We provide a systematic coset construction of the effective field theories governing the low-energy dynamics of relativistic fluids and solids, and of their "super" counterparts. These effective theories agree with those previously derived…
Effect of geometry on the superconductivity is considered. It is shown that the for nearly two dimensional BCS systems the critical temperature is rapidly increased with decreasing the thickness of the layer. The result is expected to be…
We calculated bulk viscosity due to non-equilibrium weak processes in superfluid nucleon-hyperon matter of neutron stars. For that, the dissipative relativistic hydrodynamics, formulated in paper [1] for superfluid mixtures, was extended to…
We observe that space- and time-crystallization effects in multicomponent superfluids---while having the same physical origin and mathematical description as in the single-component case---are conceptually much more straightforward.…
We point out that two different definitions of the superfluid density - through statistical response to static gauge phase and through dynamic response to altering gauge phase - yield, generally speaking, different quantities in $d<3$. The…
Several surprises are beginning to emerge from studies of nanostructures: whereas increased resistance with decreased thickness has been expected, the exact opposite in several instances has been found. It is beginning to seem we are in the…
This paper presents a novel theory for understanding the mechanics behind non-conventional superconductors. It presents the hypothesis that non-conventional superconductors are 2D lattices of super-cells and that the superconductivity…
It is generally believed that superconducting materials are divided into two classes: `conventional' and `unconventional'. Conventional superconductors (the elements and thousands of compounds including $MgB_2$) are described by…
In this short review article, we consider some aspects of the spin-polaron concept as they relate to high-Tc superconductivity. The article is intended to be an overview in which a flavor of the research on spin polarons is given.
Relativistic equation of state and velocity comparable with the speed of light are included in consideration of a superfluid rotating in a cylindrical container. Minimizing the free energy, we derive the equation of motion. It admits an…
We discuss superfluidity in neutron matter, with particular attention to induced interactions and to universal properties accessible with cold atoms.
The properties of the known superconductors can be explained with the correlations dominated superconducting mechanism (CSM). The correlations have the spin correlation, the charge correlation and the spin-charge correlation, and their…

The pairing in a system of electrons and holes in two spatially separated parallel planes is studied in the case of electron-hole asymmetry caused by the difference in the carriers masses and their chemical potentials. It is found that the…
Liquids flow, making them remarkably distinct from solids and close to gases. At the same time, interactions in liquids are strong as in solids. The combination of these two properties is believed to be the ultimate obstacle to constructing…
Driven systems are of fundamental scientific interest, as they can exhibit properties that are radically different from the same system at equilibrium. In certain cases, long-lived states of driven matter can emerge, which exhibit new…
Vortex dynamics in fermionic superfluids is carefully considered from the microscopic point of view. Finite temperatures, as well as impurities, are explicitly incorporated. To enable readers understand the physical implications,…

This brief review is intended to introduce gravitational physicists to recent developments in which general relativity is being used to describe certain aspects of condensed matter systems, e.g., superconductivity.
