We develop a method to solve the Bogoliubov de Gennes equation for superconductors self-consistently, using the recursion method. The method allows the pairing interaction to be either local or non-local corresponding to s and d-wave…

We have previously shown that a ferromagnet-superconductor heterostructure may possess a spontaneous current circulation parallel to the interface. This current is caused by Andreev bound states in the thin ferromagnetic layer, and can be…
In the presence of an external magnetic field, the low lying elementary excitations of a d-wave superconductor have quantized energy and their momenta are locked near the node direction. It is argued that these discrete states can most…
Recent observations have revealed the emergence of an unusual normal phase when a magnetic flux threads an ultra-thin superconducting cylinder. Moreover, with increasing temperature, the resistance rises in a series of abrupt jumps. These…
Superconductivity is a phenomenon where electrical current flows without friction. The current standard theory for it is the BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) theory, which explains it as due to the energy gap formation by the…
In the correlated electron system with the pseudogap, there are full-gapped domains and Fermi-arced domains coexisting. Those domains are created by the quantum-fluctuated antiferromagnetic fluctuations that generate the short-ranged…

A D5 brane winding around a stack of D3 branes can be used as a model of persistent current in a thin superconducting ring, with the number N of D3s corresponding to the number of transverse channels in the ring. We consider, in the large N…
We unveil the microscopic origin of the topologically ordered counterpart of the s-wave superconductor in this work. For this, we employ the recently developed unitary renormalisation group (URG) method on a generalised model of 2D…
