We act on the suggestion that an excitonic insulator state might separate---at very low temperatures---a semimetal from a semiconductor and ask for the nature of these transitions. Based on the analysis of electron-hole pairing in the…

A model to describe Cooper pairs near the transition point (on temperature and magnetic field), when the distance between them is big compared to their sizes, is proposed. A superconducting plate whose thickness is less than the pair size…
We propose a scenario for superconductivity at strong electron-electron attractive interaction, in the case when the increase of the interaction strength promotes the nucleation of the local Cooper pairs and forms a state with a spatially…
