Vortex fluctuations in the $La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4+\delta}$ system have been studied as a function of magnetic field, temperature and carrier concentration in order to determine the dimensionality of the fluctuations. For a $x=0.10$ sample,…
In this paper we argue that d-wave symmetry is a general consequence of superconductivity driven by repulsive interactions. Van Hove (or flat band) effects, deriving from the two dimensionality of the $CuO_2$ plane are important in…

Topological defects such as quantized vortices are one of the most striking manifestations of the superfluid nature of Bose-Einstein condensates and typical examples of quantum mechanical phenomena on a macroscopic scale. Here we…
We investigate the superconducting states of the high-Tc superconductors which we argue to be commensurately locked by the tilted rigid octahedral distortion. The method is based on the analysis of the kinematics of the rigid-octahedra…
Emergent phases often appear when the electronic kinetic energy is comparable to the Coulomb interactions. One approach to seek material systems as hosts of such emergent phases is to realize localization of electronic wavefunctions due to…
