The pith

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The reading

The paper studies the Hatsugai-Kohmoto model on a square lattice—an exactly solvable model that is a Mott insulator at half-filling and a non-Fermi liquid when doped—augmented by a BCS-like pairing interaction. It claims that, at low doping up to a critical value around $x_c\approx 0.25$ and for intermediate interaction strength $U$, the static pair susceptibility at center-of-mass momentum $Q=(\pi,\pi)$ diverges at a finite critical temperature, signaling strong pair-density-wave (PDW) fluctuations. In that doping window the PDW channel beats the ordinary $q=0$ superconducting channel; further doping favors uniform superconductivity instead. The interest is that the HK model's Mott transition has been argued to lie in the same universality class as the Hubbard model's, so this exact result offers a potential picture of PDW fluctuations on doping a Mott insulator, a scenario proposed for underdoped cuprates.

What carries the argument

The central object is the static pair susceptibility $\chi_0(0,q)$ of the HK model with a pairing interaction $V_q$, whose divergence condition $\chi_0(0,q)=1/V_q$ locates the superconducting ($q=0$) and PDW ($q=Q=(\pi,\pi)$) instabilities. The machinery is the exact two-band structure of the HK Green's function, the constant density of states $\rho(\omega)=1/W$ (taken for simplicity), and the identity $\xi_{k+Q}=-\xi_k-2\mu$, which makes the PDW pair-energy denominator independent of $k$ and renders the susceptibility integrals exact.

What would settle it

Repeat the same exact susceptibility calculation using the actual square-lattice density of states (or a momentum-resolved numerical method) and check whether $\chi_0(0,Q)$ still diverges at finite $T$ and still exceeds $\chi_0(0,0)$ for $x\lesssim 0.25$ and intermediate $U$; if it does not, the PDW-dominated phase diagram is an artifact of the constant-DOS approximation.

Extended reading notes

Core claim

Working with the exact Green's function of the HK model and a Dyson equation for the pair susceptibility, the authors show that the $Q=(\pi,\pi)$ pairing channel has a Cooper-like bound state with negative pair-binding energy $\varepsilon'$ for low doping and intermediate $U$, and that the corresponding static susceptibility $\chi_0(0,Q)$ diverges at a finite $T_c^{\mathrm{PDW}}$ once the pairing strength $V'$ exceeds a small threshold. Because $\xi_{k+Q}=-\xi_k-2\mu$, the two-particle energy denominators in the PDW susceptibility become $k$-independent, so the momentum integrals can be done exactly. The result is a phase diagram in which PDW fluctuations dominate over $q=0$ superconductivity in an underdoped, intermediate-$U$ region, while uniform SC takes over at higher doping; for $V'\to 0$ the PDW susceptibility is enhanced but does not diverge at finite $T$, so the model realizes a fluctuating PDW regime rather than long-range PDW order in that limit.

Load-bearing premise

The calculation assumes a flat, featureless density of states in place of the real square-lattice one, and the values of the pair-binding energies, critical temperatures, and the critical doping $x_c\approx 0.25$ depend on that choice; with the true band structure the PDW-versus-SC competition could change.

Editorial extensions

If this is right

  • At finite pairing strength $V'$ and low doping up to $x_c\approx 0.25$ with intermediate $U$, the static pair susceptibility at $Q=(\pi,\pi)$ diverges at a finite $T_c^{\mathrm{PDW}}$, establishing a genuine finite-temperature PDW instability in the HK-SC model.
  • In this underdoped window the PDW channel dominates the $q=0$ SC channel; at higher doping the uniform superconducting instability becomes the leading one.
  • For $V'\to 0$ the $Q=(\pi,\pi)$ susceptibility is strongly enhanced as $T$ drops but does not diverge at finite temperature, so the model describes a fluctuating PDW regime rather than true long-range PDW order.
  • Increasing $U$ up to the bandwidth strengthens PDW pair binding while weakening uniform SC, which is why intermediate correlation strength favors PDW; $U>W$ suppresses both phases.
  • If the HK model's Mott transition indeed shares a universality class with the Hubbard model, the exact PDW-fluctuation phase diagram becomes a candidate qualitative explanation for fluctuating-PDW behavior in doped Mott insulators such as underdoped cuprates.

Reading between the lines

Editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • A direct test would repeat the exact susceptibility integrals with the actual square-lattice density of states (including van Hove singularities) instead of $\rho(\omega)=1/W$; if the PDW-dominated window survives, the phase diagram becomes a quantitative benchmark for approximate methods in the Hubbard model.
  • Because the $Q=(\pi,\pi)$ PDW here is tied to $\eta$-pairing, one could probe the fluctuating PDW regime through dynamical charge correlations or spectral functions of the HK model, looking for signatures that could be compared with finite-size numerics.
  • The exact $T_c^{\mathrm{PDW}}$ formulas could be used as a controlled starting point to study how $k$-dependent pairing interactions, disorder, or the orbital-HK extension shift the PDW-versus-SC competition.
  • If the fluctuating-PDW regime is the relevant 'mother state' for underdoped cuprates, a testable next step is to check whether the model reproduces pseudogap-like spectral features, such as Fermi arcs, in the same doping and interaction window.

Referee Report

3 major / 4 minor

Summary. The manuscript studies the Hatsugai-Kohmoto (HK) model on a square lattice with an added finite-momentum pairing interaction (the HK-SC model). It derives Cooper-pair binding energies and static pair susceptibilities in the zero-center-of-mass (SC) and Q=(π,π) (PDW) channels. The central claim is that, for intermediate U and low doping up to a critical doping of order x_c≈0.25, the PDW susceptibility diverges at a finite temperature and dominates the SC channel, while at larger doping SC wins. The authors compute closed-form expressions for the pair-binding energies, critical temperatures, and chemical potentials using a constant density of states, and interpret the resulting phase diagram as evidence that PDW fluctuations emerge generically on doping a Mott insulator, with possible relevance to underdoped cuprates.

Significance. If the central claim survives scrutiny, this would be a valuable addition to the field: it provides an analytically tractable two-dimensional model in which PDW fluctuations compete with uniform superconductivity, and it connects the exactly solvable HK model to a currently active experimental and theoretical topic. The paper is constructive rather than phenomenological: it contains no parameter fitting, the susceptibility calculation is transparently built from previously established HK Green's functions, and the analytic expressions are sufficiently detailed to be checked and reused. The significance is somewhat conditional, however, because the quantitative phase diagram is obtained from an approximate density of states, and because the treatment of the pairing-perturbed model is not literally exact.

major comments (3)
  1. [Sec. III, Eq. (19); Sec. IV, Eqs. (27), (30)-(32)] The central quantitative claim that PDW fluctuations dominate in a low-doping, intermediate-U window rests on the replacement of the square-lattice density of states by a constant, ρ(ω)=1/W, introduced in Sec. III immediately after Eq. (15) and used in Eq. (19), Eq. (27), Eqs. (30)-(32), and the chemical-potential relations (33)-(34). The real square-lattice DOS has van Hove singularities and sharp band edges, which change the relative weight of the Ω0, Ω1, and Ω2 energy regions and also shift μ(T,x,u) at fixed doping. Since the q=0 and q=Q susceptibilities probe different energy ranges, the ratio χ0(0,Q)/χ0(0,0) could change substantially when the true DOS replaces the flat one. The paper provides no numerical k-sum test, no comparison with the actual square-lattice DOS, and no error estimate showing that the PDW-dominated window and the quoted critical doping x_c≈0.25 survive. Because this approximation enters every equation that produces the phase diagram in Fig. 4, this is a load-bearing point that needs to be addressed before the central claim can be accepted.
  2. [Eq. (14)] Equation (14) appears to contain an error in the Ω1 terms: the factors (1−n^q_0(k)) should presumably be (1−n^q_1(k)), since those terms involve β_k with k∈Ω1 and since the variational equation (15) for the same channel uses (1−n^q_1(k)) and n^q_1(k)+1/2. As written, Eq. (14) is inconsistent with Eq. (15) and with the derivation of the pair-binding energy. The authors should correct this expression and re-verify that the self-consistent equation (15) follows from the corrected variational calculation.
  3. [Sec. IV, Eq. (22), and title/abstract] The claim of exactness is overstated for the HK-SC model. The bare HK model is exactly solvable because it is diagonal in momentum, but once the pairing term V_q is added the Hamiltonian is no longer k-diagonal. Equation (22) is a Dyson/RPA-type resummation for the pairing susceptibility, and the subsequent calculation explicitly assumes T≪U,W and the constant-DOS approximation. The text at the start of Sec. IV says 'We will perform here an exact calculation of Eq. (21)', and the title and abstract describe the doped Mott insulator as 'exactly solvable'. I recommend either proving that Eq. (22) is exact for the HK-SC model or clearly labeling the susceptibility computation as an approximate controlled treatment. This distinction matters because the critical temperatures T_c^SC and T_c^PDW are inferred from the pole condition of Eq. (23) within this approximation.
minor comments (4)
  1. [Sec. II] The sentence 'In Appendix V, we show some expressions of μ(T,x,U)' appears to be a typo; there is no appendix labeled V in the manuscript, only the unnumbered 'APPENDIX: RESULTS FOR T_c^PDW AND μ(T)'.
  2. [Appendix, Eq. (32)] The expression for χ0(0,Q) in Eq. (32) contains ambiguous notation, including 'tanh^{-1}(βU/2)', unbalanced parentheses, and line breaks that make the formula difficult or impossible to verify. Please provide a cleaner closed form, or include a supplementary notebook or code snippet that generates the plotted curves.
  3. [Appendix, Eqs. (31)-(34)] The notation μ'_c appears in the Appendix without being defined in the main text, and the sentence 'We note that μ′c in Eqs. (31) and (34)' seems to refer to a quantity in Eq. (34) that is not denoted μ'_c. Please make the notation for the chemical potential at the critical temperature consistent throughout Eqs. (31)-(34).
  4. [Fig. 4] Figure 4 is labeled 'schematic phase diagram' with a dashed guide line. Since the precise location of the PDW/SC boundary is a central quantitative result, it would be helpful to either show computed boundary curves for the parameter values used in the paper, or explicitly state that the drawn boundary is only illustrative and not extracted from the calculations.

No circularity found: the PDW and SC instabilities are derived from the HK-SC Hamiltonian without fitting a target result.

full rationale

The paper's central claim is a derived consequence of the HK-SC Hamiltonian, not an input. The pairing instability is obtained by solving the Cooper-pair binding-energy equation (Eq. 19) and the bare pair susceptibilities (Eqs. 27 and 30), with the critical-temperature conditions (Eqs. 24 and 25) following from the Dyson equation (Eq. 22). The only external input is the exact HK Green's function (Eq. 4), quoted from Ref. [42], whose authors do not overlap with the present authors; this is independent support, not a self-citation. The Q=(π,π) momentum choice is motivated by the band identity ξ_{k+Q} = -ξ_k - 2μ, which makes the PDW susceptibility exactly integrable, and by external literature on PDW competition; no uniqueness theorem or ansatz is smuggled in from the present authors' prior work. The constant-density-of-states replacement ρ(ω)=1/W in Sec. III is an approximation that may affect quantitative values such as x_c, but it is not a parameter fitted to the PDW conclusion and does not make the derivation circular; it is a correctness/robustness concern, not a circularity concern. Self-citations such as Refs. [22,24,72,74-77] appear only in the introduction or outlook as background and are not load-bearing for the derivation. No step reduces by construction to its own input.

Assumptions & free parameters 0 free parameters · 4 assumptions · 0 invented entities

The central claim rests on prior HK results, a constant DOS approximation, and a ladder treatment of the pairing interaction. None of these are fitted to a target result, but the constant DOS and the ladder approximation limit the exactness of the quantitative phase diagram.

assumptions (4)
  • domain assumption The exact retarded Green's function of the HK model (Eq. 4) from Ref. [42] is taken as the starting point for the susceptibility calculation.
    The Green's function is a known result for the HK model without pairing; the paper relies on it without re-derivation.
  • domain assumption The single-occupied region Ω1 is not spin polarized, see footnote 2 citing Ref. [47].
    The occupancies in Eq. (2) assume n_{k↑}=n_{k↓}; a spin-polarized Ω1 would change the pair-binding equations.
  • domain assumption A constant density of states ρ(ω)=1/W is used for the square lattice.
    This is an approximation introduced 'for simplicity' after Eq. (15); the true square-lattice DOS is not constant, and the quantitative phase boundaries depend on it.
  • domain assumption The pairing susceptibility obeys the ladder Dyson equation χ = χ0 + V χ0 χ (Eq. 22).
    This is a mean-field or BCS treatment of the pairing interaction; it is not an exact solution of the full HK-SC model for arbitrarily strong V.

abstract

We investigate the Hatsugai-Kohmoto (HK) model on a square lattice, which describes both a Mott insulator at half-filling and a non-Fermi liquid phase on doping. Through the solution of this exactly solvable model with the inclusion of pairing interactions, we demonstrate the emergence of strong pair-density-wave (PDW) fluctuations associated with center-of-mass momentum $\mathbf{Q}=(\pi,\pi)$ at finite temperatures for low dopings up to a critical doping and intermediate $U$ interaction. Furthermore, we also confirm that a superconducting instability appears in the model within a wide regime of interaction $U$ and doping parameter $x$. In view of the fact that it has been recently put forward that the metal-insulator transition of the HK model belongs to the same universality class as the Mott transition of the paradigmatic Hubbard model [Huang \emph{et al.}, Nat. Phys. \textbf{18}, 511 (2022)], our work may thus shed light on an interesting scenario regarding the emergence of a fluctuating PDW phase on doping a Mott insulator, which has been argued to be relevant for understanding the physics of the cuprate superconductors in the underdoped regime.
