Electron-phonon correlations are integral to understand the properties of conventional superconductors but it is also thought they may be important for unconventional high-Tc superconductivity. Here, the authors investigate the interplay between antiferromagnetic ordering and charge density wave formation in 2D square lattice Hubbard-Holstein model at half-filling using unbiased quantum Monte Carlo simulations, and demonstrate an intermediate phase with enhancement of s-wave pairing correlations.
