We present a minimal model of a doped Mott insulator that simultaneously
supports antiferromagnetic stripes and d-wave superconductivity. We explore the
implications for the global phase diagram of the superconducting cuprates. At
the unrestricted mean-field level, the various phases of the cuprates,
including weak and strong pseudogap phases, and two different types of
superconductivity in the underdoped and the overdoped regimes, find a natural
interpretation. We argue that on the underdoped side, the superconductor is
intrinsically inhomogeneous -- striped coexistence of of superconductivity and
magnetism -- and global phase coherence is achieved through Josephson-like
coupling of the superconducting stripes. On the overdoped side, the state is
overall homogeneous and the superconductivity is of the classical BCS type.Comment: 5 pages, 3 eps figures. Effect of t' on stripe filling + new
