We study a model of $N$ fermions in a quantum dot, coupled to $M$ bosons by a disorder-induced complex Yukawa coupling (Yukawa-SYK model), in order to explore the interplay between non-Fermi liquid and superconductivity in a strongly…
By using a Ginzburg-Landau functional in the Gaussian approximation, we calculate the energy of superconducting fluctuations above the transition, at zero external magnetic field, of a system composed by a small number $N$ of parallel…
Superconductivity in low carrier density metals challenges the conventional electron-phonon theory due to the absence of retardation required to overcome Coulomb repulsion. In quantum critical polar metals, the Coulomb repulsion is heavily…
Nematic phases, where electrons in a solid spontaneously break rotational symmetry while preserving the translational symmetry, exist in several families of unconventional superconductors [1, 2]. Although superconductivity mediated by…
The gapless nodal fermions exhibit non-Fermi liquid behaviors at the nematic quantum critical point that is supposed to exist in some $d$-wave cuprate superconductors. This non-Fermi liquid state may be turned into a disorder-dominated…
An enduring question in correlated systems concerns whether superconductivity is favoured at a quantum critical point (QCP) characterised by a divergent quasiparticle effective mass. Despite such a scenario being widely postulated in high…
We study the dynamics of a quantum critical boson coupled to a Fermi surface in intermediate energy regimes where the Landau damping of the boson can be parametrically controlled, either via large Fermi velocity or by large N techniques. We…
Recent discovery of superconductivity in YbRh$_2$Si$_2$ has raised particular interest in its pairing mechanism and gap symmetry. Here we propose a phenomenological theory of its superconductivity and investigate possible gap structures by…
We study superconductivity in a three-dimensional zero-density Dirac semimetal in proximity to a ferroelectric quantum critical point. We find that the interplay of criticality, inversion-symmetry breaking, and Dirac dispersion gives rise…
In most of charge density wave (CDW) systems of different material classes, ranging from traditional correlated systems in low-dimension to recent topological systems with Kagome lattice, superconductivity emerges when the system is driven…
The origin of unconventional superconductivity, including high-temperature and heavy-fermion superconductivity, is still a matter of controversy. Spin excitations instead of phonons are thought to be responsible for the formation of Cooper…
Properties of superfluid states of two-dimensional electron systems with critical antiferromagnetic fluctuations are investigated. These correlations are found to result in the emergence of rapidly varying in the momentum space terms in all…
Superconductivity in alkali-intercalated iron selenide, with T_c's of 30K and above, may have a different origin than that of the other Fe-based superconductors, since it appears that the Fermi surface does not have any holelike sheets…
Pair density modulation is a superconducting state, recently observed in exfoliated iron-based superconductor flakes, in which the superconducting gap oscillates strongly with the same periodicity as the underlying crystalline lattice. We…
The nature of superconductivity in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides is still an object of debate. It has already been argued that repulsive Coulomb interactions, combined with the disjoint Fermi surfaces around the $K$, $K'$…
The nature of unconventional superconductivity is intimately linked to the microscopic nature of the pairing interactions. In this work, motivated by cubic heavy fermion compounds with embedded multipolar moments, we theoretically…
We analyze superconductivity in a multi-orbital fermionic system near the onset of a nematic order, using doped FeSe as an example. We associate the nematic order with spontaneous polarization between $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals. We…
Unconventional superconductivity often competes or coexists with other electronic orders. In iron-based superconductors, relationship between superconductivity and the nematic state, where the lattice rotational symmetry is spontaneously…
We consider a low $T_c$ metallic superconductor weakly coupled to the soft fluctuations associated with proximity to a nematic quantum critical point (NQCP). We show that: 1) a BCS-Eliashberg treatment remains valid outside of a…
The Ginzburg-Landau-Wilson theory that describes the disordered Fermi liquid - d-wave superconductor phase transition at zero temperature is derived at weak coupling. The theory represents an interacting dissipative system of bosonic Cooper…
