We show that, under rather general assumptions, the phase diagram of a quasi-one-dimensional repulsive Fermi system consists of two ordered phases: the density wave, spin or charge, and the superconductivity. It is demonstrated that the…
Ultracold atoms in Raman-dressed optical lattices allow for effective momentum-dependent interactions among single-species fermions originating from short-range s-wave interactions. These dressed-state interactions combined with very flat…
