Near a quantum-critical point in a metal a strong fermion-fermion interaction, mediated by a soft boson, destroys fermionic coherence and also gives rise to superconductivity. In a class of large $N$ models, one would naively expect an…

Studies of the superconducting proximity effect in normal conductor/superconductor $(N/S)$ junctions almost universally assume no effective electron-electron coupling in the $N$ region. While such an approximation leads to a simple…
