The optimal inhomogeneity for superconductivity - finite size studies

ORAL

Abstract

We report the results of exact diagonalization studies of Hubbard models on a $4\times 4$ square lattice with periodic boundary conditions and various degrees and patterns of inhomogeneity. Inhomogeneities are represented by different patterns of inequivalent hopping integrals ($t$ and ${t}')$, such that for ${t}'=t$, the model is ``homogeneous'', while for ${t}'<
