Abstract

We examine the ground-state properties of the crossover between BCS superconductivity and Bose Einstein condensation within a model that exhibits dx2−y2 pairing symmetry. We compare results for zero temperature with known features of s-wave systems and show that bosonic degrees of freedom are likely to emerge only in the dilute limit. We relate the change in properties of the ground state as a function of density to the effect of the exclusion principle and show that the one-particle distribution function undergoes a significant change when bosonic behavior appears.
