
spin-fluctuation nature of the pseudogap occurring in the two-dimensional Hubbard model [1-2]. After
extending the approach to the superconducting phase [3], we were able to identify antiferromagnetic
fluctuations as the "pairing glue" of d-wave superconductivity both in the underdoped and the
overdoped regime of the Hubbard model. However, the predominant magnetic fluctuations might
significantly differ [4] from those of conventional spin-fluctuation theory.
