We investigate thermal evolution of radio-frequency (RF) spectra of a spin-imbalanced Fermi gas near a Feshbach resonance in which degenerate Fermi-polaron and classical Boltzmann-gas regimes emerge in the low-temperature and…
In the correlated electron system with the pseudogap, there are full-gapped domains and Fermi-arced domains coexisting. Those domains are created by the quantum-fluctuated antiferromagnetic fluctuations that generate the short-ranged…
I present a simple analytical model describing the normal state of a superconductor with a pseudogap in the density of states, such as in underdoped cuprates. In nearly two-dimensional systems, where the superconducting transition…
Understanding superconductivity emerging from repulsive fermions remains a major challenge in condensed matter physics. In this paper, we investigate the pairing tendencies in a one-dimensional, three component repulsive Hubbard model,…
We consider a system where localized bound electron pairs form an array of "Andreev"-like scattering centers and are coupled to a fermionic subsystem of uncorrelated electrons. By means of a path-integral approach, which describes the bound…
A translation-invariant (TI) bipolaron theory of superconductivity based, like Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory, on Fr\"ohlich Hamiltonian is presented. Here the role of Cooper pairs belongs to TI bipolarons which are pairs of spatially…
We address theoretically the puzzling discontinuity of the radial quadrupole mode frequency observed in a trapped Fermi gas across the BEC-BCS crossover. We apply the scaling transformation to a two-channel model of a resonant Fermi…
Based on the recently developed interaction renormalization for the one-dimensional $p$-wave interaction, we study the problem of a single impurity immersed in a highly polarized Fermi sea. They interact through a narrow $p$-wave Feshbach…
We have observed Fermi polarons, dressed spin down impurities in a spin up Fermi sea of ultracold atoms. The polaron manifests itself as a narrow peak in the impurities' rf spectrum that emerges from a broad incoherent background. We…
The signature of superfluidity in bosonic systems is a sound wave-like spectrum of the single particle excitations which in the case of strong interactions is roughly temperature independent. In fermionic systems, where fermion pairing…
We solve the problem of fermionic pairing mediated by a massless boson in the limit of large coupling constant. At weak coupling, the transition temperature is exponentially small and superconductivity is robust against phase fluctuation.…
The superconducting properties of the 2D fermion system with local and different types of the indirect boson-exchange attractions in the cases of s-wave and d-wave pairing are reviewed and analysed at T=0. In particular, the possibility of…
Cooper's formalism for fermionic pairing has been revisited considering upto 3rd neighbour hopping terms, firstly with a Fermi liquid like background on a square lattice keeping in mind the overdopped cuprates. Then the whole scheme is…
The pseudogap state of cuprate high-temperature superconductors has been often viewed as either a yet unknown competing order or a precursor state to superconductivity. While awaiting the resolution of the pseudogap problem in cuprates, we…
We study the nature of the energy transfer process within a pair of coupled two-level systems (donor and acceptor) subject to interactions with the surrounding environment. Going beyond a standard weak-coupling approach, we derive a master…
We measure radio-frequency spectra for a two-component mixture of a $^6$Li atomic Fermi gas in the quasi-two-dimensional regime. Near the Feshbach resonance, where the transverse Fermi energy is large compared to the confinement-induced…
We consider fermionic polar molecules in a bilayer geometry where they are oriented perpendicularly to the layers, which permits both low inelastic losses and superfluid pairing. The dipole-dipole interaction between molecules of different…
Electron-phonon coupling, diagonal in a real space formulation, leads to polaron paradigm of smoothly varying properties. However, fundamental changes, namely the singular behavior of polarons, occur if non-diagonal pairing is involved into…
Recently, the nature of Cooper pairs in the BCS-BEC crossover has regained attention due to the observation of a large fraction of preformed fermion pairs on the BCS side of the Feshbach resonance in ultracold atomic Fermi gases. While…
By analyzing simple models of fermions in lattice potentials we argue that the zero-temperature pairing instability of any ideal band-insulator occurs at a finite momentum. The resulting supersolid state is known as "pair density wave". The…
