A Renormalization Group Analysis of Coupled Superconducting and Stripe Order in 1+1 Dimensions

Abstract

In this paper we perform a renormalization group analysis on the 1+1 dimensional version of an effective field theory (previously proposed by Dung-Hai Lee, cond-mat/011393) describing (quantum) fluctuating stripe and superconductor orders. We find four possible phases corresponding to stripe order/disorder combined with superconducting order/disorder.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures, revte
