Abstract: | Within the Hubbard-Holstein model, we evaluate the crossover lines marking the opening of pseudogaps in the cuprates, which, in our scenario, are ruled by the proximity to a charge-ordering quantum criticality (stripe formation). We find that their isotopic dependence, due to critical fluctuations, implies a substantial positive shift of the pseudogap-formation temperature T(*). We infer that the isotopic shift of the superconducting T(c) is nearly absent in the optimally and overdoped regimes and is negative and increasing upon underdoping. The dynamical nature of the charge-ordering transition may explain the spread of the experimental values of T(*). |
