We study superconductivity in a family of one dimensional incommensurate system with $s$-wave pairing interaction. The incommensurate potential can alter the spatial characteristics of electrons in the normal state, leading to either…
Recent experiments performed on cuprates and alkali-doped fullerides have demonstated that key signatures of superconductivity can be induced above the equilibrium critical temperature by optical modulation. These observations in disparate…
We study the interplay between quasi-periodic disorder and superconductivity in a 1D tight-binding model with the quasi-periodic modulation of on-site energies that follow the Fibonacci rule and all the eigenstates are multifractal. As a…
We demonstrate that quasiperiodicity can radically change the ground state properties of 1D moir\'e systems with respect to their periodic counterparts. By studying an illustrative example we show that while narrow bands play a significant…
Quasiperiodic systems are an intermediate class of systems between periodic crystals and disordered systems, famously exhibiting metal-insulator transitions (MITs) even in one dimension. While their transport properties have been studied…
We study the existence of intraband and interband pairing in the extended two band and three-band Hubbard model. It is shown that including interband pairing significantly increases the superconducting critical temperature in comparison…
Superconductivity was recently reported in several quasicrystalline systems. These are materials which are structurally ordered, but since they are not translationally invariant, the usual BCS theory does not apply. At the present time, the…

We study the strong enhancement, induced by random hopping, of the critical temperatures characterizing the transitions to superconductivity, charge-density wave and antiferromagnetism, which can occur in bipartite lattice models at…
In the low doping region an incommensurate magnetic phase is observed in LSCO. By means of the composite operator method we show that the single-band 2D Hubbard model describes the experimental situation. In the higher doping region, where…
It has been proposed that the superconducting transition temperature $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ of an unconventional superconductor with a large pairing scale but strong phase fluctuations can be enhanced by coupling it to a metal. However, the…
Stimulating a system with time dependent sources can enhance instabilities, thus increasing the critical temperature at which the system transitions to interesting low-temperature phases such as superconductivity or superfluidity. After…
We study the interplay of superconductivity and a wide spectrum of critical (multifractal) wave functions ("spectrum-wide quantum criticality," SWQC) in the one-dimensional Aubry-Andr\'e and power-law random-banded matrix models with…
A t-J-like model for inhomogeneous superconductivity of cuprate oxides is presented, in which local anisotropic magnetic terms are essential. We show that this model predicts pairing, consistent with experiments, and argue how the…
We study the effects of quasiperiodicity on the stability of conventional and unconventional superconductors. Quasiperiodicity is modelled using the three-dimensional Aubry-Andre model, a system in which electrons are coupled to a…
We show theoretically that a superconducting critical temperature can be effectively increased in a high-entropy mixture of electrons belonging to conduction and valence bands. In order to employ the entropy of mixing into the…
Using a microscopic approach, we revisit the problem of superconducting critical temperature change in the presence of twin boundaries. We show that both critical temperature enhancement and suppression can come purely from geometric…
Through a comprehensive free energy analysis, we demonstrate that finite temperature can simultaneously weaken superconductivity and mitigate spin polarization induced depairing, leading to potential non-monotonic temperature-dependent…
We study superconductivity in a two-dimensional, disordered marginal Fermi liquid. At the semiclassical level, the transition temperature $T_c$ is strongly suppressed because marginal Fermi liquid effects destroy well-defined…
Atomic-scale disorder is conventionally regarded as detrimental to superconductivity; however, under specific conditions, it can enhance superconducting properties. Here, we investigate the role of substitutional disorder in Remeika-type…
