A simple two-band model with interband scattering of intraband pairs is applied to MgB$_2$ superconductivity. An adjustable parameters set is chosen. The calculated $T_c$ vs doping, isotope exponent and the heat capacity jump are in…
Isotope effects in a multiband superconductor with a leading interband pairing channel are investigated. A relatively small electron-phonon contribution into the pair-transfer interaction can cause effects of observed magnitude. A multiband…
The BCS electron-phonon mechanism and the unconventional 'hole mechanism' have been proposed as explanations for the high temperature superconductivity observed in $MgB_2$. It is proposed that a critical test of which theory is correct is…
We investigate the influence of electron-phonon coupling on the superexchange interaction of magnetic insulators. Both the Holstein-Hubbard model where the phonons couple to the electron density, as well as an extended Su, Schrieffer,…
State-of-the-art model Hamiltonians, like Fr\"ohlich's, or density functional theory approaches to electron-phonon interaction suffer from a severe overscreening error. This is due to the incorrect treatment of the screening of the ionic…

Effect of tetragonal distortion on the electronic structure, dynamical properties and superconductivity in Mo$_3$Sb$_7$ is analyzed using first principles electronic structure and phonon calculations. Rigid muffin tin approximation (RMTA)…
Li2Pd3B is known to be superconducting, while the isotypical Li2Pt3B compound is not. Electronic structures of Li2Pd3B and Li2Pt3B have been calculated in order to obtain an insight into this surprising difference, through an analysis of…
The phonon density-of-states of transition metal diborides TMB2 with TM = Ti, V, Ta, Nb and Y has been measured using the technique of inelastic neutron scattering. The experimental data are compared with ab initio density functional…
We have studied the changes in the electronic structure and the superconducting transition temperature T_c of Mg(B_{1-x}C_{x})_{2} alloys as a function of x with 0\leq x\leq 0.3. Our density-functional-based approach uses coherent-potential…
In the present work we calculate the tunneling density of states (DOS) of MgB% $_{2}$ for different tunneling directions by directly solving the two-band Eliashberg equations (EE) in the real-axis formulation. This procedure reveals the…
Pseudogap phase in superconductors continues to be an outstanding puzzle that differentiates unconventional superconductors from the conventional ones (BCS-superconductors). Employing high resolution photoemission spectroscopy on a highly…

The physics of ferromagnetic doped manganites, such as \chem{La_{1-x}Ca_xMnO_3} with $x\approx0.2$--0.4, is reviewed. The concept of double exchange is discussed within the general framework of itinerant electron magnetism. The new feature…
An overview on recent efforts in point-contact (PC) spectroscopy of title superconductors is given. Distinct phonon features and crystalline-electric-field effects are observed in PC spectra of HoNi2B2C. Results of study of superconducting…
Density functional calculations are used to investigate the effects of partial substitutional alloying of the B site in MgB2 with C and Be alone and combined with alloying of the Mg site with Cu. The effect of such substitutions on the…
I present the results of first principles calculations of the phonon dispersions and electron-phonon coupling for BaTi$_2$Sb$_2$O. The phonon dispersions show a weak lattice instability near the zone corners that leads to a charge-density…
The electronic structure, stability, electron phonon coupling and superconductivity of the non-oxide perovskite MgCNi$_3$ are studied using density functional calculations. The band structure is dominated by a Ni $d$ derived density of…
