More recently STM experimets present firm evidence of some kind of charge modulation in underdoped cuprates. The peculiar observations of the above experiments are located in the so called pseudo-gap region of the phase diagram, just over…
The crossover from superconducting gap to pseudogap is considered. We show that the superconductivity is destroyed at the temperature $T_c$, with the superconducting gap being smoothly transformed into the pseudogap. Relations, which are of…
In this paper the fundamental parameters of high-$T_c$ superconductivity are shown to be connected to the statistics of pairons (hole pairs in their antiferromagnetic environment) on a square lattice. In particular, we study the density…
We develop a semi-quantitative theory of electron pairing and resulting superconductivity in bulk "poor conductors" in which Fermi energy $E_F$ is located in the region of localized states not so far from the Anderson mobility edge $E_c$.…
We study the mesoscopic fluctuations of thermodynamic observables in a nanosized metallic grain in which the single-particle dynamics are chaotic and the dimensionless Thouless conductance is large. Such a grain is modeled by the universal…
We consider a quantum-critical metal with interaction mediated by fluctuations of a critical order parameter. This interaction gives rise to two competing tendencies -- pairing and non-Fermi liquid behavior. Due to competition, the pairing…
We report angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements of the excitation gap in underdoped superconducting thin films of Bi_2Sr_2Ca_{1-x}Dy_xCu_2O_{8+d}. As Tc is reduced by a factor of 2 by underdoping, the superconducting state…
Inelastic neutron scattering data for YBaCuO as well as for LaSrCuO indicate incommensurate neutron scattering peaks with incommensuration $\delta(x)$ away from the $(\pi,\pi)$ point. $T_c(x)$ can be replotted as a linear function of the…
The pair-fluctuation contribution reduces the electrostatic screening length in superconductivity as compared to the normal state. When a conductor possesses a static background charge distribution, superconductivity arises even in the…
We study a holographic superconductor model with momentum relaxation due to massless scalar fields linear to spatial coordinates($\psi_I = \beta \delta_{Ii} x^i$), where $\beta$ is the strength of momentum relaxation. In addition to the…
We develop a theory of a pseudogap state appearing near the superconductor-insulator transition in strongly disordered metals with attractive interaction. We show that such an interaction combined with the fractal nature of the single…
We calculate Aslamazov-Larkin paraconductity $\sigma_{AL}(T)$ for a model of strongly disordered superconductors (dimensions $d=2,3$) with a large pseudogap whose magnitude strongly exceeds transition temperature $T_c$. We show that, within…
The non-mesonic weak decay of $\Lambda$-hypernuclei is studied within a microscopic diagrammatic approach which includes, for the first time, the effect or the $\Delta$-baryon resonance. We adopt a nuclear matter formalism extended to…
Nuclear pairing interaction plays a crucial role in both macroscopic-microscopic and fully macroscopic descriptions of nuclei. In the present study we discuss different pairing interactions (monopole and delta pairing forces) and the…
By using the gauge-invariant kinetic equation approach [Yang and Wu, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 98}, 094507 (2018); {\bf 100}, 104513 (2019)], we construct the coupled dual dynamics of macroscopic phase coherence and microscopic electronic fluids in…
We analyze critical behavior of superfluid density $\rho_s$ in strongly disordered superconductors near superconductor-insulator transition and compare it with the behavior of the spectral gap $\Delta$ for collective excitations. We show…

Using Indium on Si(111) as an atomically thin superconductor platform, and by systematically controlling the density of nano-hole defects (nanometer size voids), we reveal the impacts of defects density and defects geometric arrangements on…
We discuss the local and nonlocal dissipation effects on the existence of the global phase coherence transitions in two dimensional Josephson-coupled junctions. The quantum phase transitions are also examined for various lattice geometries:…
