Abstract

A model of hard-core bosons and spin-1 sites with single-ion anisotropy is proposed to approximately describe hole pairs moving in a background of singlets and triplets with the aim of exploring the relationship between superconductivity and antiferromagnetism. The properties of this model at zero temperature were investigated using quantum Monte Carlo techniques. The most important feature found is the suppression of superconductivity, as long range coherence of preformed pairs, due to the presence of both antiferromagnetism and Sz=±1 excitations. Indications of charge ordered and other phases are also discussed.
