Abstract

We derive the exact dual to the Bosonic Hubbard model. The dual variables take the form of conserved current loops (local and global). Previously this has been done only for the very soft core model at very high density. No such approximations are made here. In particular, the dual of the hard core model is shown to have a very simple form which is then used to construct an efficient Monte Carlo algorithm which is quite similar to the World Line algorithm but with some important differences. For example, with this algorithm we can measure easily the correlation function of the order parameter (Green function), a quantity which is extremely difficult to measure with the standard World Line algorithm. We demonstrate the algorithm for the one and two dimensional hardcore Bosonic Hubbard models. We present new results especially for the Green function and zero mode filling fraction in the two dimensional hardcore model.

Anisotropic upper critical field in the van der Waals superconducting quasicrystal (Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$)$_{1.6}$Te

We investigated the upper critical field of a large single grain of the Nb-substituted van der Waals layered quasicrystal (Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$)$_{1.6}$Te. The sample exhibits a sharp superconducting transition at $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ = 1.35 K, the highest value reported to date among quasicrystal superconductors. The angular dependence of the critical field exhibits a pronounced criterion dependence: the field determined using the 10% $R_{\mathrm{N}}$ ($R_{\mathrm{N}}$: normal-state resistance) criterion is well described by the anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau model, whereas those determined using the 65% and 90% $R_{\mathrm{N}}$ criteria exhibit Tinkham-like angular dependence characteristic of two-dimensional superconductivity. The high-field part of the resistive transition is well described by a surface-superconductivity model and exhibits a pronounced excitation-current dependence for magnetic fields close to the $ab$ plane, supporting the presence of surface superconductivity on the quasiperiodic $ab$-plane surfaces. The bulk $H_{\mathrm{c2}}$ is strongly anisotropic, with the in-plane $H_{\mathrm{c2}}$ exceeding the weak-coupling Pauli limit by a factor of approximately 2.5. For both field orientations, $H_{\mathrm{c2}}(T)$ deviates upward from the conventional dirty-limit Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg prediction at low temperatures. A phenomenologically modified Ginzburg-Landau-Abrikosov-Gorkov model incorporating a spatial distribution of the electronic diffusivity substantially improves the description of $H_{\mathrm{c2}}(T)$, suggesting that spatial variations in electronic transport properties may contribute to its anomalous temperature dependence.

Field-induced incipient spin-density phase stabilized inside the nematic phase of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$

Spin-density wave (SDW) order and superconductivity frequently compete and coexist in unconventional superconductors, where spin fluctuations often mediate superconducting pairing. In iron-chalcogenide superconductors, FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$, SDW order has only been detected under applied pressure, while both spin and nematic fluctuations are involved in determining their rich superconducting phase diagrams. Here, we report evidence for an incipient SDW phase, within the nematic state of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$, revealed in magnetic fields up to 68~T. Once superconductivity is quenched, we observe sharp upturns in longitudinal resistivity accompanied by anomalies in tunnel diode oscillator frequency response and torque anisotropy, consistent with a field-induced electronic order. Dominant low-frequency quantum oscillations reveal a small reconstructed Fermi surface, consistent with a field-induced SDW order. Direct experimental comparisons with a pressure-tuned nematic, analogue, FeSe$_{0.96}$S$_{0.04}$, demonstrate that SDW phases are stabilized within the nematic phase of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ via both chemical substitution and applied pressure. These findings reveal that by weakening nematicity, the SDW orders are stabilised, which promotes the dominant superconducting pairing mechanism in iron chalcogenides.

Q-ball mechanism of electron transport and spin/phonon excitations properties of high-Tc superconductors

The Q-ball mechanism of high Tc superconductivity in cuprates, recently proposed by the author, is farther explored. Scattering on the Q-balls above Tc causes linear with temperature growth of electrical resistivity, splitting of the inplane phonon brunches into softened and hardened ones and hourglass dispersion of spin-wave excitations close to CDW and SDW wave vectors respectively. The diamagnetic response of Q-balls gas above Tc is in qualitative accord with experimental data in high Tc cuprates.
