Isothermal magnetization curves are plotted as the magnetization times the magnetic induction, $4 \pi M \cdot B$, versus the applied field, H. We show here that this new curve is the average kinetic energy of the superconducting state…
In a class of two-component Ginzburg-Landau models (TCGL) with a U(1)$\times$U(1) symmetric potential, vortices with a condensate at their core may have significantly lower energies than the Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen (ANO) ones. On the…
The new approach to the microscopic description of the phase transitions starting from the only first principles was developed on an example of the transition normal metal-superconductor. This means mathematically, that the free energy is…
The melting of the Abrikosov vortex lattice in a 2D type-II superconductor at high magnetic fields is studied analytically within the framework of the phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory. It is shown that local phase fluctuations in the…
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…
We consider extreme type-II superconductors modeled by the Ginzburg--Landau energy with a pinning term $a_\varepsilon(x)$, which we assume to be a bounded measurable function such that $b\leq a_\varepsilon(x)\leq 1$ for some constant $b>0$.…
The flux line lattice melting transition in two-dimensional pure and disordered superconductors is studied by a Monte Carlo simulation using the lowest Landau level approximation and quasi-periodic boundary condition on a plane. The…
The vortex-lattice melting line in three-dimensional type-II superconductors with pinning is derived by equating the free energies of the vortex system in the solid and liquid phases. We account for the elastic and pinning energies and the…
We report on simulations of layered superconductors using the Lawrence-Doniach model in the framework of the lowest Landau level approximation. We find a first order phase transition with a $B(T)$ dependence which agrees very well with the…
We develop an alternative method to solve the Eilenberger equations numerically for the vortex-lattice states of type-II superconductors. Using it, we clarify the magnetic-field and impurity-concentration dependences of the magnetization,…
Using approximate analytical and new numerical solutions of the conventional Ginzburg-Landau equations we calculate the small angle neutron scattering cross-section and the variance of the field distribution as measured by muon-spin…
A clear signature of Zeeman split states crossing is observed in Landau fan diagram of strained germanium two-dimensional hole gas. The underlying mechanisms are discussed based on a perturbative model yielding a closed formula for the…
The time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau approach is used to investigate nonlinear response of a strongly type-II superconductor. The dissipation takes a form of the flux flow which is quantitatively studied beyond linear response. Thermal…
Magneto-optical observations of a second flux front, which occurs at the second peak in the magnetization of Bi_2 Sr_2 CaCu_2 O_x single crystals related to the known first order ``vortex-lattice melting'', are reconsidered. We show that,…
We present a Ginzburg-Landau formulation of the bosonic resonating valence bond (RVB) theory of superconductivity. The superconducting order parameter is characterized by phase vortices that describe spinon excitations and the transition to…
In recent experiments with a superconducting nanosized Pb bridge formed between a scanning tunneling microscope tip and a substrate, superconductivity has been detected at magnetic fields, which are few times larger than the third (surface)…
Monte Carlo simulations of the uniformly frustrated 3d XY model are used to model vortex line fluctuations in high temperature superconductors in an applied magnetic field. We find two distinct phase transitions. At a lower T_{c\perp}, the…
We study the Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity in three dimensions and for strong external magnetic fields. For magnetic field strengths above the phenomenologically defined second critical field it is known from Physics that…
Within Ginzburg-Landau theory, we study the structure of a magnetic vortex in color-flavor locked quark matter. This vortex is characterized by winding of the SU(3) phase in color-flavor space, as well as by the presence of a color-flavor…
The entropic corrections to the flux-line energy of extreme type-II superconductors are computed using a schematic dual Villain model description of the flux quanta. We find that the temperature profile of the lower-critical field vanishes…
