We explore the effect of fluctuations for $T \geq T_c$ in the 2-D negative Hubbard model within the framework of the selfconsistent T-matrix formalism, which goes beyond the BCS approximation and includes pair fluctuations. We enter the…
We propose a mechanism that helps stabilize a superconducting state with broken time-reversal symmetry, which was predicted to realize in a d-wave superconducting film [A. B. Vorontsov, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 177001 (2009)]. In this…
