  We have performed a systematic angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy
(ARPES) study of the high-Tc cuprates La2-xSrxCuO4, ranging from the underdoped
insulator to the superconductor to the overdoped metal. We have revealed a
systematic doping evolution of the band dispersions and (underlying) Fermi
surfaces, pseudogap and quasi-particle features under the influence of strong
electron-electron interaction and electron-phonon interaction. The unusual
transport and thermodynamic properties are explained by taking into account the
pseudogap opening and the Fermi arc formation, due to which the carrier number
decreases as the doped hole concentration decreases.
