We have considered the BCS-BEC crossover at T=0 in the framework of a lattice fermion model (the extended Hubbard model). We have analyzed the case of on-site hard core repulsion ($U=\infty$) and intersite attraction ($W<0$) in a 3D system…

We discuss a Kohn-Luttinger-like mechanism for superconductivity in Bernal bilayer graphene and rhombohedral trilayer graphene. Working within the continuum model description, we find that the screened long-range Coulomb interaction alone…
We have analyzed two mechanisms proposed recently for superconductivity in doped SrTiO3 - the plasmon-mediated pairing and the potential of an instantaneous attraction between two electrons that owes its origin to the exchange by…
We study the inter-valley scattering induced by the Coulomb repulsion as a purely electronic mechanism for the origin of superconductivity in few layers of graphene. The pairing is strongly favored by the presence of van Hove singularities…
