We show that a two-dimensional (2D) spin-polarised Fermi gas immersed in a 3D Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) constitutes a very promising system to realise a $p_x+ip_y$ superfluid. The fermions attract each other via an induced interaction…

Topological superfluids usually refer to a superfluid state which is gapped in the bulk but metallic at the boundary. Here we report that a gapless, topologically non-trivial superfluid with inhomogeneous Fulde-Ferrell pairing order…

Proliferation of defects is a mechanism that allows for topological phase transitions. Such a phase transition is found in two dimensions for the XY-model, which lies in the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) universality class. The…
Superconducting nanofilms are tunable systems that can host a 3D-2D dimensional crossover, leading to the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) superconducting transition approaching the 2D regime. Reducing further the dimensionality, from…
A phase diagram for a quasi-2D metal with variable carrier density has been derived. The phases present are the normal phase, where the order parameter is zero; the pseudogap phase where the absolute value of the order parameter is non-zero…
Recent studies of delocalization-localization transitions in disordered quantum chains have highlighted the role of rare, chain-breaking events that favor localization, in particular for high-energy eigenstates related to many-body…
In this paper we follow the analysis and protocols of recent experiments, combined with simple theory, to arrive at a physical understanding of quasi-condensation in two dimensional Fermi gases. We find that quasi-condensation mirrors…

We derive the scaling structure of the Kosterlitz-Thouless-Berezinskii (KTB) transition temperature of a homogeneous Bose gas in two dimensions within diagrammatic perturbation theory. Approaching the system from above the transition, we…
As the spin-triplet superconductivity arises from the condensation of spinful Cooper pairs, its full characterization requires not only charge ordering, but also spin ordering. For a two-dimensional (2D) easy-plane spin-triplet…
