Abstract
Unconventional density waves (UDW) have a long history starting with the speculation of Halperin and Rice in 1968. However, a more realistic approach started around 1999 in order to clarify the nature of the pseudogap in the underdoped region of hole-doped high Tc cuprates. Also d-wave density waves (dDW) evolved from early unrealistic 2D model with Z2 symmetry to more realistic 3D mean-field condensate with U(1) gauge symmetry. More recently, the giant Nernst effect and the angle dependent magnetoresistance in LSCO, YBCO, Bi2212 and CeCoIn5 are successfully described in terms of dDW, where the Landau quantization of the quasiparticle spectrum in dDW in a magnetic field (the Nersesyan effect) plays the crucial role.
