A conventional superconductor is described by a single complex order parameter field which has two fundamental length scales, the magnetic field penetration depth \lambda and the coherence length \xi. Their ratio \kappa determines the…
In contrast to single-component superconductors, which are described at the level of Ginzburg-Landau theory by a single parameter \kappa and are divided in type-I \kappa<1/\sqrt{2} and type-II \kappa>1/\sqrt{2} classes, two-component…
In general a superconducting state breaks multiple symmetries and, therefore, is characterized by several different coherence lengths $\xi_i$, $i=1,...,N$. Moreover in multiband material even superconducting states that break only a single…
The article reviews recent developments on magnetic properties of superconductors with anisotropic Cooper pairing. In particular, we show how the concept of broken symmetries is applied to the investigation of the mixed state in…
Usual superconductors are classified into two categories as follows: type-1 when the ratio of the magnetic field penetration length (\lambda) to coherence length (\xi) with Ginzburg-Landau parameter \kappa=\lambda/\xi <1/\sqrt{2} and type-2…
The recent discovery of iron pnictide superconductors has resulted in a rapidly growing interest in multiband models with more than two bands. In this work we specifically focus on the properties of three-band Ginzburg-Landau models which…
In the usual Ginzburg-Landau theory the critical value of the ratio of two fundamental length scales in the thery $\kappa_c=1/\sqrt{2}$ separates regimes of type-I and type-II superconductivity. The latter regime possess thermodynamically…
The classical criterion for classification of superconductors as type-I or type-II based on the isotropic Ginzburg-Landau theory is generalized to arbitrary temperatures for materials with anisotropic Fermi surfaces and order parameters. We…
The field-angular dependence and anisotropy of the critical current density in iron-based superconductors is evaluated using a phenomenological approach featuring distinct anisotropy factors for the penetration depth and the coherence…
We study the structure of symmetric vortices in a Ginzburg-Landau model based on S. C. Zhang's SO(5) theory of high temperature superconductivity and antiferromagnetism. We consider both a full Ginzburg-Landau theory (with Ginzburg-Landau…
A fundamental characteristic of a superconducting state is the coherence length $\xi$. Multicomponent superconductors, particularly ones breaking multiple symmetries, are characterized by multiple coherence lengths. Here we show that even,…
We demonstrate formation of hierarchical structures in two-dimensional systems with multiple length scales in the inter-particle interaction. These include states such as clusters of clusters, concentric rings, clusters inside a ring, and…
We investigate the behavior of vortices of multi-component superconductivity, realized in $\rm{MgB_2}$ and Fe-based superconductors, within the framework of Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory in terms of numerical calculations of the…
A novel phenomenological approach to the analysis of the conductivities of incoherent layered crystals is presented. It is based on the fundamental relationship between the resistive anisotropy $\sigma_{ab}/\sigma_c$ and the ratio of the…
In superconductors with large values of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter, exposed to magnetic fields close to the upper critical field, the magnetic field is practically homogeneous across the sample and the density of supercurrents is…
The angular and temperature dependence of the upper critical field Hc2 in MgB2 was determined from torque magnetometry measurements on single crystals. The Hc2 anisotropy gamma_H was found to decrease with increasing temperature, in…
A method is developed to compute minimal energy vortex lattices in a general Ginzburg-Landau model of a superconductor subjected to an applied magnetic field. The model may have any number of components and may be spatially anisotropic. The…
The vortex states in a thin mesoscopic disk are investigated within the phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory in the presence of different ''model'' magnetic field profiles with zero average field which may result from a ferromagnetic…
The self-consistent solutions of a nonlinear Ginzburg--Landau equations, which describe the behavior of a superconducting plate of thickness 2D in a magnetic field H parallel to its surface (provided that there are no vortices inside the…
Using large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we determine the ground state phase diagram of the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the honeycomb lattice for the most generic case of three varying interaction strengths…
