Several experimental and theoretical studies in cobaltates suggest the proximity of the system to charge ordering (CO). We show, qualitatively, in the frame of a $t-V$ model coupled to phonons that optical phonon modes at the $K$ and $M$ points of the Brillouin zone, which involves only $O$-ions displacement around a $Co$-ion, are good candidates to display anomalies due to the CO proximity. If by increasing of $H_2O$ content the system is pushed closer to CO, the mentioned phonon modes should show softening and broadening.

We consider possible routes to superconductivity in hydrated cobaltates Na_xCoO_2.yH_2O on the basis of the t-J-V model plus phonons on the triangular lattice. We studied the stability conditions for the homogeneous Fermi liquid (HFL) phase against d
ifferent broken symmetry phases. Besides the sqrt(3)xsqrt(3)-CDW phase, triggered by the nearest-neighbour Coulomb interaction V, we have found that the HFL is unstable, at very low doping, against a bond-ordered phase due to J. We also discuss the occurrence of phase separation at low doping and V. The interplay between the electron-phonon interaction and correlations near the sqrt(3)xsqrt(3)-CDW leads to superconductivity in the unconventional next-nearest neighbour f-wave (NNN-f) channel with a dome shape for Tc around x ~ 0.35, and with values of a few Kelvin as seen in experiments. Near the bond-ordered phase at low doping we found tendencies to superconductivity with d-wave symmetry for finite J and x<0.15. Contact with experiments is given along the paper.
The Holstein Model (HM) describes the interaction between fermions and a collection of local (dispersionless) phonon modes. In the dilute limit, the phonon degrees of freedom dress the fermions, giving rise to polaron and bipolaron formation. At high
er densities, the phonons mediate collective superconducting (SC) and charge density wave (CDW) phases. Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations have considered both these limits, but have not yet focused on the physics of more general phonon spectra. Here we report QMC studies of the role of phonon dispersion on SC and CDW order in such models. We quantify the effect of finite phonon bandwidth and curvature on the critical temperature $T_{rm cdw}$ for CDW order, and also uncover several novel features of diagonal long range order in the phase diagram, including a competition between charge patterns at momenta ${bf q}=(pi,pi)$ and ${bf q}=(0,pi)$ which lends insight into the relationship between Fermi surface nesting and the wavevector at which charge order occurs. We also demonstrate SC order at half-filling in situations where nonzero bandwidth sufficiently suppresses $T_{rm cdw}$.
Charge-density wave (CDW) modulations in underdoped high-temperature cuprate superconductors remain a central puzzle in condensed matter physics. However, despite a substantial experimental verification of this ubiquitous phase in a large class of hi
gh $T_{mathrm{c}}$ cuprates, a complete theoretical explanation of this phase is still missing. Here, we build upon our recent proposal that the CDW in underdoped cuprates (Y- and Bi- based compounds) emerges from a unique cooperation of the B$_{1g}$ bond-buckling phonon with strong electronic correlations. We assume a static mean-field lattice distortion with B$_{1g}$ symmetry, regardless of its origin, with a commensurate wave vector $mathbf{q}^*=(2pi/3,0)/(0,2pi/3)$. We show that such a phonon-induced CDW (both uni- and biaxial) reconstructs the Fermi surface, leading to electron and hole pockets, with relevant quantum oscillation frequencies in close consistency with the experiments. Furthermore, a systematic analysis of the symmetry of the intra-unit-cell charge modulations on the copper-oxygen planes is provided. We find that the atomic charge modulation on the CuO$_2$ unit cell is predominantly of $s$-wave character -- in support of the recent experimental observation.
Charge-density wave order is now understood to be a widespread feature of underdoped cuprate high-temperature superconductors, although its origins remain unclear. While experiments suggest that the charge-ordering wavevector is determined by Fermi-s
urface nesting, the relevant sections of the Fermi surface are featureless and provide no clue as to the underlying mechanism. Here, focusing on underdoped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$, we propose a scenario that traces the charge-density wave formation to the incipient softening of a bond-buckling phonon. The momentum dependence of its coupling to the electrons in the copper-oxygen planes favourably selects the incommensurate and axial ordering wavevector found in experiments. But, it requires strong electronic correlations via their cuprate-specific renormalization of the weight and the dispersion of quasiparticles to enable a unique enhancement of the charge susceptibility near the B$_{1g}$-phonon selected wavevector. The frequency of the B$_{1g}$ phonon softens by a few percent, and a lattice instability with concomitant finite-range charge-density wave correlations will form locally, if nucleated by defects or dopant disorder. These results offer the perspective that the complex phase diagram of underdoped cuprates cannot be understood in the context of strong electronic correlations alone.
We present an explanation for the puzzling spectral and transport properties of layered cobaltates close to the band-insulator limit, which relies on the key effect of charge ordering. Blocking a significant fraction of the lattice sites deeply modif
ies the electronic structure in a way that is shown to be quantitatively consistent with photoemission experiments. It also makes the system highly sensitive to interactions (especially to intersite ones), hence accounting for the strong correlations effects observed in this regime, such as the high effective mass and quasiparticle scattering rate. These conclusions are supported by a theoretical study of an extended Hubbard model with a realistic band structure on an effective kagom`e lattice.
