Abstract

The Bethe-Salpeter equation is combined with the temperature-cutoff functional renormalization group approach to analyze the order parameter structure for the leading instabilities of the 2D t-t' Hubbard model. We find significant deviations from pure s-, d-, or p-wave forms, which is due to the frustration of antiferromagnetism at small and intermediate t'. With adding a direct antiferromagnetic spin-exchange coupling the eigenfunctions in the particle-hole channel have extended s-wave form, while in the particle-particle singlet pairing channel a higher angular momentum component arises besides the standard d-wave symmetry, which flattens the angular dependence of the gap. For t' closer to 1/2 we find a delicate competition of ferromagnetism and triplet pairing with a nontrivial pair-wavefunction.
