| Summary: | An emergence of magnetic boson of instantonic nature, that provides a Cooper-‘pairing glue’, is considered in the repulsive ’nested’ Hubbard model of superconducting cuprates. It is demonstrated that antiferromagnetic instantons of a spin density wave type may have negative energy due to coupling with Cooper pair condensate. A set of Eliashberg like equations is derived and solved self-consistently, proving the above suggestion. An instantonic propagator plays the role of the Green function of the pairing ’glue’ boson. Simultaneously, the instantons defy condensation of the mean-field spin-density wave (SDW) order. We had previously demonstrated in analytical form that periodic chain of instanton-anti-instanton pairs along the axis of Matsubara time has zero scattering cross section for weakly perturbing external probes, like neutrons, etc., thus representing a ’hidden order’. Hence, the two competing orders, superconducting and antiferromagnetic, may coexist (below some <inline-formula> <math display="inline"> <semantics> <mrow> <msub> <mi>T</mi> <mi>c</mi> </msub> </mrow> </semantics> </math> </inline-formula>) in the form of the superconducting order coupled to ’hidden’ instantonic one. This new picture is discussed in relation with the mechanism of high temperature superconductivity.
