Abstract It has been proposed that the T-evolution of the Fermi arc is derived naturally from the restoration of the spontaneously broken symmetry in underdoped cuprates. r 2005 Published by Elsevier B.V. PACS: 75.10.Nr; 75.10.Jm; 74.70.Xy Keywords: High-T c cuprates; Pseudogap; Superconductivity
1. Introduction Angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) in underdoped cuprates is quite unusual, where the Fermi surface changes topology. The pseudogap suppression first opens up near ðp; 0Þ and progressively gaps out larger portions of the Fermi contour, leading to gapless arcs which shrink with decreasing T. That is, as the temperature is lowered, the Fermi surface is progressively destroyed [1]. Recently, Ono and Ando [2] have observed that the magnitude of Hall coefficient drastically decreases with increasing temperature in lightly doped LaSrCuO. This result suggests that the effective carrier density becomes larger Tel.: +81 42 329 7548; fax:+84 42 329 7491.

than the nominal hole density at elevated temperatures, which is related to the T-evolution of the Fermi surface. In this paper, we will introduce the T-evolution of the Fermi surface in underdoped cuprates, taking into account the restoration of the spontaneously broken symmetry with increasing temperature, by expanding the previous formula [3,4].
2. Restoration of the spontaneously broken symmetry Taking into account that the symmetry in the undoped ð2 þ 1Þ-dimensional quantum antiferromagnet is invariant under local SU(2), we think that the perturbing gauge fields Aam introduced by

the hole has a local SU(2) symmetry. Then it is assumed that SU(2) gauge fields Aam are spontaneously broken through the Anderson–Higgs mechanism in a way similar to the breaking of the antiferromagnetic symmetry around the hole. After the symmetry breaking h0jfa j0i ¼ h0; 0; mðk^F Þi; we can obtain the effective Lagrangian density, Leff ; at small doping of holes [5,6]. That is, h0jf3 j0i can be regarded as a kind of the disorder parameter [7]. The value, mðk^F Þ; of the symmetry breaking depends strongly on the direction of Fermi momentum, k^F ; on the Fermi surface. Furthermore, the valve mðk^F Þ; is much correlated to the gap energy of the high-energy pseudogap. If the value of the high-energy pseudogap is related to the strength of the antiferromagnetic short-range order [8], the distortion, which is induced by the doped hole, becomes larger as the hole is doped in the state of the larger gap energy of the high-energy pseudogap. Since the value, mðk^F Þ; means the strength of the distortion induced by the doped hole, the value, mðk^F Þ; is higher around the hot spot: Leff ¼

From Eq. (2), it is seen that the thermodynamic potential is a function of fa fa and temperature T. As temperature increases, the minimum of the thermodynamic potential shifts to smaller values of fa fa ; and the minimum becomes less deep. The location of the minimum is ðfa fa Þmin mðk^F ; TÞ2eff 2 g4 1 2 2 ^ ¼ mðkF Þ þ T : 8l2 6

As a result, the effective mass, m1;eff ðk^F ; TÞ; of A1m and A2m annihilates and the anomalous collision integral annihilates above the restoration temperature T res ðk^F Þ: Since the restoration temperature T res ðk^F Þ increases gradually in the Fermi momentum from the cold spot ðp=2; p=2Þ to the hot spot ðp; 0Þ; we can explain the T-evolution of the Fermi surface naturally from the standpoint of the restoration of the spontaneous symmetry breaking.
3. Conclusion We have presented that the T-evolution of the Fermi surface is much related to the restoration of
