Universality and crossover is described for attractive and repulsive interactions where, respectively, the BCS-BEC crossover takes place and a ferromagnetic phase transition is claimed. Crossovers are also described for optical lattices and…

We present a theoretical study of the BEC-BCS crossover in the Bose-Einstein-Condensate regime (BEC), in the case of an unequal number of fermions of two species. We take full account of the composite nature of the dimers made of fermions.…
