We deal with the gap function and the thermodynamical potential in the BCS-Bogoliubov theory of superconductivity, where the gap function is a function of the temperature $T$ only. We show that the squared gap function is of class $C^2$ on the closed interval $[ 0, T_c ]$ and point out some more properties of the gap function. Here, $T_c$ stands for the transition temperature. On the basis of this study we then give, examining the thermodynamical potential, a mathematical proof that the transition to a superconducting state is a second-order phase transition. Furthermore, we obtain a new and more precise form of the gap in the specific heat at constant volume from a mathematical point of view.

We first show some properties such as smoothness and monotone decreasingness of the solution to the BCS-Bogoliubov gap equation for superconductivity. Moreover we give the behavior of the solution with respect to the temperature near the transition t
emperature. On the basis of these results, dealing with the thermodynamic potential, we then show that the transition from a normal conducting state to a superconducting state is a second-order phase transition in the BCS-Bogoliubov model of superconductivity from the viewpoint of operator theory. Here we have no magnetic field and we need to introduce a cutoff $varepsilon>0$, which is sufficiently small and fixed (see Remark ref{rmk:varepsilon}). Moreover we obtain the exact and explicit expression for the gap in the specific heat at constant volume at the transition temperature.
We consider a system of mutually interacting spin 1/2 embedded in a transverse magnetic field which undergo a second order quantum phase transition. We analyze the entanglement properties and the spin squeezing of the ground state and show that, cont
rarily to the one-dimensional case, a cusp-like singularity appears at the critical point $lambda_c$, in the thermodynamic limit. We also show that there exists a value $lambda_0 geq lambda_c$ above which the ground state is not spin squeezed despite a nonvanishing concurrence.

we obtain the exact and explicit expression for the gap in the specific heat at constant volume at the transition temperature. To this end, we have to differentiate the thermodynamic potential with respect to the temperature two times. Since there is the solution to the BCS-Bogoliubov gap equation in the form of the thermodynamic potential, we have to differentiate the solution with respect to the temperature two times. Therefore, we need to show that the solution to the BCS-Bogoliubov gap equation is differentiable with respect to the temperature two times as well as its existence and uniqueness. We carry out its proof on the basis of fixed point theorems.
While not generally a conservation law, any symmetry of the equations of motion implies a useful reduction of any second-order equationto a first-order equation between invariants, whose solutions (first integrals) can then be integrated by quadratur
e (Lies Theorem on the solvability of differential equations). We illustrate this theorem by applying scale invariance to the equations for the hydrostatic equilibrium of stars in local thermodynamic equilibrium: Scaling symmetry reduces the Lane-Emden equation to a first-order equation between scale invariants un; vn, whose phase diagram encapsulates all the properties of index-n polytropes. From this reduced equation, we obtain the regular (Emden) solutions and demonstrate graphically how they transform under scale transformations.
Dark states are stationary states of a dissipative, Lindblad-type time evolution with zero von Neumann entropy, therefore representing examples of pure, steady quantum states. Non-equilibrium dynamics featuring a dark state recently gained a lot of a
ttraction since their implementation in the context of driven-open quantum systems represents a viable possibility to engineer unique, pure states. In this work, we analyze a driven many-body spin system, which undergoes a transition from a dark steady state to a mixed steady state as a function of the driving strength. This transition connects a zero entropy (dark) state with a finite entropy (mixed) state and thus goes beyond the realm of equilibrium statistical mechanics and becomes of genuine nonequilibrium character. We analyze the relevant long wavelength fluctuations driving this transition in a regime where the system performs a discontinuous jump from a dark to a mixed state by means of the renormalization group. This allows us to approach the nonequilibrium dark state transition and identify similarities and clear differences to common, equilibrium phase transitions, and to establish the phenomenology for a first order dark state phase transition.
