The characteristic excitation of a metal is its plasmon, which is a quantized collective oscillation of its electron density. In 1956, David Pines predicted that a distinct type of plasmon, dubbed a "demon," could exist in three-dimensional…

Two-dimensional (2D) metals can host gapless plasmonic excitations, which strongly couple to electrons and thus may significantly affect superconductivity in layered materials. To investigate the dynamical interplay of the electron-electron…
The Coulomb drag is a many-body effect observed in proximized low-dimensional systems. It appears as emergence of voltage in one of them upon passage of bias current in another. The magnitude of drag voltage can be strongly affected by…
We investigate the superconductivity in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ on the basis of the three-dimensional three-band Hubbard model. We propose a model with Coulomb interactions among the electrons on the nearest-neighbor Ru sites. In our model the…

In a superconductor electrons form pairs despite the Coulomb repulsion as a result of an effective attractive interaction mediated by, for example phonons. In the present paper DeGennes' description of the dynamically screened Coulomb…

The pair spin-orbit interaction (PSOI) is the spin-orbit component of the electron-electron interaction that originates from the Coulomb fields of the electrons. This relativistic component, which has been commonly assumed small in the…
