Although nineteen years have passed since the discovery of high temperature superconductivity, there is still no consensus on its physical origin. This is in large part because of a lack of understanding of the state of matter out of which…
We analyze the anomalies of superconducting state (s and d-wave pairing) in a simple model of pseudogap state, induced by fluctuations of short - range order (e.g. antiferromagnetic), based on the model Fermi surface with "hot patches". We…
The problem of deriving from microscopic theory a Ginzburg-Landau free energy functional to describe the Peierls or charge-density-wave transition in quasi-one-dimensional materials is considered. Particular attention is given to how the…
The new approach to the microscopic description of the phase transitions starting from the only first principles was developed on an example of the transition normal metal-superconductor. This means mathematically, that the free energy is…
On the basis of the recently proposed self-consistent theory of metal- insulator transition in strongly disordered systems, taking into account interaction effects, we study transition temperature $T_{c}$ suppression in disordered…
A great step forward towards the understanding of high temperature superconductors are the variety of experimental results which have led to the wide-spread acceptance of the idea that a phase with a broken symmetry competes with…
Temperature-dependent gap equations in the SU(4) model of high-Tc superconductivity are derived and analytical solutions are obtained. Based on these solutions, a generic gap diagram describing the features of energy gaps as functions of…
This review describes the main experimental facts and a number of theoretical models concerning the pseudogap state in high - temperature superconductors. On the phase diagram of HTSC - cuprates the pseudogap state is observed in the region…
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…
We propose that the pseudogap state observed in the transition metal oxides can be explained by a three-dimensional flux state, which exhibits spontaneously generated currents in its ground state due to electron-electron correlations. We…
In a superconductor electrons form pairs and electric transport becomes dissipation-less at low temperatures. Recently discovered iron based superconductors have the highest superconducting transition temperature next to copper oxides. In…
We present a microscopic picture rationalizing the surprisingly steep decrease of the band gap with temperature in insulators, crystalline or otherwise. The gap narrowing largely results from fluctuations of long-wavelength optical…
Recently developed numerical methods have enabled the explicit construction of the superconducting state of the Hubbard model of strongly correlated electrons in parameter regimes where the model also exhibits a pseudogap and a Mott…
The electronic shell structure in small metallic nanoclusters leads to high level degeneracy, which is strongly beneficial for the appearance of pair correlation. This results in a high value of Tc as well as in the appearance of a…
In this supporting material for the main paper (the preceding submission), we show, in addition to the related information for the experiments, additional discussion that cannot fit in the main paper (due to the space constraint). It…
A systematic solution of a general model for Copper-Oxides reveals a line of transitions $T = T_p (x)$ for $x$, the doping away from half-filling less than a critical value, to a phase with broken time reversal and rotational symmetry but…
In the previous papers (Journ. of Phys. Stud. 2, 362 (1998); cond-mat/9811213) we have studied metal-insulator transition in a generalized Hubbard model with correlated hopping at half-filling and zero temperature. The present paper is…
Original definition of the pseudogap [11,12] allowes to connect it conceptually with a topological insulator. It concerns the multiband superconductivity background with variable chemical potential position.
We utilize steady-state and transient optical spectroscopies to examine the responses of nonthermal quasiparticles with respect to orbital modifications in normal-state iron-chalcogenide superconductors. The dynamics shows the emergence of…
We examine the role of the anisotropy of superconducting critical thermal fluctuations in the opening of a pseudogap in a quasi-two dimensional superconductor such as a cuprate-oxide high-temperature superconductor. When the anisotropy…
