Conventional superconductivity follows Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer(BCS) theory of electrons-pairing in momentum-space, while superfluidity is the Bose-Einstein condensation(BEC) of atoms paired in real-space. These properties of solid metals…

Model lattices such as the kagome and Lieb lattices have been widely investigated to elucidate the properties of interacting flat-band systems. While a quasicrystal does not have proper bands, the non-interacting density of states of…
One of the common features of unconventional, magnetically mediated superconductivity as found in the heavy-fermions, high-transition-temperature (high-Tc) cuprates, and iron pnictides superconductors is that the superconductivity emerges…
