Strong parity mixing in the FFLO superconductivity in systems with coexisting spin and charge fluctuations
We study the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state of spin
fluctuation mediated pairing, and focus on the effect of coexisting charge
fluctuations. We find that (i) consecutive transitions from singlet pairing to
FFLO and further to triplet pairing can generally take place upon
increasing the magnetic field when strong charge fluctuations coexist with spin
fluctuations, and (ii) the enhancement of the charge fluctuations lead to a
significant increase of the parity mixing in the FFLO state, where the
triplet/singlet component ratio in the gap function can be close to unity.
We propose that such consecutive pairing state transition and strong parity
mixing in the FFLO state may take place in a quasi-one-dimensional organic
superconductor (TMTSF).Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures. To be published in Phys. Rev. Let
Dynamical Generation of Non-Abelian Gauge Group via the Improved Perturbation Theory
It was suggested that the massive Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons matrix model has
three phases and that in one of them a non-Abelian gauge symmetry is
dynamically generated. The analysis was at the one-loop level around a
classical solution of fuzzy sphere type. We obtain evidences that three phases
are indeed realized as nonperturbative vacua by using the improved perturbation
theory. It also gives a good example that even if we start from a trivial
vacuum, the improved perturbation theory around it enables us to observe
nontrivial vacua.Comment: 31 pages, published versio
Large- meson theory
We derive an effective Lagrangian for meson fields. This is done in the light-cone gauge for two-dimensional large-N_c QCD by using the bilocal auxiliary field method. The auxiliary fields are bilocal on light-cone space and their Fourier transformation determines the parton momentum distribution. As the first test of our method, the 't Hooft equation is derived from the effective Lagrangian
Proton NMR Chemical Shift Behavior of Hydrogen-Bonded Amide Proton of Glycine-Containing Peptides and Polypeptides as Studied by ab initio MO Calculation
Abstract: NMR chemical shifts of the amide proton of a supermolecule, an Nmethylacetamide hydrogen-bonded with a formamide, were calculated as functions of hydrogen-bond length RN…O and hydrogen-bond angles by FPT-GIAO method within the framework of HF/STO 6-31++G(d,p) ab initio MO method. The calculations explained reasonably the experimental data reported previously that the isotropic proton chemical shifts move downfield with a decrease in RN…O. Further, the behavior of proton chemical shift tensor components depending on the hydrogen-bond length and hydrogen-bond angle was discussed
Renormalization Group Technique Applied to the Pairing Interaction of the Quasi-One-Dimensional Superconductivity
A mechanism of the quasi-one-dimensional (q1d) superconductivity is
investigated by applying the renormalization group techniques to the pairing
interaction. With the obtained renormalized pairing interaction, the transition
temperature Tc and corresponding gap function are calculated by solving the
linearized gap equation. For reasonable sets of parameters, Tc of p-wave
triplet pairing is higher than that of d-wave singlet pairing due to the
one-dimensionality of interaction. These results can qualitatively explain the
superconducting properties of q1d organic conductor (TMTSF)2PF6 and the ladder
compound Sr2Ca12Cu24O41.Comment: 18 pages, 9 figures, submitted to J. Phys. Soc. Jp
Competition between singlet and triplet pairings in Na_xCoO_2 yH_2O
We discuss the pairing symmetry of a cobaltate superconductor
NaCoO HO by adopting an effective single band model that
takes into account the hole pockets, as discussed in our previous paper
[to appear in Phys. Rev. Lett.] Here we consider the off-site repulsions in
addition to the on-site repulsion considered in our previous study. We show
that the spin-triplet f-wave pairing proposed in our previous study is robust
to some extent even in the presence of off-site repulsions. However, f-wave
pairing gives way to singlet pairings for sufficiently large values of off-site
repulsions. Among the singlet pairings, i-wave and extended s-wave pairings are
good candidates which do not break time reversal symmetry below in
agreement with the experiments.Comment: 12 page
Superconductivity in quantum-dot superlattices composed of quantum wire networks
Based on calculations using the local density approximation, we propose
quantum wire networks with square and plaquette type lattice structures that
form quantum dot superlattices. These artificial structures are well described
by the Hubbard model. Numerical analysis reveals a superconducting ground state
with transition temperatures of up to 90 mK for the plaquette, which is
more than double the value of 40 mK for the square lattice type and is
sufficiently high to allow for the experimental observation of
superconductivity.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
"Pudding mold" band drives large thermopower in NaCoO
In the present study, we pin down the origin of the coexistence of the large
thermopower and the large conductivity in NaCoO. It is revealed that
not just the density of states (DOS), the effective mass, nor the band width,
but the peculiar {\it shape} of the band referred to as the "pudding
mold" type, which consists of a dispersive portion and a somewhat flat portion,
is playing an important role in this phenomenon. The present study provides a
new guiding principle for designing good thermoelectric materials.Comment: 5 page
