By using mutual flux-attaching singular gauge transformations, we derive an effective action describing the zero temperature quantum phase transition from d-wave superconductor to underdoped regime. In this effective action, quantum…
We present finite temperature extension of the QED$_3$ theory of underdoped cuprates. The theory describes nodal quasiparticles whose interactions with quantum proliferated vortex-antivortex pairs are represented by an emergent U(1) gauge…
We study the nature of the zero-temperature phase transition between a d-wave superconductor and a Mott insulator in two dimensions. In this ``quantum confinement transition'', spin and charge are confined to form the electron in the Mott…
We report an experimental study of quench dynamics across the superfluid transition temperature $T_c$ in a strongly interacting Fermi gas by ramping down the trapping potential. The nonzero quasi-condensate number $N_0$ at temperature…
We develop a self-consistent microscopic framework beyond mean-field theory for monolayer cuprate superconductivity. It couples fermionic quasiparticles with collective phase dynamics to treat the gap and superfluid stiffness. The phase…
In this letter we show that the zero-point motion of the vortex in superconducting doped topological insulators leads to significant changes in the electronic spectrum at the topological phase transition in this system. This topological…
We present a microscopic open quantum systems theory of thermally-damped vortex motion in oblate atomic superfluids that includes previously neglected energy-damping interactions between superfluid and thermal atoms. This mechanism couples…
Very recently quasi two-dimensional (2D) systems made of attractive fermionic alkali-metal atoms with a widely tunable interaction due to Fano-Feshbach resonances have been realized. In this way it has been achieved the 2D crossover from…
Low-energy theory of d-wave quasiparticles coupled to fluctuating vortex loops that describes the loss of phase coherence in a two dimensional d-wave superconductor at T=0 is derived. The theory has the form of 2+1 dimensional quantum…
We study the effect of gapless quasiparticles in a d-wave superconductor on the T=0 end point of the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition line in underdoped high-temperature superconductors. Starting from a lattice model that has gapless fermions…
We give a general introduction to quantum phase transitions in strongly-correlated electron systems. These transitions which occur at zero temperature when a non-thermal parameter $g$ like pressure, chemical composition or magnetic field is…
A microscopic analysis of the superconducting quantum critical point realized via a pair-breaking quantum phase transition is presented. Finite temperature crossovers are derived for the electrical conductivity, which is a key probe of…
The Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson hamiltonian is studied for different values of the parameter $\lambda$ which multiplies the quartic term (it turns out that this is equivalent to consider different values of the coherence length $\xi$ in units of…
In the last few years a lot of exotic and anomalous topological phases were constructed by proliferating the vortex like topological defects on the surface of the $3d$ topological insulator (TI). In this work, rather than considering…
We consider two-dimensional ($d=2$) systems with short-ranged microscopic interactions, where interface unbinding (wetting) transitions occur in the limit of vanishing temperature $T$. For $T=0$ the transition is characterized by…
A theory of Kondo lattices is developed for the t-J model on a square lattice. The spin susceptibility is described in a form consistent with a physical picture of Kondo lattices: Local spin fluctuations at different sites interact with…
The dynamics of magnetic vortices in the mixed state of d-wave superconductors is affected by interaction with quasiparticles near the gap nodes. We study this effect by computing the overlap of the ground state wave functions of the nodal…
We describe the influence of the gapless, nodal, fermionic quasiparticles of a two-dimensional d-wave superconductor on the motion of vortices. A continuum, functional formalism is used to obtain the effective vortex action, after the…
We explore the topological transformation of quasi-2D Bose-Einstein condensates of dilute atomic gases, and changes in the low-energy quasiparticles associated with the geometry of the confining potential. In particular, we show the density…
Theoretical attempts to explain the origin of high temperature superconductivity are challenged by the complexity of the normal state, which exhibits three regimes with increasing hole doping: a pseudo-gap regime when underdoped, strange…
