We use the Ginzburg-Landau theory near the transition temperature in order to examine the behavior of an inhomogeneous superconductor in the presence of a magnetic field. We find that a transition from type I to type II superconductivity…
We review recent work on a continuum, classical theory of thermal fluctuations in two dimensional superconductors. A functional integral over a Ginzburg-Landau free energy describes the amplitude and phase fluctuations responsible for the…
Thermodynamics of type II superconductors in electromagnetic field based on the Ginzburg - Landau theory is presented. The Abrikosov flux lattice solution is derived using an expansion in a parameter characterizing the "distance" to the…
The Ginzburg-Landau-Wilson theory that describes the disordered Fermi liquid - d-wave superconductor phase transition at zero temperature is derived at weak coupling. The theory represents an interacting dissipative system of bosonic Cooper…
We investigate the influence of order parameter fluctuations on the transition between normal and mixed superconducting states at low temperatures. We show that in case of clean quasi-two-dimensional superconductors the transition can be…
A systematic treatment of the magnetic fluctuations effect on the properties of the normal-to-superconducting phase transition in a zero external magnetic field is given within the self-consistent approximation and the quasi-macroscopic…
The dual approach to the Ginzburg-Landau theory of a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer superconductor is reviewed. The dual theory describes a grand canonical ensemble of fluctuating closed magnetic vortices, of arbitrary length and shape, which…
A theory of critical fluctuations in extreme type-II superconductors subjected to a finite but weak external magnetic field is presented. It is shown that the standard Ginzburg-Landau representation of this problem can be recast, with help…
The phase transition of the electroweak vacuum induced by a strong magnetic field is examined, and a connection is made with the Ginzburg-Landau theory of type-II superconductivity. For solutions of the exact nonlinear field equations of…
A new description is proposed for the low-field critical behavior of type-II superconductors. The starting point is the Ginzburg-Landau theory in presence of an external magnetic field H. A set of fictitious vortex variables and a singular…
We develop a theory for the vortex unbinding transition in homogeneously disordered superconducting films. This theory incorporates the effects of quantum, mesoscopic and thermal fluctuations stemming from length scales ranging from the…
Fluctuation behavior of high temperature superconductors in high magnetic field is studied within the Ginzburg-Landau theory. Landau level degeneracy of Cooper pairs enhances fluctuations which destroy the familiar Abrikosov vortex lattice…
Recent advances in cooling techniques make now possible the experimental study of quantum phase transitions, which are transitions near absolute zero temperature accessed by varying a control parameter. A paradigmatic example is the…
A Ginzburg-Landau approach to fluctuations of a layered superconductor in a magnetic field is used to show that the interlayer coupling can be incorporated within an interacting self-consistent theory of a single layer, in the limit of a…
In these lectures, superconductivity in impure thin films close to the absolute zero of temperature is discussed. The behavior as function of the applied magnetic field and the amount of impurities suggests the presence of a…
We study the gauge field fluctuations in dense quark matter and determine the temperature of the induced first-order phase transition to the color-superconducting phase in weak coupling. We find that the local approximation of the coupling…
By using a Ginzburg-Landau functional in the Gaussian approximation, we calculate the energy of superconducting fluctuations above the transition, at zero external magnetic field, of a system composed by a small number $N$ of parallel…
The new approach to the microscopic description of the phase transitions starting from the only first principles was developed on an example of the transition normal metal-superconductor. This means mathematically, that the free energy is…
The concept of the transition of type II superconductor into the Abrikosov state as the appearance of long-range phase coherence is considered. It is shown that this transition should be first order in ideal (without disorder)…
Novel vortex phase and nature of double transition field are investigated by two-component Ginzburg-Landau theory in a situation where fourfold-twofold symmetric superconducting double transition occurs. The deformation from 60 degree…
