Normal-conducting mesoscopic systems in contact with a superconductor are classified by the symmetry operations of time reversal and rotation of the electron's spin. Four symmetry classes are identified, which correspond to Cartan's…

Early studies proposed a connection between cuprate superconductivity and fractionalized spin liquid states. But the low temperature phase diagram is dominated by states without fractionalization, with a competition between…

Superconductivity is characterized by vanishing electrical resistance and magnetic flux expulsion. For conventional type II superconductors, the magnetic flux expulsion is incomplete in an applied magnetic field above a critical value and…

Realistic selfconsistent calculations of unconventional superconductivity in a heavy-fermion material are reported. Our calculations for UPd$_2$Al$_3$ start from accurate energy band dispersions that are computed within the local…

Properties of layered superconductors can vary drastically when thinned down from bulk to monolayer, owing to the reduced dimensionality and weakened interlayer coupling. In transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), the inherent symmetry…

Supersonic flows for the two-dimensional (2D) steady full Euler system are studied. We construct a global non-isentropic rotational supersonic flow in a semi-infinite divergent duct. The flow satisfies the slip condition on the walls of the…

It is well-known that gauging a finite 0-form symmetry in a quantum field theory leads to a dual symmetry generated by topological Wilson line defects. These are described by the representations of the 0-form symmetry group which form a…

Scale invariance and self-similarity in physics provide a unified framework to classify phases of matter and dynamical properties near equilibrium in both classical and quantum systems. This paradigm has been further extended to isolated…

Spin liquids represent exotic types of quantum matter that evade conventional symmetry-breaking order even at zero temperature. Exhaustive classifications of spin liquids have been carried out in several systems, particularly in the…

We find evidence that for zero spin density $m=0$, intermediate $U/4t$ values, and a range $x\in (x_c,x_*)$ of finite hole concentrations the ground state of the virtual-electron pair quantum liquid obtained from perturbing the…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking of a U(1) symmetry in interacting systems leads to superfluidity of a corresponding conserved charge. We generalize the superfluidity to systems with U(1) symmetries acting on both matter fields and 2D spatial…

We compute the universal conductivity of the (2+1)-dimensional XY universality class, which is realized for a superfluid-to-Mott insulator quantum phase transition at constant density. Based on large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of the…

We show that a simple gravitational theory can provide a holographically dual description of a superconductor. There is a critical temperature, below which a charged condensate forms via a second order phase transition and the (DC)…

Resistance in standard conductors decreases with increasing cross-section. Yet, in low-dimensional superconductors and superfluids residual resistance arises from topological fluctuations of the order parameter manifesting as phase slips in…

The unbinding of vortex defects in the superconducting condensate with d-wave symmetry at T=0 is shown to lead to the insulator with incommensurate spin-density-wave order. The transition is similar to the spontaneous generation of the…

We apply a wilsonian renormalization group approach to the system of electrons in a two-dimensional square lattice interacting near the saddle-points of the band, when the correlations at momentum ${\bf Q} = (\pi, \pi)$ prevail in the…

We consider the field theory that defines a perfect incompressible 2D fluid. One distinctive property of this system is that the quadratic action for fluctuations around the ground state features neither mass nor gradient term. Quantum…

Observations of macroscopic quantum coherence in driven systems, e.g. polariton condensates, have strongly stimulated experimental as well as theoretical efforts during the last decade. We address the question of whether a driven quantum…

Superconducting vortices can reveal electron pairing details and nucleate topologically protected states. Yet, vortices of bulk spin-triplet superconductors have never been visualized. Recently, UTe$_2$ has emerged as a nominative…

In this paper, we discuss physical consequences of pseudospin SU(2) symmetry breaking in the negative-U Hubbard model at half-filling. If pseudospin symmetry is spontaneously broken while its unique subgroup U(1) remains invariant, it will…
