41. A Van Hove singularity in the single particle DOS at the Fermi surface corresponds to a second derivative of the free energy with respect to filling which is negative, i.e., an unstable situation with a local maximum in the free energy. The way a system avoids such a situation when the Fermi level approaches a Van Hove singularity, is through reconstruction of the underlying lattice. This splits a 2D logarithmic singularity into two singularities, such that the Fermi level is located at a local minimum in the DOS in between the new singularities. Note that the fact that high-(Formula presented) superconductors self-dope to optimum filling clearly negates the notion that optimum doping corresponds to an unstable situation with a local maximum in the free energy.

46. On the other hand, it may be worth emphasizing that the physical origin of in-plane pairing is logically independent from the ILPT mechanism, as earlier recognized by Anderson (see, e.g., Ref. 20).

49. It is understood that normal Hartree terms, i.e., of the form (Formula presented) can be absorbed in the renormalization of the chemical potential, which is here treated as a free parameter.
