The helicity modulus for a fluctuating type II superconductor is computed within the elastic medium approximation, as a probe of superconducting phase coherence and the Meissner effect in the mixed state. We argue that at the vortex line…
We develop the helicity modulus as a criterion for superconducting order in the mixed phase of a fluctuating type II superconductor. We show that there is a duality relation between this helicity modulus and the superfluid density of a…
We carry out simulations of the anisotropic uniformly frustrated 3D XY model, as a model for vortex line fluctuations in high Tc superconductors. We compute the phase diagram as a function of temperature and anisotropy, for a fixed applied…
We use the three dimensional uniformly frustrated XY model, as a model for a high temperature superconductor in an applied magnetic field, to explicitly measure the longitudinal correlation length xi_z in the vortex line liquid phase. We…
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 vortex-line lattice and liquid phases of a clean type-II superconductor by means of Monte Carlo simulations of the lattice London model. Motivated by a recent controversy regarding the presence, within this model, of a…
We carry out Monte Carlo simulations of the uniformly frustrated 3d XY model as a model for vortex line fluctuations in a high Tc superconductor. A density of vortex lines of f=1/25 is considered. We find two sharp phase transitions. The…
We present a Monte Carlo study of the helicity moduli of an anisotropic classical three-dimensional (3D) XY-model of YBCO in superconducting state. It is found that both the ab-plane and the c-axis helicity moduli, which are proportional to…
We set up a melting model for vortex lattices in high-temperature superconductors based on the continuum elasticity theory. The model is Gaussian and includes defect fluctuations by means of a discrete-valued vortex gauge field. We derive…
We consider the vortex matter in a three-dimensional two-component superconductor with individually conserved condensates with different bare phase stiffnesses in a finite magnetic field, such as the projected superconducting state of…
The structure function of the vortex lattice of layered superconductor is calculated to one-loop order. Based on a phenomenological melting criterion concerning the Debye-Waller factor, we calculate the melting line of the vortex lattice,…
It has been shown that superconducting vortices with antiferromagnetic cores arise within Zhang's SO(5) model of high temperature supercondictivity. Similar phenomena where the symmetry is not restored in the core of the vortex was…
Abrikosov vortices, where the superconducting gap is completely suppressed in the core, are dissipative, semi-classical entities that impact applications from high-current-density wires to superconducting quantum devices. In contrast, we…
A phase transition within the molten phase of the Abrikosov vortex system without disorder in extreme type-II superconductors is found via large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations. It involves breaking a U(1)-symmetry, and has a zero-field…
The vortex system in a high-T_c superconductor has been studied numerically using the mapping to 2D bosons and the path-integral Monte Carlo method. We find a single first-order transition from an Abrikosov lattice to an entangled vortex…
The statistical mechanics of the flux-line lattice in extreme type-II super- conductors is studied within the framework of the uniformly frustrated anisotropic 3D XY-model. A finite-field counterpart of an Onsager vortex-loop transition in…
We use Monte Carlo simulations of the 3D uniformly frustrated XY model, with uncorrelated quenched randomness in the in-plane couplings, to model the effect of random point pins on the vortex line phases of a type II superconductor. We map…
Monte Carlo simulations of 2D vortex lattice melting in a thin superconducting film (or alternatively an array of Josephson junctions) are performed in the London limit. Finite size scaling analyses are used to make a detailed test of the…
Using large scale Monte Carlo simulations on a uniformly frustrated 3DXY model, we report a first order vortex lattice melting transition in clean, isotropic extreme type-II $\kappa \to \infty$ superconductors. This work clarifies an…
We study the interplay between a novel vortex-loop unbinding in finite magnetic field at T=T_V and flux-line lattice (FLL) melting at T=T_M in type-II superconductors. The FLL melts due to nucleation of vortex loops parallel to c-axis,…
