We investigate the ground state properties of a disordered superfluid Fermi gas across the BCS-BEC (Bose Einstein condensate) crossover. We show that, for weak disorder, both the depletion of the condensate fraction of pairs and the normal…
Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces of superconducting states arise from point or line nodes by breaking time-reversal symmetry. Because line and point nodes often accompany topologically protected zero-energy surface Andreev bound states (ASBSs) and…

We present a similarity transformation theory based on a polynomial form of a particle-hole pair excitation operator. In the weakly correlated limit, this polynomial becomes an exponential, leading to coupled cluster doubles. In the…
The conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) model of superconductivity assumes a frequency-independent order parameter, which allows a relatively simple description of the superconducting state. In particular, its excitation spectrum…
We calculate superfluid density for a dirty d-wave superconductor. The effects of impurity scattering are treated within the self-consistent t-matrix approximation, in weak-coupling BCS theory. Working from a realistic tight-binding…
