Complex phase diagrams are generic feature of quantum materials that display high temperature superconductivity. In addition to d-wave superconductivity (or other unconventional states), these phase diagrams typically include various forms…
Developing a theoretical framework for conducting electronic fluids qualitatively distinct from those described by Landau's Fermi-liquid theory is of central importance to many outstanding problems in condensed matter physics. One such…
We derive the theory of the quantum (zero temperature) superconductor to metal transition in disordered materials when the resistance of the normal metal near criticality is small compared to the quantum of resistivity. This can occur most…
Upon application of an external tuning parameter, a magnetic state can be driven to a normal metal state at zero temperature. This phenomenon is known as quantum criticality and leads to fascinating responses in thermodynamics and transport…
We investigate the vortex structure assuming the d-density wave scenario of the pseudogap. We discuss the profiles of the order parameters in the vicinity of the vortex, effective vortex charge and the local density of states. We find a…
We analyze the anomalies of superconducting state (s and d-wave pairing) in a simple model of pseudogap state, induced by fluctuations of short - range order (e.g. antiferromagnetic), based on the model Fermi surface with "hot patches". We…
An interaction between electrons and lattice vibrations (phonons) results in two fundamental quantum phenomena in solids: in three dimensions it can turn a metal into a superconductor whereas in one dimension it can turn a metal into an…
One of the hallmarks of high-temperature superconductors is a pseudogap regime appearing in the underdoped cuprates above the superconducting transition temperature Tc. The pseudogap continously develops out of the superconducting gap. In…
In contrast to conventional s-wave superconductivity, unconventional (e.g. p or d-wave) superconductivity is strongly suppressed even by relatively weak disorder. Upon approaching the superconductor-metal transition, the order parameter…
We study the effect of finite chemical potential on the d-density wave state that has been proposed to explain the pseudogap phenomena in underdoped cuprates. We find that the specific heat anomaly at the transition temperature, below which…
Understanding the roles of disorder and superconducting phase fluctuation in superconductivity has been a long-standing challenge. For example, while the phase fluctuation is expected to destroy the superconductivity of intrinsically…
The mechanism of high temperature superconductivity is not resolved for so long because the normal state of cuprates is not yet understood. Here we show that the normal state pseudo-gap exhibits an unexpected non-monotonic temperature…
The physics of low-energy quasi-particle excitations in disordered d-wave superconductors is a subject of ongoing intensive research. Over the last decade, a variety of conceptually and methodologically different approaches to the problem…
The presence of nonmagnetic impurities in a 2D ``bad metal'' depresses the superconducting Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition temperature, while leaving the pairing energy scale unchanged. Thus the region of the pseudogap…
On the basis of an electronic model with separable attractive interaction, the precursors at high temperature and strong coupling of the d-wave superconducting state are investigated in the one-particle spectral function $A({\bf k},\omega)$…
The simplest quantum generalization of the six-vertex model describes fluctuations of the order parameter of the d-density wave (DDW), believed to compete with superconductivity in the high-Tc superconductors. The ground state of this model…
We examine the effects of a phenomenological pseudogap on the T=0 K phase diagram of a high temperature superconductor within a self-consistent model which exhibits a d-wave pairing symmetry. At the mean-field level the presence of a…
We study the diamagnetism of the 6-vertex model with the arrows as directed bond currents. To our knowledge, this is the first study of the diamagnetism of this model. A special version of this model, called F model, describes the thermal…
A model with d-wave pairing symmetry is studied by employing a non-perturbative sum rule approach. At low temperature the magnitude of a normal state pseudogap shows strong $\vec{k}$ or angle dependence well fitted by $\cos 2\phi$ form.…
The pseudogap refers to an enigmatic state of matter with unusual physical properties found below a characteristic temperature $T^*$ in hole-doped high-temperature superconductors. Determining $T^*$ is critical for understanding this state.…
