The charge density wave (CDW) is a condensate that often forms in layered materials. It is known to carry electric current \emph{en masse}, but the transport mechanism remains poorly understood at the microscopic level. Its quantum nature…
A quantum interference effect is discussed for subgap tunneling over a distance comparable to the coherence length, which is a consequence of ``advanced-advanced'' and ``retarded-retarded'' transmission modes [Altland and Zirnbauer, Phys.…
We study the in-gap states of the quantum dot hybridized to a conducting and superconducting electrode. The usual proximity effect suppresses electronic states over the entire subgap regime $|\omega| < \Delta$, where $\Delta$ denotes the…

It is usually argued that the presence of gapless quasiparticle excitations at the nodes of the d-wave superconducting gap should strongly decohere the quantum states of a d-wave qubit, making quantum effects practically unobservable. Using…
Electronic states and transport properties of double-wall carbon nanotubes without impurities are studied in a systematic manner. It is revealed that scattering in the bulk is negligible and the number of channels determines the average…

We study a Kondo state that is strongly influenced by its proximity to an w^-1/2 singularity in the metallic host density of states. This singularity occurs at the bottom of the band of a 1D chain, for example. We first analyze the…
We consider a multiband metal with deep primary bands and a shallow secondary one. In the normal state the system undergoes Lifshitz transition when the bottom of the shallow band crosses the Fermi level. In the superconducting state Cooper…

We study the effects of imperfect nesting in a simple 2D tight-binding model on the electronic properties in the density-wave (DW) state. The discussed model reflects the main features of quasi-1D metals, where the DW emerges. We show that…
We investigate the charge density wave (CDW) instability in single and double layers, as well as in the bulk 2H-NbSe$_{2}$. We demonstrate that the density functional theory correctly describes the metallic CDW state in the bulk…

We determine the local density of states (LDOS) of one-dimensional incommensurate charge density wave (CDW) states in the presence of a strong impurity potential, which is modeled by a boundary. We find that the CDW gets pinned at the…
The charge-density-wave (CDW) instability in the underdoped, pseudogap part of the cuprate phase diagram has been a major recent research focus, yet measurements of dynamic, energy-resolved CDW correlations are still in their infancy. We…
