99 Summary Antiferromagnetism in metals and the high temperature superconductors Antiferromagnetic quantum criticality leads to d-wave superconductivity (supported by sign-problemfree Monte Carlo simulations)

100 Summary Antiferromagnetism in metals and the high temperature superconductors Antiferromagnetic quantum criticality leads to d-wave superconductivity (supported by sign-problemfree Monte Carlo simulations) Metals with antiferromagnetic spin correlations have nearly degenerate instabilities: to d-wave superconductivity, and to a charge density wave with a d- wave form factor. This is a promising explanation of the pseudogap regime.
