The pseudogap phase of high-$T_c$ cuprates is controversially attributed to preformed pairs or to a phase which coexists and competes with superconductivity. One of the challenges is to develop theoretical and experimental studies in order…
Understanding high-temperature superconductivity in cuprates requires knowledge of the metallic phase it evolves from, particularly the pseudogap profoundly affecting the electronic properties at low carrier densities. A key question is the…
A disordered system is denominated `annealed' when the interactions themselves may evolve and adjust their values to lower the free energy. The opposite (`quenched') situation when disorder is fixed, is the one relevant for physical…
In two dimensions there is a direct superconductor-to-insulator quantum phase transition driven by increasing disorder. We elucidate, using a combination of inhomogeneous mean field theory and quantum Monte Carlo techniques, the nature of…
We propose that the enigmatic pseudogap phase of cuprate superconductors is characterized by a hidden broken symmetry of d(x^2-y^2)-type. The transition to this state is rounded by disorder, but in the limit that the disorder is made…
We consider a two-dimensional model of the pseudogap state, based on the scenario of strong electron scattering by fluctuations of ``dielectric'' (AFM, CDW) short-range order. We construct a system of recurrence equations both for…
The mechanism of high temperature superconductivity is not resolved for so long because the normal state of cuprates is not yet understood. Here we show that the normal state pseudo-gap exhibits an unexpected non-monotonic temperature…
Entrainment of limit cycles by chaos [1] is discovered numerically through specially designed unidirectional coupling of two glow discharge-semiconductor systems. By utilizing the auxiliary system approach [2], it is verified that the…

We study the effects of quenched disorder in a class of quantum chains with (p+1)-multispin interactions exhibiting a free fermionic spectrum, paying special attention to the case p=2. Depending if disorder couples to (i) all the couplings…
Quantum dot spin valves are characterized by exchange fields which induce spin precession and generate current spin resonances even in absence of spin splitting. Analogous effects have been studied in double quantum dots, in which the…
A comprehensive field theory is developed for superconductors with quenched disorder. We first show that the matrix field theory, used previously to describe a disordered Fermi liquid and a disordered itinerant ferromagnet, also has a…
We present a way to quantum-disorder a pair density wave, and propose it to be a candidate of the effective low-energy description of the pseudogap metal which may reveal itself in a sufficiently high magnetic field that suppresses the…
We investigate the effects of quenched disorder on first-order quantum phase transitions on the example of the $N$-color quantum Ashkin-Teller model. By means of a strong-disorder renormalization group, we demonstrate that quenched disorder…
For one-dimensional random Schr\"odinger operators, the integrated density of states is known to be given in terms of the (averaged) rotation number of the Pr\"ufer phase dynamics. This paper develops a controlled perturbation theory for…
In this paper we study the effects of the strong coupling superconductivity on the normal state electronic structure. We point out that the pseudogap phenomena in High-T_c cuprates are naturally explained as a precursor of the strong…
In this paper we give an elementary approach to several results of Chatterjee in arXiv:0907.3381 and arXiv:1404.7178, as well as some generalizations. First, we prove quenched disorder chaos for the bond overlap in the Edwards-Anderson type…
In the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field model for spin glasses, we show that the quenched average of the free energy can be expressed through a couple of functional order parameters, in a form very similar to the one found in the frame of…
