The many-body ground state of a two-dimensional electron system can be tuned by Coulomb engineering through control of the dielectric environment. However, in conventional dielectrics the static permittivity is restricted to positive…
It is well known that electron-electron interaction in disordered systems leads to logarithmically divergent Altshuler-Aronov corrections to conductivity at low temperatures ($T\tau\ll 1$; $\tau$ is the elastic mean-free time). This paper…

Near a quantum critical point (QCP) in a metal, strong Fermion-Fermion interactions mediated by soft collective bosons give rise to two competing phenomena: non-Fermi liquid behavior and superconductivity that deviates from conventional BCS…
A concrete question is discussed: Can there be conventional s-wave superconductivity in regular 3D (or 2D) metals, i.e., electrons in a jellium background, interacting via the standard Coulomb coupling? We are interested in 'practical' SC…
