The collective mode spectrum of a symmetry-breaking state, such as a superconductor, provides crucial insight into the nature of the order parameter. In this context, we present a microscopic weak-coupling theory for the collective modes of…
We point out that a system which supports chiral superconductivity should also support a chiral pseudogap phase: a finite temperature phase wherein superconductivity is lost but time reversal symmetry is still broken. This chiral pseudogap…
We examine the Bogoliubov-de Gennes Hamiltonian and its symmetries for a time-reversal symmetry broken three dimensional Weyl superconductor. In the limit of vanishing pairing potential, we specify that this Hamiltonian is invariant under…

High-temperature superconductors (high-Tc SCs) host a rich landscape of electronic phases encompassing the pseudogap, strange metal, superconducting, antiferromagnetic insulating, and Fermi-liquid regimes. The superconducting phase is…
The hexagonal superconductor SrPtAs exhibits time-reversal-symmetry breaking below $T_c$, hinting at an unconventional pairing state. Therefore, the symmetry of the underlying crystal is important for the classification of possible gap…
This paper has been removed by arXiv administrators because it overlaps gr-qc/0303009, hep-th/0405047, gr-qc/0412120, and others. This paper also has excessive overlap with the following papers also written by the authors or their…
The existence of a normal state spectral gap in underdoped cuprates raises important questions about the associated superconducting phase. For example, how does this pseudogap evolve into its below Tc counterpart? In this paper we…

We demonstrate that films of unconventional (d-wave) superconductor at temperatures $T\lesssim 0.43 T_c$ can exhibit unusual superconducting phases. The new ground states beside the broken gauge and the point group symmetries can…
We provide numerical evidence that the Onsager symmetry remains valid for systems subject to a spatially dependent magnetic field, in spite of the broken time-reversal symmetry. In addition, for the simplest case in which the field strength…
Superconductors that spontaneously break time-reversal symmetry host complex order parameters and are widely regarded as a hallmark of unconventional superconductivity. Whether such symmetry breaking can also arise in superconductors with…
In the standard physical interpretation of quantum theory, prediction and retrodiction are not symmetric. The opposite assertion by some authors results from their use of non-standard interpretations of the theory.
We generalize many recent uniqueness results on the fractional Calder\'on problem to cover the cases of all domains with nonempty exterior. The highlight of our work is the characterization of uniqueness and nonuniqueness of partial data…
Superconductivity is a remarkably widespread phenomenon observed in most metals cooled down to very low temperatures. The ubiquity of such conventional superconductors, and the wide range of associated critical temperatures, is readily…
