The Meissner effect is one of the defining properties of superconductivity, with a conventional superconductor completely repelling an external magnetic field. In contrast to this diamagnetic behavior, odd-frequency superconducting pairing…

In 1933, Meissner and Ochsenfeld reported the expulsion of magnetic flux, the diamagnetic Meissner effect, from the interior of superconducting lead. This discovery was crucial in formulating the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory of…
Understanding the nature of Cooper pairs is essential to describe the properties of superconductors. The original proposal of Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer (BCS) was based on electrons pairing with same energy and zero center-of-mass…
We consider physical properties of a superconductor with a recently proposed type of odd-frequency pairing that exhibits diamagnetic Meissner response ("odd-dia state"). Such a state was suggested in order to address stability issues…
We study theoretically Meissner effect in non-Hermitian systems of BCS type, i.e., with an electron-electron interaction leading to the mean field description in a Cooper channel, via superfluid stiffness. We show that depending on the…
Doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$ is proposed to be a nematic superconductor originating from unusual inter-orbital pairing. We classify all induced superconducting pair correlations in Bi$_2$Se$_3$ and discover that intra-orbital odd-frequency pairing…
The interplay between antiferromagnetism and d-wave superconductivity is studied in a mean-field approximation for a generic microscopic Hamiltonian with short-range repulsion and near-neighbor attraction. In the presence of competing…
Odd-frequency superconductivity, originally proposed by Berezinskii in 1974, is an exotic phase of matter in which Cooper pairing between electrons is entirely dynamical in nature. The pair potential is an odd function of frequency, leading…
In all known superconductors the pairing of fermions is not sensitive to the sign of their time-argument difference, leading to a Cooper pair wavefunction that is even in time/frequency. Four decades ago it was suggested that odd-frequency…
The odd-frequency superconducting state appears generally in hybrid structures consisting of conventional superconductors and other materials, and features electrons that form temporally non-local Cooper pairs. The quasiclassical theory of…
We propose that mass-imbalanced superconductivity is realized in an effective two-channel Kondo lattice, and its characteristic property appears in electromagnetic responses such as the Meissner effect. Starting from an effective…
In this brief overview we discuss the principal features of real space pairing as expressed via corresponding low-energy (t-J or periodic Anderson-Kondo) effective Hamiltonian, as well as consider concrete properties of those unconventional…
