We study a three-orbital Hubbard model with negative Hund coupling in infinite dimensions, combining dynamical mean-field theory with continuous time quantum Monte Carlo simulations. This model, which is relevant for the description of alkali-doped fullerides, has previously been shown to exhibit a spontaneous orbital selective Mott phase in the vicinity of the superconducting phase. Calculating the pair potential and double occupancy in each orbital, we study the competition between different homogeneous ordered states and determine the corresponding finite temperature phase diagram of the model. We identify two distinct types of spontaneous orbital-selective Mott states and show that an orbital-selective $s$-wave superconducting state with one superconducting and two metallic orbitals is spontaneously realized between the conventional $s$-wave superconducting phase and these two kinds of spontaneously orbital-selective Mott states.

We present the zero-temperature superconducting (SC) ground states of the two-orbital asymmetric $t-J$ model on a square lattice by means of the auxiliary-boson approach. Besides the two-gap SC phase, we find an orbital selective SC (OSSC) phase, whi
ch is simultaneously SC in one orbit and normal in another orbit. The novel OSSC phase is stable only for sufficient asymmetric degree in orbital space and doping concentration. The pairing symmetry of the SC phase is s-wave-like in most doping regime, against the d-wave symmetry of the single-orbital $t-J$ model in a square lattice. The implication of the present scenario on multi-orbital heavy fermion and iron-based superconductors is also discussed.
In the present study, we explore superconductivity in NdNiO$_2$ and LaNiO$_2$ employing a first-principles derived low-energy model Hamiltonian, consisting of two orbitals: Ni $x^{2}$-$y^{2}$, and an {it axial} orbital. The {it axial} orbital is cons
tructed out of Nd/La $d$, Ni 3$z^{2}$-$r^{2}$ and Ni $s$ characters. Calculation of the superconducting pairing symmetry and pairing eigenvalue of the spin-fluctuation mediated pairing interaction underlines the crucial role of inter-orbital Hubbard interaction in superconductivity, which turns out to be orbital-selective. The axial orbital brings in materials dependence in the problem, making NdNiO$_2$ different from LaNiO$_2$, thereby controlling the inter-orbital Hubbard interaction assisted superconductivity.
An important challenge in condensed matter physics is understanding iron-based superconductors. Among these systems, the iron selenides hold the record for highest superconducting transition temperature and pose especially striking puzzles regarding
the nature of superconductivity. The pairing state of the alkaline iron selenides appears to be of $d$-wave type based on the observation of a resonance mode in neutron scattering, while it seems to be of $s$-wave type from the nodeless gaps observed everywhere on the Fermi surface (FS). Here we propose an orbital-selective pairing state, dubbed $s tau_{3}$, as a natural explanation of these disparate properties. The pairing function, containing a matrix $tau_{3}$ in the basis of $3d$-electron orbitals, does not commute with the kinetic part of the Hamiltonian. This dictates the existence of both intraband and interband pairing terms in the band basis. A spin resonance arises from a $d$-wave-type sign change in the intraband pairing component whereas the quasiparticle excitation is fully gapped on the FS due to an $s$-wave-like form factor associated with the addition in quadrature of the intraband and interband pairing terms. We demonstrate that this pairing state is energetically favored when the electron correlation effects are orbitally selective. More generally, our results illustrate how the multiband nature of correlated electrons affords unusual types of superconducting states, thereby shedding new light not only on the iron-based materials but also on a broad range of other unconventional superconductors such as heavy fermion and organic systems.
In conventional and high transition temperature copper oxide and iron pnictide superconductors, the Cooper pairs all have even parity. As a rare exception, Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is the first prime candidate for topological chiral p-wave superconductivity, wh
ich has time-reversal breaking odd-parity Cooper pairs known to exist before only in the neutral superfluid $^3$He. However, there are several key unresolved issues hampering the microscopic description of the unconventional superconductivity. Spin fluctuations at both large and small wavevectors are present in experiments, but how they arise and drive superconductivity is not yet clear. Spontaneous edge current is expected but not observed conclusively. Specific experiments point to highly band- and/or momentum-dependent energy gaps for quasiparticle excitations in the superconducting state. Here, by comprehensive functional renormalization group calculations with all relevant bands, we disentangle the various competing possibilities. In particular we show the small wavevector spin fluctuations, driven by a single two-dimensional band, trigger p-wave superconductivity with quasi-nodal energy gaps.
We study the interplay between the electron-electron (e-e) and the electron-phonon (e-ph) interactions in the two-orbital Hubbard-Holstein model at half filling using the dynamical mean field theory. We find that the e-ph interaction, even at weak co
uplings, strongly modifies the phase diagram of this model and introduces an orbital-selective Peierls insulating phase (OSPI) that is analogous to the widely studied orbital-selective Mott phase (OSMP). At small e-e and e-ph coupling, we find a competition between the OSMP and the OSPI, while at large couplings, a competition occurs between Mott and charge-density-wave (CDW) insulating phases. We further demonstrate that the Hunds coupling influences the OSPI transition by lowering the energy associated with the CDW. Our results explicitly show that one must be cautious when neglecting the e-ph interaction in multiorbital systems, where multiple electronic interactions create states that are readily influenced by perturbing interactions.
