Direct Connection between Mott Insulator and d-Wave High-Temperature Superconductor Revealed by Continuous Evolution of Self-Energy Poles

Shiro Sakai, Marcello Civelli, Masatoshi Imada

The high-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides emerges when carriers are doped into the parent Mott insulator. This well-established fact has, however, eluded a microscopi…
