We show that the extended attractive Hubbard model on a square lattice hosts a variety of superconducting phases, including exotic mixed-symmetry phases with $d_{x^2-y^2} + {\rm i} [s + d_{x^2+y^2}]$ and $ d_{x^2-y^2} + p_{x}$ symmetries,…
We study small perturbations of diffusion processes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that leave invariant a finite collection of hypersurfaces. Each surface is assumed to be repelling for the unperturbed process, and the unperturbed motion on each of the…
