We study the properties of an anisotropically paired superconductor in the presence of a specularly reflecting surface. The bulk stable phase of the superconducting order parameter is taken to have $d_{x^2-y^2}$ symmetry. Contributions by…
Recent local tunneling data indicate strong nanoscale inhomogeneity of superconducting gap in high temperature superconductors. Strong local nanoscale inhomogeneity in the bosonic scattering mode has also been observed in the same samples.…
The pairing symmetry is one of the major issues in the study of iron-based superconductors. We adopt a minimal two-band tight-binding model with various channels of pairing interaction, and derive a set of two-band Bogoliubov-de Gennes…
We explore the interplay of a charge density wave (CDW) order and s-wave superconductivity (sSC) in a disordered system. Recent experiments on 1T-TiSe_2, where the pristine sample has a commensurate CDW order and the superconductivity…
This paper deals with the study of the behaviour of the wave functions of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate near the interface, in the case of strong segregation. This yields a system of two coupled ODE's for which we want to have…

We introduce the idea that the electronic band structure of a charge density wave system may mimic the electronic structure of graphene. In that case a class of materials quite different from graphene might be opened up to exploit…
We consider the minimal two-band model for the Fe-based superconductors with a phenomenological pairing interaction which mimics short-range antiferromagnetic (AFM) fluctuations. Two superconducting (SC) gap solutions are found to exist…

The electronic structure around an impurity in spin triplet p-wave superconductors is studied by the Bogoliubov-de Gennes theory on a tight-binding model, where we have chosen $\sin{p_x}{+}{\rm i}\sin{p_y}$-wave or $\sin{(p_x+p_y)}{+}{\rm…
We consider the effect of the finite size in the ab-plane on the surface density of states (DoS) in clean d-wave superconductors. In the bulk, the DoS is gapless along the nodal directions, while the presence of a surface leads to formation…
We study the electronic structure within a system of phase-decoupled one-dimensional superconductors coexisting with stripe spin and charge density wave order. This system has a nodal Fermi surface (Fermi arc) in the form of a hole pocket…
We propose that the odd-frequency $s$ wave ($s^{\rm{odd}}$ wave) superconducting gap function, which is usually unstable in the bulk, naturally emerges at the edge of $d$ wave superconductors. This prediction is based on the surface spin…
