We propose a superconducting instability where microscopic supercurrent loops form spontaneously within a unit cell at the superconducting transition temperature with only uniform, onsite and intra-orbital singlet pairing. As a result of…

In radiative $\beta$ decay, $T$ violation can be studied through a spin-independent $T$-odd correlation. We consider contributions to this correlation by beyond the standard model (BSM) sources of $T$-violation, arising above the…

Recent measurements in paramagnetic molecules improved the limit on the electron electric dipole moment (EDM) by an order of magnitude. Time-reversal (T) and parity (P) symmetry violation in molecules may also come from their nuclei. We…

We study the 2D full Ginzburg-Landau energy with a periodic rapidly oscillating, discontinuous and [strongly] diluted pinning term using a perturbative argument. This energy models the state of an heterogeneous type II supercon-ductor…

We extend the superconductor's free energy to include an interaction of the order parameter with the curvature of space-time. This interaction leads to geometry dependent coherence length and Ginzburg-Landau parameter which suggests that…

We discuss the angular momentum blockade in small d-wave superconducting grains in an external field. We find that abrupt changes in angular momentum state of the condensate, angular momentum blockade, occur as a result of changes in the…

We discuss how tensor polarizations of gravitational waves can suffer Landau damping in the presence of velocity birefringence, when parity symmetry is explicitly broken. In particular, we analyze the role of the Nieh-Yan and Chern-Simons…

In type-II superconductors, the magnetic field enters in the form of vortices; their flow under application of a current introduces dissipation and thus destroys the defining property of a superconductor. Vortices get immobilized by pinning…

The coexistence of the superconductivity and magnetism in the Ho$_{1-x}$Dy$_x$Ni$_2$B$_2$C is studied by using Ginzburg-Landau theory. This alloy shows the coexistence and complex interplay of superconducting and magnetic order. We propose…

We investigate general structure of Landau free energy for stabilizing a novel superconducting state with both even-frequency and odd-frequency components in gap function. On the basis of the Luttinger-Ward functional, we elucidate an…

Using reciprocity, we investigate the breaking of time-reversal (T) symmetry due to a ferrite embedded in a flat microwave billiard. Transmission spectra of isolated single resonances are not sensitive to T-violation whereas those of pairs…

Lorentz- and CPT-violating models of electrodynamics with Chern-Simons terms are typically plagued by various sorts of instabilities. However, when the Chern-Simons term arises from a slow time variation in a pseudoscalar field with an…

Multi-component spin-singlet superconductors with competing 0- and $\pi$-pairing couplings, as in $s_{++}$ and $s_{\pm}$ phases, are close to instabilities with a spontaneous breaking of time-reversal symmetry. We demonstrate that the…

We first summarize our recent observations, through magnetization measurements in different low-Tc superconductors, of a rather sharp disappearance of the superconducting fluctuations in the normal state when the magnetic field approaches…

We estimate the conjectured interaction between the Earth gravitational field and a superconductor immersed in external, static electric and magnetic field. The latter is close to the sample upper critical field and generates the presence…

The phenomena of superconductivity and charge density waves are observed in close vicinity in many strongly correlated materials. Increasing evidence from experiments and numerical simulations suggests both phenomena can also occur in an…

We study the physical properties of an $s$-wave -- normal metal -- $d$-wave junction in terms of the Andreev bound states in the normal metal layer. The phase dependence of bound states with different orientations leads to superconducting…

We study the dynamics of vortices in d-wave superconductors using a phenomenological time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation with mixing of s- and d-wave components. We present numerical simulations under an external driving current $J$…

We study vortices in p-wave superconductors in a Ginzburg-Landau setting. The state of the superconductor is described by a pair of complex wave functions, and the p-wave symmetric energy functional couples these in both the kinetic…

We study the flux-flow Hall effect and thermomagnetic transport near the upper critical field \hctwo\ in extreme type-II superconductors starting from a suitable generalization of the time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. We explicitly…
