In this review, a model is presented that accounts in a simple way for the existence of the condensate and spin gap in high T c superconducting cuprates. The finding of many types of high T c superconducting cuprates occurred more than a decade ago, but the cause of the superconductivity and electronic structure of such materials remains controversial, and there is no broad agreement as to the origin of pairing or of the spin gap. Our view is that these are correlation effects in a weakly doped electronic system with the appropriate alternant C 4v symmetry, as found in the layers of high T c superconducting cuprates. This two‐fluid model can adequately describe much of the essential behavior of these strange materials. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2004
