Recent experiments find that the pseudogap phase of the high-T$_{c}$ cuprates ends suddenly at an electron doping $x^{*}$ when the Fermi surface change its shape from hole-like to electron-like. In this short note, we argue that the…
Surface Fermi arcs are the most prominent manifestation of the topological nature of Weyl semimetals. In the presence of a static magnetic field oriented perpendicular to the sample surface, their existence leads to unique inter-surface…

The density-of-states at the Fermi energy, $N(E_F)$, is low in doped superconducting semiconductors and high-$T_C$ cuprates. This contrasts with the common view that superconductivity requires a large electron-boson coupling $\lambda$ and…

The underdoped cuprate superconductors are characterized by the opening of the pseudogap, while such an aspect of the pseudogap effect should be reflected in the low-energy electronic structure (LEES). Here the effect of the pseudogap on…
Electron correlation in cuprates leads to a global constraint $\sum_{\bf k} \Delta_{\bf k} = 0$ on the gap function $\Delta_{\bf k}$ resulting in a gap nodal surface. We give physical arguments supported by numerical results and discuss…
