We shall review our recent works on d-wave density wave (dDW) and gossamer superconductivity (i.e. d-wave superconductivity in the presence of dDW) in high-T$_{c}$ cuprates and CeCoIn$_{5}$. a) We show that both the giant Nernst effect and…
Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) $MX_2$ ($M$ = Ti, Nb, Ta; $X$ = S, Se, Te) exhibit a rich set of charge density wave (CDW) orders, which usually coexist and/or compete with superconductivity. The mechanisms of CDWs and…
Suggestive, but indirect evidence of the existence of pair-density wave (PDW) order in several high-$T_{\rm c}$ cuprates has been reported. As this constitutes a new quantum phase of matter, it is important to {\it establish} its existence…

We study theoretically the paramagnetic state in d-wave superconductors. We present the specific heat, the magnetization, superfluid density obtained within the weak-coupling model. At low temperatures and for small magnetic fields they…
Unconventional density wave (UDW) has been speculated as a possible electronic ground state in excitonic insulator in 1968. Recent surge of interest in UDW is partly due to the proposal that the pseudogap phase in high T_c cuprate…
We investigate the instability of layer pseudospin paramagnetic (PSP) state to the formation of pseudospin density wave (PSDW) in two-dimensional (2D) electron bilayers, analogous to the formation of Overhauser spin density wave (SDW) in a…
The issue of whether $d$-wave superconductivity (SC) occurs in the square-lattice Hubbard model with $U$ of order of the bandwidth has been one of the most debated issues to emerge from the study of high temperature SC. Here, we report…
We have systematically studied superconducting instabilities in the repulsive Hubbard model for d-wave and p-wave pairing in various 2D and 3D lattices. Using fluctuation exchange approximation, we consider 3D face centered cubic lattice,…
In this paper, we discuss physical consequences of pseudospin SU(2) symmetry breaking in the negative-U Hubbard model at half-filling. If pseudospin symmetry is spontaneously broken while its unique subgroup U(1) remains invariant, it will…
