A strictly truncated (weak-coupling) perturbation theory is applied to the attractive Holstein and Hubbard models in infinite dimensions. These results are qualified by comparison with essentially exact Monte Carlo results. The second order…

The description of heteropairs like $^{40}$K-$^6$Li near and in the superconducting state requires a fully selfconsistent theory [see Hanai and Ohashi, Phys. Rev. A 90, 043622 (2014)]. We derive analytic pseudogap Green's functions for the…

We argue that the interpretation of the experiment [Nature Physics 21, 708-715 (2025)] is misleading in two respects. First, the bias voltages impact the non-local differential conductance randomly, rather than systematically, and the bias…
