We study the odd-frequency Cooper pairs formed near the surface of superfluid 3He. The odd-frequency pair amplitude is closely related to the local density of states in the low energy limit. We derive a formula relating explicitly the two…

The "parity" anomaly -- more accurately described as an anomaly in time-reversal or reflection symmetry -- arises in certain theories of fermions coupled to gauge fields and/or gravity in a spacetime of odd dimension. This anomaly has…

The imbalanced superfluid state of spin-1/2 fermions with s-wave pairing is numerically studied by solving the Bogoliubov-de-Gennes equation at zero temperature in an annular disk geometry with narrow radial width. Two distinct types of…

Quench dynamics of fermionic superfluids are an active topic both experimentally and theoretically. Using the BCS theory, such non-equilibrium problems can be reduced to nearly independent spin dynamics, only with a time-dependent…

We consider the model of superconducting pairing with the energy gap function which is odd over $k-k_{F}$.\ In this case superconductivity is possible even in the presence of an arbitrarily large point-like repulsion between electrons,\…

Fermionic condensation typically occurs via pairing. In recent decades, however, a fundamental question has emerged: whether alternative forms of order exist, such as condensates of fermion quadruplets. These states--including ``charge-4e"…

The possible symmetries of the superconducting pair amplitude is a consequence of the fermionic nature of the Cooper pairs. For spin-$1/2$ systems this leads to the $\mathcal{SPOT}=-1$ classification of superconductivity, where…
