We study the competition between a Pomeranchuk instability in the spin channel with angular momentum $\ell=1$ and an attractive interaction, favoring Cooper-pair formation. We found that the superconducting gap strongly suppresses the phase…

I present a microscopic theory I proposed recently to describe high-T_c superconductivity in cuprates. I show that coherent pairing states consisting of extended singlet Cooper pairs and triplet $\pi$ pairs can manifest both the Mott…
In the BCS theory of superconductivity, one assumes that all Cooper pairs have the same center of mass momentum. This is indeed enforced by self consistency, if the pairing interaction is momentum independent. Here, we show that for an…

We theoretically propose an idea to reach the $p$-wave superfluid phase in an ultracold Fermi gas. The key of our idea is that the pairing symmetry of a Fermi superfluid is fully dominated by the symmetry of the superfluid order parameter,…
