Abstract

Motivated by the recent discovery of the anomalously nearest-neighbor attraction arising from the electron-phonon coupling, we quantitatively investigate the enhancing effects of this additional attractive channel on the -wave SC based on dynamic cluster quantum Monte Carlo calculations of doped two-dimensional extended Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor attraction . Focusing on the range of , our simulations indicate that the dynamics of -wave projected pairing interaction is attractive at all frequencies and increases with . Moreover, turning on attraction enhances the spin fluctuations but only enhances (suppresses) the charge fluctuations for small (large) momentum transfer. Thus, at relevant to ``holon folding branch'', the charge fluctuations are insufficient to compete with -wave pairing interaction strengthened by enhanced spin fluctuations. Our work suggest the underlying rich interplay between the spin and charge fluctuations in giving rise to the superconducting properties.
