The discovery of superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene has triggered a resurgence of interest in flat-band superconductivity. Here, we investigate the square-octagon lattice, which also exhibits two perfectly flat bands when next-nearest neighbour hopping or an external magnetic field are added to the system. We calculate the superconducting phase diagram in the presence of on-site attractive interactions and find two superconducting domes, as observed in several types of unconventional superconductors. The critical temperature shows a linear dependence on the coupling constant, suggesting that superconductivity might reach high temperatures in the square-octagon lattice. Our model could be experimentally realized using photonic or ultracold atoms lattices.

One novel arena for designing superconductors with high $T_C$ is the flat-band systems. A basic idea is that flat bands, arising from quantum mechanical interference, give unique opportunities for enhancing $T_C$ with (i) many pair-scattering channel
s between the dispersive and flat bands, and (ii) an even more interesting situation when the flat band is topological and highly entangled. Here we compare two routes, which comprise a multi-band system with a flat band coexisting with dispersive ones, and a one-band case with a portion of the band being flat. Superconductivity can be induced in both cases when the flat band or portion is incipient (close to, but away from, the Fermi energy). Differences are, for the multi-band case, we can exploit large entanglement associated with topological states, while for the one-band case a transition between different (d and p) wave pairings can arise. These hint at some future directions.
The weak-coupling renormalization group method is an asymptotically exact method to find superconducting instabilities of a lattice model of correlated electrons. Here we extend it to spin-orbit coupled lattice systems and study the emerging supercon
ducting phases of the Rashba-Hubbard model. Since Rashba type spin-orbit coupling breaks inversion symmetry, the arising superconducting phases may be a mixture of spin-singlet and spin-triplet states. We study the two-dimensional square lattice as a paradigm and discuss the symmetry properties of the arising spin-orbit coupled superconducting states including helical spin-triplet superconductivity. We also discuss how to best deal with split energy bands within a method which restricts paired electrons to momenta on the Fermi surface.
The basic features of multi-band superconductivity and its implications are derived. In particular, it is shown that enhancements of the superconducting transition temperature take place due to interband interactions. In addition, isotope effects dif
fer substantially from the typical BCS scheme as soon as polaronic coupling effects are present. Special cases of the model are polaronic coupling in one band as realized e.g., in cuprates, coexistence of a flat band and a steep band like in MgB2, crossovers between extreme cases. The advantages of the multiband approach as compared to the single band BCS model are elucidated and its rather frequent realization in actual systems discussed
We use unbiased numerical methods to study the onset of pair superfluidity in a system that displays flat bands in the noninteracting regime. This is achieved by using a known example of flat band systems, namely the Creutz lattice, where we investig
ate the role of local attractive interactions in the $U < 0$ Hubbard model. Going beyond the standard approach used in these systems where weak interactions are considered, we map the superfluid behavior for a wide range of interaction strengths and exhibit a crossover between BCS and tightly bound bosonic fermion pairs. We further contrast these results with a standard two-leg fermionic ladder, showing that the pair correlations, although displaying algebraic decay in both cases, are longer ranged in the Creutz lattice, signifying the robustness of pairing in this system.
The discovery of superconductivity in Sr-doped NdNiO$_{2}$ is a crucial breakthrough in the long pursuit for nickel oxide materials with electronic and magnetic properties similar to those of the cuprates. NdNiO$_2$ is the infinite-layer member of a
family of square-planar nickelates with general chemical formula R$_{n+1}$Ni$_n$O$_{2n+2}$ (R = La, Pr, Nd, $n= 2, 3, ... infty$). In this letter, we investigate superconductivity in the trilayer member of this series (R$_4$Ni$_3$O$_8$) using a combination of first-principles and $t-J$ model calculations. R$_4$Ni$_3$O$_8$ compounds resemble cuprates more than RNiO$_2$ materials in that only Ni-$d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$ bands cross the Fermi level, they exhibit a largely reduced charge transfer energy, and as a consequence superexchange interactions are significantly enhanced. We find that the superconducting instability in doped R$_4$Ni$_3$O$_8$ compounds is considerably stronger with a maximum gap about four times larger than that in Sr$_{0.2}$Nd$_{0.8}$NiO$_2$.
