22 Extended interactions and superconductivity High-T c part: Conclusions Quantum cluster methods support a pairing mechanism via magnetic fluctuations The spectral features of the order parameter are correlated with the AF susceptibility This magnetic interaction is retarded, which makes SC robust against longer-range Coulomb repulsion At low doping: J increases with V, which compensates V s pair breaking effect.

For larger values of U/t, the system enters an insulating phase as a result of interactions. The values of the gap are obtained by S AF /N U/t = 4.5 extrapolation of the QMC data to the TDL as shown in Fig. 2a. U/t = 4.3 U/t = 4. From previous analysis of the model, long-range antiferromagnetic correlations are expected when the Mott insulator appears. U/t = U/t = 3.8 We therefore measured the antiferromagnetic spin structure factor, U/t = 3.5 SAF (Supplementary Information), which indicates long-range antiferromagnetic order if m 2 s 5 limnr (SAF/N).. Figure 2b shows the QMC results together with a finite-size extrapolation. The results c.16 of this extrapolation are also presented in the phase diagram in Fig. 1.

28 A spin liquid on the honeycomb lattice? Strategy Assume that the semi-metal to SL transition is the Mott transition Detect this with CDIA, with a few cluster-bath systems Check the semi-metal to AFM transition as well Hypothesis: beyond the smallest systems, U c does not depend strongly on system size. Conclusion: the AFM transition always pre-empts the Mott transition. Therefore: no spin liquid for the Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice.

35 A spin liquid on the honeycomb lattice? Spin-liquid part : Conclusions Quantum cluster methods predict that the Mott transition is pre-empted by AF order on the honeycomb lattice However: care must be take to consider cluster systems that allow the Mott transition to occur (exclude the ring cluster) Clusters are small, but the Mott transition is a rather local phenomenon. In any case: U c will generally increase with size. The critical U for AF is roughly the same as found in large-scale QMC calculations.
