We investigate superconductivity in a grand canonical ensemble with {\it fixed number parity} (even or odd). In the low temperature limit we find small corrections to the BCS gap equation and energy spectrum $E(k)$. The even-odd free energy…
We study finite size effects in superconducting metallic grains and determine the BCS order parameter and the low energy excitation spectrum in terms of size, and shape of the grain. Our approach combines the BCS self-consistency condition,…
We study scaling of the ground-state fidelity in neighborhoods of quantum critical points in a model of interacting spinfull fermions - a BCS-like model. Due to the exact diagonalizability of the model, in one and higher dimensions, scaling…
We present the explicit forms of the maximum eigenvalue and the corresponding eigenfunction for the second-order reduced density matrix (RDM2) of the BCS superconducting state (SS). Using these quantities, we deal with two topics in the…
We analyze the accuracy of BCS-based approximations for calculating correlation energies and odd-even energy differences in 2-component fermionic systems with a small number of pairs. The analysis is focused on comparing BCS and projected…
The reduced BCS Hamiltonian for a metallic grain with a finite number of electrons is considered. The crossover between the ultrasmall regime, in which the level spacing, $d$, is larger than the bulk superconducting gap, $\Delta$, and the…
The condensate of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) pair in the ground state, which may contain information on both topology and spin pairing, promises the superconductivity of the system. In this paper, we study a singlet-triplet spin…
We consider the pairing Hamiltonian and systematically construct its density functional in the strong-coupling limit and in the limit of large particle number. In the former limit, the functional is an expansion into central moments of…
In the large-U limit, the Falicov-Kimball model maps onto an effective Ising model, with an order parameter described by a BCS-like mean-field theory in infinite dimensions. In the small-U limit, van Dongen and Vollhardt showed that the…
We experimentally determined various thermodynamic quantities of interacting two-component fermions at the zero-temperature limit from the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) region to the unitarity limit. The obtained results are very accurate…
We extend previous studies of the BCS canonical approach for the attractive Hubbard model. A derivation of the BCS formulation is presented for both the Hubbard and a simpler reduced Hamiltonian. Using direct diagonalization, exact one and…
We evaluate correlation functions of the BCS model for finite number of particles. The integrability of the Hamiltonian relates it with the Gaudin algebra ${\cal G}[sl(2)]$. Therefore, a theorem that Sklyanin proved for the Gaudin model,…
Generalized BCS equations which consistently include the projection on the particle-number parity are derived from a systematic variational method. Numerical solutions are given that are illustrative of ultra-small metallic grains. Compared…
The superconducting pairing instability---as determined by a divergence of the two-particle susceptibility---is obtained in the mean field (BCS) approximation in the thermodynamic limit. The usual practice is to examine this property for a…
We study the dynamical correlation functions of the Richardson pairing model (also known as the reduced or discrete-state BCS model) in the canonical ensemble. We use the Algebraic Bethe Ansatz formalism, which gives exact expressions for…
We exploit a prescription to observe directly the physical properties of the thermodynamic limit under continuously applied field in one-dimensional quantum finite lattice systems. By systematically scaling down the energy of the…
We study pairing correlations in ultrasmall superconductor in the nanoscopic limit by means of a toy model where electrons are confined in a single, multiply degenerate energy level. We solve the model exactly to investigate the temperature…
Fluctuations of the amplitude of the order parameter govern the properties of superconducting systems close to the critical transition temperature. In the BCS regime we examine the contribution of these pairing fluctuations to the…
We test the canonical BCS wave functions for fixed number of electrons for the attractive Hubbard model. We present results in one dimension for various chain lengths, electron densities, and coupling strengths. The ground-state energy and…
We prove that in the reduced quartic BCS model with an imaginary external magnetic field a spontaneous U(1)-symmetry breaking (SSB) and an off-diagonal long range order (ODLRO) occur. The system is defined on a hyper-cubic lattice with…
