We study the stability of p-wave superfluidity against quantum fluctuations in two-dimensional Fermi gases near a p-wave Feshbach resonance . An analysis is carried out in the limit when the interchannel coupling is strong. By investigating…
Based on recent experimental evidence for a spin polarized ground state in the insulating phase of the two-dimensional electron system, we propose that ferromagnetic spin fluctuations lead to an attractive interaction in the triplet channel…
We obtain the phase diagram of spin-imbalanced interacting Fermi gases from measurements of density profiles of $^6$Li atoms in a harmonic trap. These results agree with, and extend, previous experimental measurements. Measurements of the…
In weakly coupled BCS superconductors, only electrons within a tiny energy window around the Fermi energy, $E_F$, form Cooper pairs. This may not be the case in strong coupling superconductors such as cuprates, FeSe, SrTiO$_3$ or cold atom…
We investigate the pairing physics in a three-component Fermi-Fermi mixture, where a few impurities are immersed in a non-interacting spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Fermi gas with synthetic spin-orbit coupling (SOC), and interact attractively with one…
The local density approximation is used to study the ground state superfluid properties of harmonically trapped p-wave Fermi gases as a function of fermion-fermion attraction strength. While the density distribution is bimodal on the weakly…
We point out an error in recent work by Pao, Wu, and Yip [Phys. Rev.B {\bf 73}, 132506 (2006)], that stems from their use of a necessary but not sufficient condition [positive compressibility (magnetic susceptibility) and superfluid…
We study the interplay of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and strong p-wave interaction to the scattering property of spin-1/2 ultracold Fermi gases. Based on a two-channel square-well potential generating p-wave resonance, we show that the…
We consider a mixture of single-component bosonic and fermionic atoms in an array of coupled one-dimensional "tubes". For an attractive Bose-Fermi interaction, we show that the system exhibits phase separation instead of the usual collapse.…
The p-wave superfluid is characterized by nontrivial topological characteristics essential for fault-tolerant quantum state manipulation. However, the practical realization of the p-wave state remains a challenging problem. We study the s-…
For decades, the conventional view is that an s-wave BCS superfluid can not support uniform spin polarization due to a gap $\Delta$ in the quasiparticle excitation spectrum. We show that this is an artifact of the dismissal of quasiparticle…
We study the dilute fermion gas with pairing between two species and unequal concentrations in a harmonic trap using the mean field theory and the local density approximation. We found that the system can exhibit a superfluid shell…

Gapless superconductivity can arise when pairing occurs between fermion species with different Fermi surface sizes, provided there is a sufficiently large mismatch between Fermi surfaces and/or at sufficiently large coupling constant. In…
The pairing and superfluid phenomena in a two-component Fermi gas can be strongly affected by the population and mass imbalances. Here we present phase diagrams of atomic Fermi gases as they undergo BCS--Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC)…
