We analyze the superconducting instabilities in the vicinity of the quantum-critical point of an inversion symmetry breaking order. We first show that the fluctuations of the inversion symmetry breaking order lead to two degenerate…
Multi-orbital quantum materials with strong interactions can host a variety of novel phases. In this work we study the possibility of interaction-driven superconductivity in the iridate compound Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ under strain and doping. We…
It has been shown [1] that many seemingly contradictory experimental findings concerning the superconducting state in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ can be accounted for as resulting from the existence of an assumed tetra-critical point at near ambient…
A variety of precise experiments have been carried out to establish the character of the superconducting state in Sr2RuO4. Many of these appear to imply contradictory conclusions concerning the symmetries of this state. Here, we propose…
There is considerable evidence that the superconducting state of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ breaks time reversal symmetry. In the experiments showing time reversal symmetry breaking its onset temperature, $T_\text{TRSB}$, is generally found to match the…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking constitutes a paradigmatic classification scheme of matter. However, broken symmetry also entails domain degeneracy that often impedes identification of novel low symmetry states. In quantum matter, this is…
We review and extend a previous study on the symmetry of the superconducting state, stimulated by recent tunneling and Andreev reflection measurements giving robust evidences for the existence of a $d_{x^2-y^2}+id_{xy}$ order parameter in…
I elaborate the construction of the recent two-orbital model for iron-based superconductors\cite{hu-hao} and discuss the properties of superconducting(SC) phases based on the $S_4$ symmetry. I demonstrate further that the underlining…
Many seemingly contradictory experimental findings concerning the superconducting state in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ can be accounted for on the basis of a conjectured accidental degeneracy between two patterns of pairing that are unrelated to each…
We consider the effect of the nematic order on the formation of the superconducting state in iron pnictides and chalcogenides. Nematic order with the $B_{2g}$ symmetry is modelled as the $d$-type Pomeranchuk instability and treated within…
We show that the observed time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) of the superconducting state in $\mathrm{Sr}_{2}\mathrm{Ru}\mathrm{O}_{4}$ can be understood as originating from inhomogeneous strain fields near edge dislocations of the…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is ubiquitous phenomenon in nature. One of the defining features of symmetry broken phases is that the large system size limit and the vanishing external field limit do not commute. In this work, we study a…
The paper examines part of the ground state diagram of the extended Hubbard model, with the on-site attraction U<0 and intersite repulsion W>0 in the presence of charge density waves, superconducting and $\eta$-superconducting order…
The symmetry of the superconducting phase of Sr2RuO4 is identified as the odd-parity pairing state d(k)=\hat{z}(k_x \pm i k_y) based on recent experiments. The experimental evidence for the so-called orbital dependent superconductivity…
Motivated by recent experimental findings, we have developed a theory of the superconducting state for 2D metals without inversion symmetry modeling the geometry of a surface superconducting layer in a field-effect-transistor or near the…
Nematic order often breaks the tetragonal symmetry of iron-based superconductors. It arises from regular structural transition or electronic instability in the normal phase. Here, we report the observation of a nematic superconducting…
We study the symmetry-broken phases in two- and three-orbital Hubbard models with lifted orbital degeneracy using dynamical mean field theory. On the technical level, we explain how symmetry relations can be exploited to measure the…
We consider a system of spins on the sites of a three-dimensional pyrochlore lattice of corner-sharing tetrahedra interacting with a predominant effective $xy$ exchange. In particular, we investigate the selection of a long-range ordered…
Previously, it was shown that a superconducting state dominated by singlet $d_{x^2-y^2}$ intra-band pairs emerges from the fluctuation exchange approximation (FLEX) applied to a realistic model for Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, a result that is…
We investigate the possible superconducting instabilities of strongly correlated electron materials using a generalization of linear response theory to external pairing fields depending on frequency. We compute a pairing susceptibility…
