The strange metal (SM) state, characterized by a linear-in-temperature resistivity, is often seen in the normal state of high temperature superconductors. It is believed that the SM state is one of the keys to understand the underlying…
The high-temperature normal state of the unconventional cuprate superconductors has resistivity linear in temperature $T$, which persists to values well beyond the Mott-Ioffe-Regel upper bound. At low-temperature, within the pseudogap…
The interplay between band and atomic aspects in materials with co-existing wide-band and flat-band states, or wide-band and effectively dispersionless electronic states is increasingly expected to lead to novel behavior. Using dynamical…
Attaching a superconductor in good contact with a normal metal makes rise to a proximity effect where the superconducting correlations leak into the normal metal. An additional contact close to the first one makes it possible to carry a…
We construct a model which exhibits resistivity going as a power law in temperature $T$, as $T^\alpha$ down to the lowest temperature. There is no residual resistivity because we assume the absence of disorder and momentum relaxation is due…

The theory of hole superconductivity predicts that in superconductors the charged superfluid is about a million times more rigid than the normal electron fluid. We point out that this physics should give rise to large changes in the bulk…
