Recently experiments on high critical temperature superconductors has shown that the doping levels and the superconducting gap are usually not uniform properties but strongly dependent on their positions inside a given sample. Local superconducting regions develop at the pseudogap temperature ($T^*$) and upon cooling, grow continuously. As one of the consequences a large diamagnetic signal above the critical temperature ($T_c$) has been measured by different groups. Here we apply a critical-state model for the magnetic response to the local superconducting domains between $T^*$ and $T_c$ and show that the resulting diamagnetic signal is in agreement with the experimental results.

We propose a model and derive analytical expressions for conductivity in heterogeneous fully anisotropic conductors with ellipsoid superconducting inclusions. This model and calculations are useful to analyze the observed temperature dependence of co
nductivity anisotropy in various anisotropic superconductors, where superconductivity onset happens inhomogeneously in the form of isolated superconducting islands. The results are applied to explain the experimental data on resistivity above the transition temperature $T_c$ in the high-temperature superconductor $mathrm{YBa_2Cu_4O_8}$ and in the organic superconductor $beta$-(BEDT-TTF)$_{2}$I$_{3}$. The comparison of resistivity data and diamagnetic response in $beta$-(BEDT-TTF)$_{2}$I$_{3}$ allows us to estimate the size of superconducting inclusions as $dsim 1mu m$.
We express the superconducting gap, $Delta(T)$, in terms of thermodynamic functions in both $s$- and d-wave symmetries. Applying to Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ and Y$_{0.8}$Ca$_{0.2}$Ba$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ we find that for all dopings $Delta
(T)$ persists, as a partial gap, high above $T_c$ due to strong superconducting fluctuations. Therefore in general two gaps are present above $T_c$, the superconducting gap and the pseudogap, effectively reconciling two highly polarized views concerning pseudogap physics.
Using the large-$N$ limit of the $t$-$J$ model and allowing also for phonons and the electron-phonon interaction we study the isotope effect $alpha$ for coupling constants appropriate for YBCO. We find that $alpha$ has a minimum at optimal doping and
increases strongly (slightly) towards the underdoped (overdoped) region. Using values for the electron phonon interaction from the local density approximation we get good agreement for $alpha$ as a function of $T_c$ and doping $delta$ with recent experimental data in YBCO. Our results strongly suggest that the large increase of $alpha$ in the underdoped region is (a) caused by the shift of electronic spectral density from low to high energies associated with a competing phase (in our case a charge density wave) and the formation of a gap, and (b) compatible with the small electron phonon coupling constants obtained from the local density approximation. We propose a similar explanation for the anomalous behavior of $alpha$ in Sr doped La$_2$CuO$_4$ near the doping 1/8.
The Meissner effect and the associated perfect bulk diamagnetism together with zero resistance and gap opening are characteristic features of the superconducting state. In the pseudogap state of cuprates unusual diamagnetic signals as well as anomalo
us proximity effects have been detected but a Meissner effect has never been observed. Here we have probed the local diamagnetic response in the normal state of an underdoped La1.94Sr0.06CuO4 layer (up to 46 nm thick, critical temperature Tc < 5 K) which was brought into close contact with two nearly optimally doped La1.84Sr0.16CuO4 layers (Tc approx 32 K). We show that the entire barrier layer of thickness much larger than the typical c axis coherence lengths of cuprates exhibits a Meissner effect at temperatures well above Tc but below Tc. The temperature dependence of the effective penetration depth and superfluid density in different layers indicates that superfluidity with long-range phase coherence is induced in the underdoped layer by the proximity to optimally doped layers; however, this induced order is very sensitive to thermal excitation.
We study the electronic structures of two single layer superconducting cuprates, Tl$_2$Ba$_2$CuO$_{6+delta}$ (Tl2201) and (Bi$_{1.35}$Pb$_{0.85}$)(Sr$_{1.47}$La$_{0.38}$)CuO$_{6+delta}$ (Bi2201) which have very different maximum critical temperatures
(90K and 35K respectively) using Angular Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES). We are able to identify two main differences in their electronic properties. First, the shadow band that is present in double layer and low T$_{c,max}$ single layer cuprates is absent in Tl2201. Recent studies have linked the shadow band to structural distortions in the lattice and the absence of these in Tl2201 may be a contributing factor in its T$_{c,max}$.Second, Tl2201s Fermi surface (FS) contains long straight parallel regions near the anti-node, while in Bi2201 the anti-nodal region is much more rounded. Since the size of the superconducting gap is largest in the anti-nodal region, differences in the band dispersion at the anti-node may play a significant role in the pairing and therefore affect the maximum transition temperature.
