We investigate the stability of spatially uniform solutions for the collisionless dynamics of a fermionic superfluid. We demonstrate that, if the system size is larger than the superfluid coherence length, the solution characterized by a…
Pairing lies at the heart of superfluidity in fermionic systems. Motivated by recent experiments in mesoscopic Fermi gases, we study up to six fermionic atoms with equal masses and equal populations in two different spin states, confined in…
By means of a specific heat ($C$) and electrical resistivity ($\varrho$) study, we give evidence of a pronounced Fermi liquid (FL) behavior with sizable mass renormalization, $m^{\ast}/m = 30$, up to unusually high temperatures $\sim$70 K…
We derive a generic formalism for studying the energy conversion processes in bounded metals. Using this formalism we show that in the collision-less limit the Fermi sea of metals should experience an instability against surface plasma…

It is shown that the appearance of a fixed-point singularity in the kernel of the two-electron Cooper problem is responsible for the formation of the Cooper pair for an arbitrarily weak attractive interaction between two electrons. This…
We present a superfluid theory of a polarized dipolar Fermi gas. For two dipolar molecules each of which consists of two atoms with positive charge and negative charge, we derive an effective dipole-dipole pairing interaction. Using this…

We study cross-flavor Cooper pairing in a relativistic system of two fermion species with mismatched Fermi surfaces. We find that there exist gapless phases which are characterized by either one or two gapless nodes in the energy spectra of…

We study the coherence properties of a trapped two-component gas of fermionic atoms below the BCS critical temperature. We propose an optical method to investigate the Cooper-pair coherence across different regions of the superfluid.…
Although recent theoretical and experimental progress have considerably clarified pairing mechanisms in spin 1/2 fermionic superfluid with equally populated internal states, many open questions remain when the two spin populations are…
We provide an exact description of out-of-equilibrium fixed points in quantum impurity systems, that is able to treat time-dependent forcing. Building on this, we then show that analytical out-of-equilibrium results, that exactly treat…
We investigate a two-component Fermi gas with unequal spin populations along the BCS-BEC crossover. By using the extended BCS equations and the concept of off-diagonal-long-range-order we derive a formula for the condensate number of Cooper…
We consider a layered system of fermionic molecules with permanent dipole moments aligned by an external field. The dipole interactions between fermions in adjacent layers are attractive and induce inter-layer pairing. Due to competition…
Superfluidity or superconductivity with mismatched Fermi momenta appears in many systems such as charge neutral dense quark matter, asymmetric nuclear matter, and in imbalanced cold atomic gases. The mismatch plays the role of breaking the…

We consider a model for the motion of an impurity interacting with two parallel, one-dimensional (bosonized) fermionic baths. The impurity is able to move along any of the baths, and to jump from one to the other. We provide a perturbative…
We theoretically investigate strong-coupling properties of an odd-frequency Fermi superfluid. This pairing state has the unique property that Cooper pairs are formed between fermions, not at the same time, but at different times. To see…
