Competing orders and interlayer tunneling in cuprate superconductors: A finite-temperature Landau theory

We propose a finite-temperature Landau theory that describes competing orders and interlayer tunneling in cuprate superconductors as an important extension to a corresponding theory at zero temperature [Chakravarty et al., Nature 428, 53 (2004)], where the superconducting transition temperature ${T}_{c}$ is defined in three possible ways as a function of …
