The existence of a pseudogap in unitary Fermi gases has recently been established and measured experimentally [Li et al., Nature 626, 288 (2024)]. This lends strong support for the pairing origin as the mechanism of the pseudogap in Fermi…
A central issue on high-Tc superconductivity is the nature of the normal-state gap (pseudogap) in the underdoped regime and its relationship with superconductivity. Despite persistent efforts, theoretical ideas for the pseudogap evolve…

A phase diagram for a 2D metal with variable carrier density has been derived. It consists of a normal phase, where the order parameter is absent; a so-called ``abnormal normal'' phase where this parameter is also absent but the mean number…
A model with d-wave pairing symmetry is studied by employing a non-perturbative sum rule approach. At low temperature the magnitude of a normal state pseudogap shows strong $\vec{k}$ or angle dependence well fitted by $\cos 2\phi$ form.…

The finite-frequency optical properties of the underdoped cuprates, in both the normal and superconducting state, display features which go beyond a Fermi liquid and a BCS description. We provide an understanding of these properties within…
The electronic structure of the high-T_c superconductor Tl2Ba2CuO6+d is studied by ARPES. For a very overdoped Tc=30K sample, the Fermi surface consists of a single large hole pocket centered at (pi,pi) and is approaching a topological…
The phase variation of the superconducting gap over the (normal) Fermi surface of the high-temperature superconductors remains a significant unresolved question. Is the phase of the gap constant, does it change sign, or is it perhaps…
