Emergent BCS regime of the two-dimensional fermionic Hubbard model: ground-state phase diagram

Understand

A significant part of the phase diagram of the two-dimensional fermionic Hubbard model for moderate interactions and filling factors ($U < 4, \, n<0.7$) is governed by effective Fermi liquid physics with weak BCS-type instabilities.

• We access this regime in a controlled way by a combination of the bold-line diagrammatic Monte Carlo method with an additional ladder-diagram summation trick and semi-analytic treatment of the weak instability in the Cooper channel.
• We obtain the corresponding ground-state phase diagram in the $(n,U)$ plane describing the competition between the $p-$ and $d-$wave superfluid states.
• We also claim the values of the dimensionless BCS coupling constants controlling the superfluid $T_c$ at the phase boundaries, which prove to be very small up to $U=4, n = 0.6$.
