Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in two dimensions (2D) (e.g., to describe the quasi-2D cuprates) is suggested as the possible mechanism widely believed to underlie superconductivity in general. A crucial role is played by nonzero…
We describe high-Tc superconductivity in layered materials within a BCS theory as a BEC of massless-like Cooper pairons satisfying a linear dispersion relation, and propagating within quasi-2D layers of finite width defined by the charge…
Overdoped high-temperature cuprate superconductors have been widely believed to be described by the physics of d-wave BCS-like superconductivity. However, recent measurements indicate that as the doping is increased, the superfluid density…
We outline a microscopic approach to the superconducting fluctuations and pairing correlations in the attractive Hubbard model above Tc, using the functional integral method. A crossover from BCS superconductivity to Bose condensation of…
One of the most remarkable properties of the high-temperature superconductors is a pseudogap regime appearing in the underdoped cuprates above the superconducting transition temperature T_c. The pseudogap continously develops out of the…
Though commonly unrecognized, a superconducting BCS condensate consists of equal numbers of two-electron (2e) and two-hole (2h) Cooper pairs (CPs). A complete (in the sense that 2h-CPs are not ignored) boson-fermion statistical model,…
One of the first finding concerning the superconducting (SC) density $n_{\rm sc}$ in cuprates was their small magnitudes that revealed the importance of phase fluctuations. More recently, measurements in a variety of overdoped cuprates…
This article gives a contemporary and to some extent pedagogical review of the current theoretical understanding of the formation of the superconducting state in metallic systems with a variable density of carriers. We make an attempt to…
It is well-known that the appearance of almost-empty (shallow) conduction bands in solids strongly affects their superconducting properties. In a shallow band charge carriers are depleted and have nearly zero velocities so that the…
In the underdoped, overdoped, Zn-doped or stripe-forming regions of high-$T_{c}$ cuprate superconductors (HTSC), the superfluid density $n_{s}/m^{*}$ at $T\to 0$ shows universal correlations with $T_{c}$. Similar strong correlations exist…
A number of observations point to the possibility that high-Tc cuprate superconductors may not be conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconductors, but rather derive from the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of real-space pairs,…
We investigate the behavior of the superconducting transition temperature within a previously developed BCS-Bose Einstein crossover picture. This picture, based on a decoupling scheme of Kadanoff and Martin, further extended by Patton, can…
In this paper we present predictions for thermodynamic and transport properties of a BCS Bose-Einstein crossover theory, below Tc, which theory satisfies the reasonable constraints that it yield (i) the Leggett ground state and (ii) BCS…
The superconducting transition in High Temperature Superconductors(HTS) has not been understood. Traditional Bose Einstein Condensation(BEC) theory provides Tc estimates that are many times higher than the experimental values. The proposed…
We present a theoretical model for a transversally driven Bose-Einstein condensate coupled to an optical cavity. We focus on the interplay between different coherent couplings, which can trigger a structural phase transition, known as the…
In this paper we demonstrate how, using a natural generalization of BCS theory, superconducting phase coherence manifests itself in phase insensitive measurements, when there is a smooth evolution of the excitation gap \Delta from above to…
We consider the Eliashberg theory in the coupling region where some fundamental qualitative deviations from the conventional BCS-like behaviour begin to appear. These deviations are identified as the onset of a cross-over from BCS…
There are two seemingly unrelated puzzles about the cuprate superconductors. The first puzzle concerns the strong non-BCS behavior around $x_{c}$, the end point of the superconducting dome on the overdoped side, where the cuparte is…
The finite-frequency optical properties of the underdoped cuprates, in both the normal and superconducting state, display features which go beyond a Fermi liquid and a BCS description. We provide an understanding of these properties within…
Studying the disappearance of superconductivity at the end of the overdoped region of the cuprate phase diagram offers a different approach for investigating the interaction which is responsible for pairing in these materials. In the…
