Abstract

Superconductivity in the cuprates has been a problem standing for more than two decades and there is still no agreement on the pairing mechanism. For some recent reviews see [1, 2, 3]. Superconductivity, however, is not the only interesting property of cuprates. The normal state (T > T c ) has also anomalous properties. Still today it is a challenge to explain the normal state properties and in particular the underdoped region of the phase diagram, which remains a controversial topic.
