An unconventional superconductor is distinguished with two types of gap functions: unitary and non-unitary. This core subject has been concentrated on purely spin-triplet or singlet-triplet mixed superconductors. However, the generalization…
As shown in former papers, the nonadiabatic Heisenberg model presents a novel mechanism of Cooper pair formation which is not the result of an attractive electron-electron interaction but can be described in terms of quantum mechanical…
An indispensable ingredient for pair density wave (PDW) superconductivity is the presence of an attractive pairing interaction at finite momentum. Here, we show how this condition can be met with straightforward electron-density…
This paper discusses the origin of a nonuniform superconducting state in which Cooper pairs have a small but finite center-of-mass momentum. We analyze the instability of the normal state to such finite-momentum states using the pole of the…

Pairing occurs in conventional superconductors through a reduction of the electronic potential energy accompanied by an increase in kinetic energy, indicating that the transition is driven by a pairing potential. In the underdoped cuprates,…

Superconductivity and magnetism generally do not coexist. Changing the relative number of up and down spin electrons disrupts the basic mechanism of superconductivity, where atoms of opposite momentum and spin form Cooper pairs. Nearly…
Semiconductor point contacts can be a useful tool for producing spin-polarized currents in the presence of spin-orbit (SO) interaction. Neither magnetic fields nor magnetic materials are required. By numerical studies, we show that (i) the…
In superconductors with large values of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter, exposed to magnetic fields close to the upper critical field, the magnetic field is practically homogeneous across the sample and the density of supercurrents is…
It is shown that color-superconducting quark matter, where quarks of the same flavor form Cooper pairs with spin one, exhibits an electromagnetic Meissner effect. This is in contrast to spin-zero color superconductors where Cooper pairs…
Using the variational Monte-Carlo method we find that a relatively weak long-range electron-phonon interaction induces a d-wave superconducting state of doped Mott-Hubbard insulators and/or strongly-correlated metals with a condensation…
Magnetic and superconducting pairing correlation functions in a general class of Hubbard models, the t-J model and a single-band Hubbard model with additional bond-charge interaction are investigated, respectively. Some rigorous upper…
We investigate the effect of periodic driving by an external field on systems with attractive pairing interactions. These include spin systems (like the ferromagnetic XXZ model) as well as ultracold fermionic atoms described by the…
This work present a new class of variational wave functions for fermi systems in any dimension. These wave functions introduce correlations between Cooper pairs in different momentum states and the relevant correlations can be computed…
