We study pairing correlations in ultrasmall superconductor in the nanoscopic limit by means of a toy model where electrons are confined in a single, multiply degenerate energy level. We solve the model exactly to investigate the temperature…
We investigate superconductivity in a grand canonical ensemble with {\it fixed number parity} (even or odd). In the low temperature limit we find small corrections to the BCS gap equation and energy spectrum $E(k)$. The even-odd free energy…
We investigate the breakdown of BCS superconductivity in {\em ultra}\/small metallic grains as a function of particle size (characterized by the mean spacing $d$ between discrete electronic eigenstates), and the parity ($P$ = even/odd) of…
We consider the model of superconducting pairing with the energy gap function which is odd over $k-k_{F}$.\ In this case superconductivity is possible even in the presence of an arbitrarily large point-like repulsion between electrons,\…
The canonical BCS wave function is tested for the attractive Hubbard model. Results are presented for one dimension, and are compared with the exact solutions by the Bethe ansatz and the results from the conventional grand canonical BCS…
We study the spin susceptibility chi of a small, isolated superconducting grain. Due to the interplay between parity effects and pairing correlations, the dependence of chi on temperature T is qualitatively different from the standard BCS…
All the new layer perovskite superconductors seem to show a phenomenon of symmetry mixing with repect to the order parameter. An analysis of the different alternative of mixing and how far could them be presented is carried out. For the…
Although the BCS theory of superconductivity is a well established theory, we have shown that the phenomenology predicted by this model is much richer than previously believed. By releasing the constraint that the attraction band is…
The (mean field based) BCS theory is considered one of the most successful theories in condensed matter physics. It is justified in ordinary metal superconductors the coherence length $\xi$ is large, with two important features: the order…
This article is written as a Lecture given in the 2006 Varenna Summer School on "Ultracold Fermi Gases". Here we present a review of BCS--Bose Einstein condensation (BEC) crossover theory with emphasis on finite temperature effects. We…
The superconducting pairing instability---as determined by a divergence of the two-particle susceptibility---is obtained in the mean field (BCS) approximation in the thermodynamic limit. The usual practice is to examine this property for a…
We study finite size effects in superconducting metallic grains and determine the BCS order parameter and the low energy excitation spectrum in terms of size, and shape of the grain. Our approach combines the BCS self-consistency condition,…
Theoretically, we recently showed that the scaling relation between the transition temperature T_c and the superfluid density at zero temperature n_s (0) might exhibit a parabolic pattern [Scientific Reports 6 (2016) 23863]. It is…
The Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) mean-field theory of the pairing interaction breaks down for nuclei and ultra-small metallic grains (nanoparticles). Finite-temperature pairing correlations in such finite-size systems can be calculated…
Lately, there has been much interest in high temperature superconductors, and more recently hydrogen-based superconductors. This work offers a simple model which explains the behavior of the superconducting gap based on BCS theory, and…
The BCS picture of superconductivity describes pairing between electrons originating from a single band. A generalization of this picture occurs in multi-band superconductors, where electrons from two or more bands contribute to…
The existence and the uniqueness of the solution to the BCS gap equation of superconductivity is established in previous papers, but the temperature dependence of the solution is not discussed. In this paper, in order to show how the…
We calculate corrections to the BCS gap equation caused by the interaction of electrons with the collective phase and amplitude modes in the superconducting state. This feedback reduces the BCS gap parameter, $\Delta$, and leaves the…
Exploiting the similarity between the bunched single-particle energy levels of nuclei and of random distributions around the Fermi surface, pairing properties of the latter are calculated to establish statistically-based bounds on the basic…
We investigate pseudo-gap phenomena realized in the BCS pairing model with a long but finite interaction range. We calculate the single-particle self-energy in all order exactly in the temperature range where the superconducting fluctuation…
