Superconductivity emerges from the spatial coherence of a macroscopic condensate of Cooper pairs. Increasingly strong binding and localization of electrons into these pairs compromises the condensate's phase stiffness, thereby limiting…
We discuss the superfluid phase transition of a strongly interacting Fermi gas with unequal (asymmetric) chemical potentials in two pairing hyperfine states, and map out its phase diagram near the BCS-BEC crossover. Our approach includes…
After decades of explorations, suffering from low critical temperature and subtle nature, whether a metallic ground state exists in a two-dimensional system beyond Anderson localization is still a mystery. Supremely, phase coherence could…
Theoretically, we recently showed that the scaling relation between the transition temperature T_c and the superfluid density at zero temperature n_s (0) might exhibit a parabolic pattern [Scientific Reports 6 (2016) 23863]. It is…
We review the study of the superfluid phase transition in a system of fermions whose interaction can be tuned continuously along the crossover from Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconducting phase to a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC),…
This article reviews the current status of precursor superconducting phase fluctuations as a possible mechanism for pseudogap formation in high-temperature superconductors. In particular we compare this approach which relies on the…
One of the most prominent problems in high temperature superconductivity is the nature of the pseudogap phase in underdoped regimes; particularly important is the role of phase fluctuations. The Gutzwiller-projected BCS Hamiltonian is a…
We calculate Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) state of a unitary Fermi gas of atoms interacting with the finite-ranged Jost-Kohn potential which has been recently shown to account for the resonant interactions [2019 {\rm J. Phys. B: At. Mol.…
The exploration of the non-perturbative regime of QCD, that is the low-energy portion of the hadron spectrum, requires the adoption of theoretical methods more frequently applied to other, more conventional, quantum many body systems, like…
Transition temperatures $T_{c}$ calculated using the BCS model electron-phonon interaction without any adjustable parameters agree with empirical values for quasi-2D cuprate superconductors. They follow from a two-dimensional gas of…
We study the fidelity approach to quantum phase transitions (QPTs) and apply it to general thermal phase transitions (PTs). We analyze two particular cases: the Stoner-Hubbard itinerant electron model of magnetism and the BCS theory of…
The presence of two components in the electron fluid of high temperature superconductors and the complex charge and lattice inhomogeneity have been the hot topics of the international conference of the superstripes series, Superstripes…
Artificial magnetic fields (AMFs) created for ultra cold systems depend sensitively on the internal structure of the atoms. In a mixture, each component experiences a different AMF depending on its internal state. This enables the study of…
The Bogoliubov approach to superconductivity provides a strong mathematical support to the wave function ansatz proposed by Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer (BCS). Indeed, this ansatz --- with all pairs condensed into the same state ---…
It is shown that for superconductors with circumference $2\pi R$ approaching BCS coherence length $\xi_0$ minimal period of the response of all thermodynamic quantities to external magnetic field is set by $hc/e$ i.e. twice the…
The unified approach based on the Generalized BCS equations incorporating chemical potential employed to deal with the critical temperature, gap(s) and coherence length(s) of any superconductor (SC) in an earlier paper is shown here to be…
The problem of finding superintegrable Hamiltonians and their integrals of motion can be reduced to solving a series of compatibility equations that result from the overdetermination of the commutator or Poisson bracket relations. The…
A simple version of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS)-type mean-field theory for the t-J model is developed. The present approach rigorously treats the constraint of no doubly occupied states and invokes two local order parameters to…
Departing from the assumption that pairing is induced by an retarded external 'bosonic glue', we reformulate the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory of superconductivity as a scaling theory. Conventional superconductors correspond with the…
A low-energy fixed-point Hamiltonian is constructed for the s-wave odd-frequency pairing state with staggered ordering vector in the two-channel Kondo lattice. The effective model is justified because it reproduces low-energy behaviors of…
