We show that an in-plane magnetic field can drive two-dimensional spin-orbit-coupled systems under superconducting proximity effect into a gapless phase where parts of the normal state Fermi surface are gapped, and the ungapped parts are…
It is quite common that several different phases exist simultaneously in a system of trapped quantum gases of ultra-cold atoms. One such example is the strongly-interacting Fermi gas with two imbalanced spin species, which has received a…
There is now copious direct experimental evidence of various forms of (short-range) charge order in underdoped cuprate high temperature superconductors, and spectroscopic signatures of a nodal-antinodal dichotomy in the structure of the…
At high magnetic field, the semiclassical approximation which underlies the Ginzburg-Landau theory of the mixed state of type II superconductors breaks down. In a quasi-1D superconductor with an {\it open Fermi surface}, a high magnetic…
We propose a mechanism that helps stabilize a superconducting state with broken time-reversal symmetry, which was predicted to realize in a d-wave superconducting film [A. B. Vorontsov, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 177001 (2009)]. In this…
Surface electronic structure and its one-dimensionality above and below the Fermi level ($E_{\rm F}$) were surveyed on the Bi/GaSb(110)-(2$\times$1) surface hosting quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) Bi chains, using conventional (one-photon) and…

In 2D bosonic systems ultra-soft interactions develop an interesting phenomenology that ultimately leads to the appearance of supersolid phases in free space conditions. While suggested in early theoretical works and despite many further…
The stability of ferromagnetism at the surface at finite temperatures is investigated within the strongly correlated Hubbard model on a semi-infinite lattice. Due to the reduced surface coordination number the effective Coulomb correlation…
