We study the magnetic instability of gapless superconductors. The instability arises due to the infrared divergence associated with the gapless modes of the superconductor. When the Fermi-surface mismatch between pairing fermions is close…
After a review of the crystalline color superconductive (LOFF) phase, I discuss the Nambu Goldstone Boson associated with the breaking of rotational and translational invariance and I briefly consider possible astrophysical implications.
Nambu-Goldstone (NG) modes for 0-form and higher-form symmetries can become unstable in the presence of background fields. Examples include the instability of a photon with a time-dependent axion background or with a chirality imbalance,…
We consider an extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model including both (q \bar q)- and (qq)-interactions with two light-quark flavors in the presence of a single (quark density) chemical potential. In the color superconducting phase of the quark…

Superconductivity (SC) may microscopically coexist with density wave (DW) when the nesting of the Fermi surface (FS) is not perfect. There are, at least, two possible microscopic structures of a DW state with quasi-particle states remaining…
Persistent current generation by small polarons embedded in a spin-density wave background in a two dimensional lattice is theoretically studied. When the embedded small polarons become cores of merons and antimerons (vortices in spin…

Lack of Lorentz invariance of QCD at finite quark chemical potential in general implies the need of Lorentz non-invariant condensates for the self-consistent description of the color-superconducting ground state. Moreover, the spontaneous…
We calculate the effective potential of the 2SC/g2SC phases including vector condensates ($<gA_z^6>$ and $<gA_z^8>$) and study the gluonic phase and the single plane-wave Larkin-Ovchinnikov-Fulde-Ferrell state at nonzero temperature. Our…
Using a $d_{x^2 - y^2}$ superconductor in 2+1 dimensions we show that the Nambu Goldstone fluctuations are replaced by dissipative excitations. We find that the nodal quasi-particles damping is caused by the strong dissipative excitations…
