We consider nonlinear dynamics of a single vortex in a superconductor in a strong rf magnetic field $B_0\sin\omega t$. Using the London theory, we calculate the dissipated power $Q(B_0,\omega)$, and the transient time scales of vortex…
We have used two-fluid dynamics to study the discrepancy between the work of Thouless, Ao and Niu (TAN) and that of Iordanskii. In TAN no transverse force on a vortex due to normal fluid flow was found, whereas the earlier work found a…
Longitudinal and transverse voltages have been measured in zero external magnetic fields. In close vicinity of the superconducting transition nonzero transverse voltage has been observed while far away from Tc, both above and below no such…
Superflow in a phenomenological tight-binding model for the superconducting state of some High-temperature superconductors is discussed thoroughly. The formalism used is explicitly gauge-invariant and currents are computed exactly within…
Superconducting state is achieved through quantum condensation of Cooper pairs which are new types of charge carriers other than single electrons in normal metals. The theory established by Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) in 1957 can…

A microscopic analysis of the non-dissipative force ${\bf F}_{nd}$ acting on a line vortex in a type-II superconductor at $T=0$ is given. We first examine the Berry phase induced in the true superconducting ground state by movement of the…
We consider the transverse force on a moving vortex with the acoustic metric using the $\phi $-mapping topological current theory. In the frame of effective spacetime geometry the vortex appear naturally by virtue of the vortex tensor in…
We present a self-consistent theory for the thermodynamics of the BCS-BEC crossover in the normal and superfluid phase which is both conserving and gapless. It is based on the variational many-body formalism developed by Luttinger and Ward…
The paper reassesses the old but still controversial problem of the transverse force on a vortex and the vortex mass. The transverse force from free bulk quasiparticles on the vortex, both in the Bose and the Fermi liquid, originates from…
Lately, there has been much interest in high temperature superconductors, and more recently hydrogen-based superconductors. This work offers a simple model which explains the behavior of the superconducting gap based on BCS theory, and…
Reconnecting vortices in a superfluid allow for the energy transfer between different length scales and its subsequent dissipation. The present picture assumes that the dynamics of a reconnection is driven mostly by the phase of the order…
I argue that the conventional BCS-London theory of superconductivity does not explain the most fundamental property of superconductors, the Meissner effect: how is the Meissner current generated, and how is it able to defy Faraday's law?…
It has been known since the pioneering work of Onsager and Feynman that the statistical mechanics and dynamics of vortices play an essential role in the behavior of superfluids and superconductors. However, the theory of vortices in quantum…
The total transverse force acting on a quantized vortex in a type-II superconductor determines the Hall response in the mixed state, yet a consensus as to its correct form is still lacking. In this paper we present an essentially exact…
We report the existence of dissipationless currents in bilayer superconductors above the critical temperature $T_c$, assuming that the superconducting phase transition is dominated by phase fluctuations. Using a semiclassical $U(1)$ lattice…
