Abstract

We consider an electron model of superconductivity on a three-dimensional lattice where there are on-site attractive Hubbard interaction and long-range repulsive Coulomb interaction. It is claimed that fully gapped s-wave superconductivity within this model, if present, exhibits spontaneous translation symmetry breaking possibly related to a charge order. Our discussions are based on an application of the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem under some physical assumptions. The inconsistency between the proposed supersolid and experiments can impose some constraints on a reasonable choice of a theoretical model.
