Competition of Superconductivity and Charge Density Waves in Cuprates: Recent Evidence and Interpretation

Explicit and implicit experimental evidence for charge density wave (CDW) presence in high-Tc superconducting oxides is analyzed. The theory of CDW superconductors is presented. It is shown that the observed pseudogaps and dip-hump structures in tunnel and photoemission spectra are manifestations of...
