In two dimensions the non-interacting density of states displays a Van Hove singularity (VHS) which introduces an intrinsic electron-hole asymmetry, absent in three dimensions. We show that due to this VHS the strong-coupling analysis of…
The dynamical properties of hole motion in an antiferromagnetic background are determined in one dimensional models in zero magnetic field, where spin isotropy holds, as well as in an external magnetic field. The latter case is also…
We show that nonequilibrium spin injection into a superconductor can generate an anomalous supercurrent or induce a phase gradient, even for spin voltages below the superconducting gap. Our mechanism does not require breaking time-reversal…
Superconductivity in alkali-intercalated iron selenide, with T_c's of 30K and above, may have a different origin than that of the other Fe-based superconductors, since it appears that the Fermi surface does not have any holelike sheets…
