We use the renormalization group method to examine the effect of phonon mediated interaction on d-wave superconductivity, as driven by spin fluctuations in a quasi-one-dimensional electron system. The influence of a tight-binding electron-phonon interaction on the spin-density-wave and d-wave superconducting instability lines is calculated for arbitrary temperature, phonon frequency and antinesting of the Fermi surface.The domain of electron-phonon coupling strength where spin-density-wave order becomes unstable against the formation of a bond-order-wave or Peierls state is determined at weak antinesting. We show the existence of a positive isotope effect for spin-density-wave and d-wave superconducting critical temperatures which scales with the antinesting distance from quantum critical point where the two instabilities merge. We single out a low phonon frequency zone where the bond-oder-wave ordering gives rise to triplet f-wave superconductivity under nesting alteration, with both orderings displaying a negative isotope effect. We also study the electron-phonon strengthening of spin fluctuations at the origin of extended quantum criticality in the metallic phase above superconductivity. The impact of our results on quasi-one-dimensional organic conductors like the Bechgaard salts where a Peierls distortion is absent and superconductivity emerges near a spin-density-wave state under pressure is emphasized.

We consider possible routes to superconductivity in hydrated cobaltates Na_xCoO_2.yH_2O on the basis of the t-J-V model plus phonons on the triangular lattice. We studied the stability conditions for the homogeneous Fermi liquid (HFL) phase against d ifferent broken symmetry phases. Besides the sqrt(3)xsqrt(3)-CDW phase, triggered by the nearest-neighbour Coulomb interaction V, we have found that the HFL is unstable, at very low doping, against a bond-ordered phase due to J. We also discuss the occurrence of phase separation at low doping and V. The interplay between the electron-phonon interaction and correlations near the sqrt(3)xsqrt(3)-CDW leads to superconductivity in the unconventional next-nearest neighbour f-wave (NNN-f) channel with a dome shape for Tc around x ~ 0.35, and with values of a few Kelvin as seen in experiments. Near the bond-ordered phase at low doping we found tendencies to superconductivity with d-wave symmetry for finite J and x<0.15. Contact with experiments is given along the paper.
The origin of unconventional superconductivity, including high-temperature and heavy-fermion superconductivity, is still a matter of controversy. Spin excitations instead of phonons are thought to be responsible for the formation of Cooper pairs. Usi ng inelastic neutron scattering, we present the first in-depth study of the magnetic excitation spectrum in momentum and energy space in the superconducting and the normal states of CeCu2Si2. A clear spin excitation gap is observed in the superconducting state. We determine a lowering of the magnetic exchange energy in the superconducting state, in an amount considerably larger than the superconducting condensation energy. Our findings identify the antiferromagnetic excitations as the major driving force for superconducting pairing in this prototypical heavy-fermion compound located near an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point.

We discuss the possibility of superconductivity in graphene taking into account both electron-phonon and electron-electron Coulomb interactions. The analysis is carried out assuming that the Fermi energy is far away from the Dirac points, such that t he density of the particles (electrons or holes) is high. We derive proper Eliashberg equations that allow us to estimate the critical superconducting temperature. The most favorable is pairing of electrons belonging to different valleys in the spectrum. Using values of electron-phonon coupling estimated in other publications we obtain the critical temperature T_c as a function of the electron (hole) density. This temperature can reach the order of 10 K at the Fermi energy of order 1-2 eV. We show that the dependence of the intervalley pairing on the impurity concentration should be weak.
When phonons couple to fermions in 2D semimetals, the interaction may turn the system into an insulator. There are several insulating phases in which the time reversal and the sublattice symmetries are spontaneously broken. Examples are many-body sta tes commensurate to Haldanes staggered flux model or to lattice models with periodically modulated strain. We find that the effective field theories of these phases exhibit characteristic Chern-Simons terms, whose coefficients are related to the topological invariants of the microscopic model. This implies that the corresponding quantized Hall conductivities characterize these insulating states.

We study the role of excited phonon populations in the relaxation rates of nonequilibrium electrons using a nonequilibrium Greens function formalism. The transient modifications in the phononic properties are accounted for by self-consistently solvin g the Dyson equation for the electron and phonon Greens functions. The pump induced changes manifest in both the electronic and phononic spectral functions. We find that the excited phonon populations suppress the decay rates of nonequilibrium electrons due to enhanced phonon absorption. The increased phonon occupation also sets the nonequilibrium decay rates and the equilibrium scattering rates apart. The decay rates are found to be time-dependent, and this is illustrated in the experimentally observed population decay of photoexcited $mathrm{Bi}_{1.5}mathrm{Sb}_{0.5} mathrm{Te}_{1.7}mathrm{Se}_{1.3}$.
