The resonance, a collective boson mode, was usually thought to be a possible glue of superconductivity. We argue that it is rather a natural product of the \emph{d}-wave pairing and the Fermi surface topology. A universal scaling…
One of the most puzzling aspects of the high $T_c$ superconductors is the appearance of Fermi arcs in the normal state of the underdoped cuprate materials. These are loci of low energy excitations covering part of the fermi surface, that…
