We investigate the quantum phase transitions of a disordered nanowire from superconducting to metallic behavior by employing extensive Monte Carlo simulations. To this end, we map the quantum action onto a (1+1)-dimensional classical XY…
It is argued that close to a Coulomb interacting quantum critical point, the interaction between two vortices in a disordered superconducting thin film separated by a distance $r$ changes from logarithmic in the mean-field region to $1/r$…
Strongly disordered superconducting films have been observed to undergo finite temperature transitions to a superinsulating state, of apparently infinite resistance, mirroring superconductivity. Approaching the transition, some of the films…
Motivated by a recent argument that the superconducting (SC) transition field of three-dimensional (3D) disordered superconductors with granular structure in a nonzero magnetic field should lie above $H_{c2}(0)$ in low $T$ limit, the glass…
The three-dimensional strongly screened vortex-glass model is studied numerically using methods from combinatorial optimization. We focus on the effect of disorder strength on the ground state and found the existence of a disorder-driven…
Many disordered superconducting films exhibit smeared tunneling spectra with evident in-gap states. We demonstrated that the tunneling density of states in ultrathin MoC films is gapless and can be described by the Dynes version of the BCS…
Magnetoconductivity of the disordered two- and three-dimensional superconductors is addressed at the onset of superconducting transition. In this regime transport is dominated by the fluctuation effects and we account for the interaction…
We study a flux lattice which is parallel to superconducting layers, allowing for dislocations and for disorder of both short wavelength and long wavelength. We find that the long wavelength disorder has a significant effect on the phase…
The suppression of superconductivity in disordered systems is a fundamental problem of condensed matter physics. Here we investigate the superconducting niobium-titanium-nitride (Nb_{1-x}Ti_{x}N) thin films grown by atomic layer deposition…
The effect of fluctuation induced weakly first order phase transition known for three dimensional (3D) type I superconductors appears in a modified and strongly enhanced variant in thin (quasi-2D) superconducting films. The unusual…
A quantum particle cannot in general diffuse through a disordered medium because of its wavelike nature, but interacting particles can escape localization by collectively percolating through the system. For bosonic particles this phenomenon…
We consider the influence of quenched spatial disorder on phase transitions in classical and quantum systems. We show that rare strong disorder fluctuations can have dramatic effects on critical points. In classical systems with…
Thermodynamic and transport properties of normal disordered conductors are strongly influenced by the proximity of a superconductor. A cooperation between mesoscopic coherence and Andreev scattering of particles from the superconductor…
Properties of disordered thin films are discussed based on the viewpoint that superconducting islands are formed in the system. These lead to superconducting correlations confined in space, which are known to form spontaneously in thin…
We study theoretically orbital effects of a parallel magnetic field applied to a disordered superconducting film. We find that the field reduces the phase stiffness and leads to strong quantum phase fluctuations driving the system into an…
We study the effects of quantum fluctuations on the transport properties of multiband superconductors near a pair-breaking quantum critical point. For this purpose, we consider a minimal model of the quantum phase transition in a system…
We analyze effects of a random magnetic potential in a microfabricated waveguide for ultra-cold atoms. We find that the shape and position fluctuations of a current carrying wire induce strongly disordered potential that is quasiperiodic…
The quantum ferromagnetic transition at zero temperature in disordered itinerant electron systems is considered. Nonmagnetic quenched disorder leads to diffusive electron dynamics that induces an effective long-range interaction between the…
We discuss the instability of uniform superconducting states that contain the pairing correlations belonging to the odd-frequency symmetry class. The instability originates from the paramagnetic response of odd-frequency Cooper pairs and is…
In one-dimension, quantum fluctuations prevent the appearance of long-range order in a supersolid, and only quasi long-range order can survive. We derive this quantum critical behavior and study its influence on the superfluid response and…
