The holographic superconductor is the holographic dual of superconductivity, but there is no Meissner effect in the standard holographic superconductor. This is because the boundary Maxwell field is added as an external source and is not…

We discuss the excess conductivity at nonzero frequencies in a superconductor above T_c within the gaussian approximation. We focus the attention on the temperature range not too close to T_c: within a time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau…

The contributions of superconducting fluctuations to the specific heat of dirty superconductors are calculated, including quantum and classical corrections to the `usual' leading Gaussian divergence. These additional terms modify the…
Despite the fact that conserved currents have dimensions that are determined solely by dimensional analysis (and hence no anomalous dimensions), Nature abounds in examples of anomalous diffusion in which $L\propto t^\gamma$, with $\gamma\ne…
It is very interesting that all holographic superconductors, such as s-wave, p-wave and d-wave holographic superconductors, show the universal mean-field critical exponent 1/2 at the critical temperature, just like Gindzburg-Landau (G-L)…
We discuss a novel mechanism to set up a gravity dual of FFLO states in strongly coupled superconductors. The gravitational theory utilizes two U(1) gauge fields and a scalar field coupled to a charged AdS black hole. The first gauge field…
