Dipole interaction in the triplet superconductivity is studied. If the Cooper pairs are formed by the electrons at $\mib{r}$ and $\mib{r}+(\pm\frac{a}{2},\pm\frac{a}{2},\pm\frac{c}{2})$ in the body centered tetragonal lattice, (in this case…
Like electrons, Cooper pairs can carry a monopole charge if the pairing electrons come from two or more Fermi surfaces with different Chern numbers. In such an instance, a superconductor is necessarily nodal due to an inherent topological…

To pinpoint the microscopic mechanism for superconductivity has proven to be one of the most outstanding challenges in the physics of correlated quantum matter. Thus far, the most direct evidence for an electronic pairing mechanism is the…
We study the possibility of excitonic pairing in layered degenerate semimetals such as graphite, where the electron density of states almost vanishes at the Fermi level and, therefore, the Coulomb interactions remain essentially unscreened.…
In this work we study interacting electrons on square lattice in the presence of strong Rashba spin-orbit interaction. The spin-orbit term forces the time-reversal electron states to be paired in even Cooper channels. For concreteness, we…

When superconducting pairing occurs between Fermi surfaces with different Chern numbers, the Cooper pairs possess nontrivial pair Berry phase, which enforces pairing gap nodes. The resulting pairing order is further distinguished from the…
