Intrinsic tunneling spectroscopy in high magnetic field ($H$) is used for a direct test of superconducting features in a quasiparticle density of states of high-$T_c$ superconductors. We were able to distinguish with a great clarity two…
Using a SU(2)x U(1) gauge theory for a t-J model around a node of the Fermi surface, we discuss patterns of dynamical symmetry breaking, which may lead to a pseudogap phase and to the appearance of narrow one-dimensional spatial structures,…
A simple interlayer pair tunneling is solved exactly. We find that in the normal state spin-1/2 particle and hole excitations are gapped. But the state is an unusual metal, characterized by novel fermionic spin zero and charge +2e and -2e…

Binding energy, which quantifies pair formation, is a key factor in the emergence of superconductivity. Here, we show that even when multiple spins are complexly coupled, hole-doped systems, which can be mapped onto the universal hardcore…
