We describe the approach of the superconducting state as a sequence of cross-over phenomena. As the temperature is decreased, uncorrelated pairing of the electrons leads to the opening of a pseudogap at T_F^*. Upon further lowering the…
We study a two-dimensional model of an isolated narrow topological band at partial filling with local attractive interactions. Numerically exact quantum Monte Carlo calculations show that the ground state is a superconductor with a critical…
We analyze superconducting state (both s and d - wave) in a simple exactly solvable model of pseudogap state, induced by short - range order fluctuations (e.g. antiferromagnetic), which is based upon model Fermi - surface with "hot…
Making use of generalized Eliashberg equations, we describe the Altshuler-Aronov (AA) effect and superconductivity on equal footing. We derive explicit expressions for the Coulomb pseudopotential in 3D, taking into account also the…

All non-interacting two-dimensional electronic systems are expected to exhibit an insulating ground state. This conspicuous absence of the metallic phase has been challenged only in the case of low-disorder, low density, semiconducting…
A system of spinless fermions in $d=1+\epsilon$ dimensions, at zero-temperature and in random potential is studied using the perturbative renormalization group to first order in disorder and to second order in interaction. We find a…
We study the insulating phase of disordered indium oxide films that undergo a field-tuned superconductor-insulator transition. The transport measurements in a perpendicular magnetic field show distinct regimes of strongly fluctuating…
A state of an excitonic insulator with the electric current is studied. Initially, in the metallic phase, the electrons and holes are assumed to be moving in the opposite directions, so as the electric current exists. This state is…
We consider the superconducting state of $d+s$ symmetry with finite concentration of Anderson impurities in the limit $\Delta_s/\Delta_d \ll 1$. The model consists of a BCS-like term in the Hamiltonian and the Anderson impurity treated in…

We calculate the zero-temperature universal electrical conductivity at a superconductor-insulator transition in two spatial dimensions. We focus on transitions in the universality class of the dirty 3d XY model. We use a dual model…
