Abstract
The normal—state and superconducting properties of the high—Tc cuprate superconductors offer a great challenge for theoretical explanation. Because many of the normal—state properties (electrical resistivity, optical conductivity, Hall coefficient) are unlike those observed in typical metals, some theories have stressed the non—Fermi—liquid[1] or marginal Fermi—liquid[2] nature of these materials. Others[3] have emphasized a conventional Fermi—liquid picture, taking into account a small value of the Fermi energy and anisotropic crystal structure.
