A type-II superconductor survives in an external magnetic field by admitting an Abrikosov lattice of quantized vortices. This is an imprint of the Aharonov-Bohm effect created by the Abelian U(1) gauge field. The simplest non-Abelian…
We show how the Aharonov-Bohm flux (AB) $\phi_i$ and the dual gaps $(\Delta_1, \Delta_2)$ can affect the electron scattering in graphene quantum dots (GQDs) of radius $r_0$ in the presence of an electrostatic potential $V$. After obtaining…
Superconductivity remains one of most fascinating quantum phenomena existing on a macroscopic scale. Its rich phenomenology is usually described by the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory in terms of the order parameter, representing the…
We study the nonlinear Hall effect in superconductors without magnetic fields induced by a quantum geometric phase (i.e., the Aharonov-Bohm phase) carried by single or pair particles. We find that the second-order nonlinear Hall…
We establish a non-Abelian superconductivity and a non-Abelian Meissner effect by constructing an effective field theory of superconductivity in which a genuine SU(2) gauge symmetry governs the dynamics. We show that the magnetic flux is…
Within the non-linear Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory, we investigate the vortex structure in a superconducting thin film with a ferromagnetic disk on top of it. Antivortices are stabilized in shells around a central core of vortices (or a…
We study the magnetic response of holographic superconductors exhibiting an insulating "normal" phase. These materials can be realized as a CFT compactified on a circle, which is dual to the AdS Soliton geometry. We study the response under…
Quantization of superflow-circulation and of magnetic-flux are considered for systems, such as superfluid $^3$He-A and unconventional superconductors, having nonscalar order parameters. The circulation is shown to be the anholonomy in the…
It is shown that there are three kinds of vortices in a superconductor; a vortex with the fluxoid quantum 1 (VF), a new vortex with 0 (VZF), and a vortex with -1 (VAF), respectively. The Hall field via three vortices is studied and found to…
Breaking of time-reversal and point-group spatial symmetries can have a profound impact on superconductivity. One of the most extraordinary effects, due to the application of a magnetic field, is represented by the Abrikosov vortices with…
Experimental study of quantum Hall corrals reveals Aharonov-Bohm-Like (ABL) oscillations. Unlike the Aharonov-Bohm effect which has a period of one flux quantum, $\Phi_{0}$, the ABL oscillations possess a flux period of $\Phi_{0}/f$, where…
We derive Ginzburg-Landau-like action for two-dimensional disordered superconductor under far-from-equilibrium conditions in a fluctuational regime. Then, utilizing it, we calculate fluctuation induced density of states, Maki-Thomson and…
We study the non-Abelian topological vortices in condensed matter physics, whose topological flux quantum number is described by $\pi_2(S^2)$, not by $\pi_1(S^1)$. We present two examples, a magnetic vortex in two-gap superconductor and a…
We show that the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator can be used to construct a solid state Stern-Gerlach spin-splitter. By threading such a Stern-Gerlach apparatus with a magnetic flux, Ahranov-Bohm like interference effects…
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…
We study the problem of flux penetration into type--I superconductors with high demagnetization factor (slab geometry).Assuming that the interface between the normal and superconducting regions is sharp, that flux diffuses rapidly in the…
Since the Aharonov-Bohm effect is the purely quantum effect that has no analogues in classical physics, its persistence in the quasiclassical limit seems to be hardly possible. Nevertheless, we show that the scattering Aharonov-Bohm effect…
Phase winding effects in hollow semiconductor nanowires with superconducting shells have been proposed as a route to engineer topological superconducting states. We investigate GaAs/InAs core/shell nanowires with half-shells of epitaxial…
We discuss vortices allowed in two-gap superconductors, bilayer systems and in equivalent extended Faddeev model. We show that in these systems there exist vortices which carry an arbitrary fraction of magnetic flux quantum. Besides that we…
Ginzburg-Landau (GL) equations and GL free energy for flux phase and superconductivity are derived microscopically from the $t-J$ model on a square lattice. Order parameter (OP) for the flux phase has direct coupling to a magnetic field, in…
