We analyze the competition between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity in the two-dimensional Hubbard model by combining a functional renormalization group flow with a mean-field theory for spontaneous symmetry breaking. Effective interactions are computed by integrating out states above a scale Lambda_{MF} in one-loop approximation, which captures in particular the generation of an attraction in the d-wave Cooper channel from fluctuations in the particle-hole channel. These effective interactions are then used as an input for a mean-field treatment of the remaining low-energy states, with antiferromagnetism, singlet superconductivity and triplet pi-pairing as the possible order parameters. Antiferromagnetism and superconductivity suppress each other, leaving only a small region in parameter space where both orders can coexist with a sizable order parameter for each. Triplet pi-pairing appears generically in the coexistence region, but its feedback on the other order parameters is very small.

Competing unconventional superconductivity and antiferromagnetism widely exist in several strongly correlated quantum materials whose direct simulation generally suffers from fermion sign problem. Here we report unbiased Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations on a sign-problem-free repulsive toy model with same onsite symmetries as the standard Hubbard model on a 2D square lattice. Using QMC, supplemented with mean-field and continuum field-theory arguments, we find that it hosts three distinct phases: a nodal d-wave phase, an antiferromagnet, and an intervening phase which hosts coexisting antiferromagnetism and nodeless d-wave superconductivity. The transition from the coexisting phase to the antiferromagnet is described by the 2+1-D XY universality class, while the one from the coexisting phase to the nodal d-wave phase is described by the Heisenberg-Gross-Neveu theory. The topology of our phase diagram resembles that of layered organic materials which host pressure tuned Mott transition from antiferromagnet to unconventional superconductor at half-filling.
Interplay between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity is studied by using the 3-dimensional nearly half-filled Hubbard model with anisotropic transfer matrices $t_{rm z}$ and $t_{perp}$. The phase diagrams are calculated for varying values of the ratio $r_{rm z}=t_{rm z}/t_{perp}$ using the spin fluctuation theory within the fluctuation-exchange approximation. The antiferromagnetic phase around the half-filled electron density expands while the neighboring phase of the anisotropic $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$-wave superconductivity shrinks with increasing $r_{rm z}$. For small $r_{rm z}$ $T_{rm c}$ decreases slowly with increasing $r_{rm z}$. For moderate values of $r_{rm z}$ we find the second order transition, with lowering temperature, from the $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$-wave superconducting phase to a phase where incommensurate SDW coexists with $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$-wave superconductivity. Resonance peaks as were discussed previously for 2D superconductors are shown to survive in the $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$-wave superconducting phase of 3D systems. Soft components of the incommensurate SDW spin fluctuation mode grow as the coexistent phase is approached.
Antiferromagnetism and $d$-wave superconductivity are the most important competing ground-state phases of cuprate superconductors. Using cellular dynamical mean-field theory (CDMFT) for the Hubbard model, we revisit the question of the coexistence and competition of these phases in the one-band Hubbard model with realistic band parameters and interaction strengths. With an exact diagonalization solver, we improve on previous works with a more complete bath parametrization which is carefully chosen to grant the maximal possible freedom to the hybridization function for a given number of bath orbitals. Compared with previous incomplete parametrizations, this general bath parametrization shows that the range of microscopic coexistence of superconductivity and antiferromagnetism is reduced for band parameters for NCCO, and confined to electron-doping with parameters relevant for YBCO.
We present a new approach to investigate the coexistence of antiferromagnetism and d-wave superconductivity in the two dimensional extended Hubbard model within a numerically exact cluster dynamical mean-field approximation. Self-consistent solutions with two non-zero order parameters exists in the wide range of doping level and temperatures. A linearized equation for energy spectrum near the Fermi level have been solved. The resulting d-wave gap has the correct magnitude and k-dependence but some distortion compare to the pure d_{x^2-y^2} superconducting order parameter due to the presence of underlying antiferromagnetic ordering.
We propose a class of wave functions that provide a unified description of antiferromagnetism and d-wave superconductivity in (doped) Mott insulators. The wave function has a Jastrow form and prohibits double occupancies. In the absence of holes, the wave function describes antiferromagnetism accurately. Off diagonal long range order develops at finite doping and the superconducting order parameter has d-wave symmetry. We also show how nodal quasiparticles and neutral spin excitations can be constructed from this wave function.
