Multicomponent superconductivity is a novel quantum phenomenon in many different superconducting materials, such as multiband ones in which different superconducting gaps open in different Fermi surfaces, films engineered at the atomic…
A comprehensive field theory is developed for superconductors with quenched disorder. We first show that the matrix field theory, used previously to describe a disordered Fermi liquid and a disordered itinerant ferromagnet, also has a…
In this talk I give a brief update on the recent progress in the SO(5) theory of high T_c superconductivity (Science, 275: 1089,1997). Reviewed topics include SO(5) ladders, the unification of BCS and SDW quasi-particles in the SO(5) theory…
We analyze the interplay of disorder and long-range hopping in a paradigmatic one dimensional model of quantum transport. While typically the current is expected to decrease as the disorder strength increases due to localization effects, in…
We have studied the influence of disorder induced by electron irradiation on the normal state resistivities $\rho(T)$ of optimally and underdoped YBa2CuOx single crystals, using pulsed magnetic fields up to 60T to completely restore the…
The review is devoted to a discussion of the effects of high pressure imposed on superconducting materials. Low-temperature superconductors, high-temperature superconducting cuprates, and some unconventional superconducting compounds are…
We construct a disorder parameter for dual superconductivity of the ground state of $U(1)$ gauge theory.
We reconsider the effect of disorder on the properties of a superconductor characterized by a sign-changing order parameter appropriate for Fe-based materials. Within a simple two band model, we calculate simultaneously $T_c$, the change in…
We study the density of states (DOS) and the transition temperature $T_c$ in a dirty superconducting film with rare classical magnetic impurities of an arbitrary strength described by the Poissonian statistics. We take into account that the…
We argue that recent measurements on both the superfluid density and the optical conductivity of high-quality LSCO films can be understood almost entirely within the theory of disordered BCS d-wave superconductors. The large scattering…
The interplay between superconducting fluctuations and inhomogeneities presents a renewed interest due to recent works supporting an anomalous [beyond the conventional Gaussian-Ginzburg-Landau (GGL) scenario] diamagnetism above Tc in…
Increasing experimental evidence suggests the occurrence of filamentary superconductivity in different (quasi) two-dimensional physical systems. In this piece of work, we discuss the proposal that under certain circumstances, this…
The article in \cite{HolmlidAIPA2016} has recently come to our attention. It makes a number of extraordinary claims that each contradict well established facts in several fields, ranging from atomic and molecular physics to…
In a recent Comment (arXiv:2411.10522, Nat Rev Phys 7, 2 (2025)), fifteen prominent leaders in the field of condensed matter physics declare that hydride superconductivity is real and urge funding agencies to continue to support the field.…
We present a review of theoretical and experimental works on the problem of mutual interplay of Anderson localization and superconductivity in strongly disordered systems. We start with brief discussion of modern aspects of localization…
We have shown that in systems where the Coulomb interaction is strongly suppressed, the superconducting transition temperature may be enhanced by disorder close to the Anderson localization transition. This phenomenon is based on the…
We explore the interplay of a charge density wave (CDW) order and s-wave superconductivity (sSC) in a disordered system. Recent experiments on 1T-TiSe_2, where the pristine sample has a commensurate CDW order and the superconductivity…
In bulk materials superconductivity is remarkably robust with respect to non-magnetic disorder. In the two-dimensional limit however, the quantum condensate suffers from the effects produced by disorder and electron correlations which both…
