It has been shown that interband mixing of gradients of two order parameters (drag effect) in an isotropic bulk two-band superconductor plays important role - such a quantity of the intergradients coupling exists that the two-band…
In the usual Ginzburg-Landau theory the critical value of the ratio of two fundamental length scales in the thery $\kappa_c=1/\sqrt{2}$ separates regimes of type-I and type-II superconductivity. The latter regime possess thermodynamically…

We study the 2D Ginzburg-Landau theory for a type-II superconductor in an applied magnetic field varying between the second and third critical value. In this regime the order parameter minimizing the GL energy is concentrated along the…
Recent experimental study unveiled highly unconventional phenomena in the superconducting twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) with ultra flat bands, which cannot be described by the conventional BCS theory. For example, given the small Fermi…

Ginzburg-Landau (GL) equations and GL free energy for flux phase and superconductivity are derived microscopically from the $t-J$ model on a square lattice. Order parameter (OP) for the flux phase has direct coupling to a magnetic field, in…

The recent paper by V. G. Kogan and J. Schmalian Phys. Rev. B 83, 054515 (2011) argues that the widely used two-component Ginzburg-Landau (GL) models are not correct, and further concludes that in the regime which is described by a GL…
A procedure to derive the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory from the multiband BCS Hamiltonian is developed in a general case with an arbitrary number of bands and arbitrary interaction matrix. It combines the standard Gor'kov truncation and a…
