Phenomenological Single-Particle Green's Function for the Pseudogap and Superconducting Phases of High-T$_c$ Cuprates

We present a phenomenological Green's function to characterize the superconducting and pseudogap phases of the cuprates based on a microscopic theory of doped Mott insulators. In this framework, the "Fermi arc" and "kink" phenomena observed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) experiments in the pseudogap phase can be systematically explained as a function of doping, which is further connected to the two-gap feature in the superconducting phase with dichotomy between the nodal and antinodal physics. We demonstrate that a phase-string-induced fractionalization plays the key role in giving rise to such a peculiar Green's function with a unique two-component structure.
