title: Evolution of the dynamical pairing across the phase diagram of a strongly correlated high-temperature superconductor.
abstract: We study the dynamics of the Cooper pairing across the T = 0 phase diagram of the two-dimensional Hubbard model, relevant for high-temperature superconductors, using a cluster extension of dynamical mean-field theory. We find that the superconducting pairing function evolves from an unconventional form in the overdoped region into a more conventional boson-mediated retarded form in the underdoped region of the phase diagram. The boson, however, promotes the rise of a pseudogap in the electron density of states rather than a superconducting gap as in the standard theory of superconductivity. We discuss our results in terms of Mott-related phenomena, and we show that they can be observed in tunneling experiments.
