We study a model of $N$ fermions in a quantum dot, coupled to $M$ bosons by a disorder-induced complex Yukawa coupling (Yukawa-SYK model), in order to explore the interplay between non-Fermi liquid and superconductivity in a strongly coupled, (quantum-)critical environment. We analyze the phase diagram of the model for an arbitrary complex interaction and arbitrary ratio of $N/M$, with special focus on the two regimes of non-Fermi-liquid behavior: an SYK-like behavior with a power-law frequency dependence of the fermionic self-energy and an impurity-like behavior with frequency independent self-energy. We show that the crossover between the two. can be reached by varying either the strength of the fermion-boson coupling or the ratio $M/N$. We next argue that in both regimes the system is unstable to superconductivity if the strength of time-reversal-symmetry-breaking disorder is below a certain threshold. We show how the corresponding onset temperatures vary between the two regimes. We argue that the superconducting state is highly unconventional with an infinite set of minima of the condensation energy at $T=0$, corresponding to topologically different gap functions. We discuss in detail similarities and differences between this model and the model of dispersion-full fermions tuned to a metallic quantum-critical point, with an effective singular dynamical interaction $V(Omega) propto 1/|Omega|^gamma$ (the $gamma-$model).

A mysterious incoherent metallic (IM) normal state with $T$-linear resistivity is ubiquitous among strongly correlated superconductors. Recent progress with microscopic models exhibiting IM transport has presented the opportunity for us to study new
models that exhibit direct transitions into a superconducting state out of IM states within the framework of connected Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) quantum dots. Here local SYK interactions within a dot produce IM transport in the normal state, while local attractive interactions drive superconductivity. Through explicit calculations, we find two features of superconductivity arising from an IM normal state: First, despite the absence of quasiparticles in the normal state, the superconducting state still exhibits coherent superfluid transport. Second, the non-quasiparticle nature of the IM Greens functions produces a large enhancement in the ratio of the zero-temperature superconducting gap $Delta$ and transition temperature $T_{sc}$, $2Delta/T_{sc}$, with respect to its BCS value of $3.53$.
We revisit the interplay between superconductivity and quantum criticality when thermal effects from virtual static bosons are included. These contributions, which arise from an effective theory compactified on the thermal circle, strongly affect fie
ld-theoretic predictions even at small temperatures. We argue that they are ubiquitous in a wide variety of models of non-Fermi liquid behavior, and generically produce a parametric suppression of superconducting instabilities. We apply these ideas to non-Fermi liquids in $d=2$ space dimensions, obtained by coupling a Fermi surface to a Landau-damped soft boson. Extending previous methods developed for $d=3-epsilon$ dimensions, we determine the dynamics and phase diagram. It features a naked quantum critical point, separated by a continuous infinite order transition from a superconducting phase with strong non-Fermi liquid corrections. We also highlight the relevance of these effects for (numerical) experiments on non-Fermi liquids.
Understanding the complexities of electronic and magnetic ground states in solids is one of the main goals of solid-state physics. Materials with the canonical ThCr$_2$Si$_2$-type structure have proved particularly fruitful in this regards, as they e
xhibit a wide range of technologically advantageous physical properties described by many-body physics, including high-temperature superconductivity and heavy fermion behavior. Here, using high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction and time-of-flight neutron scattering, we show that the isostructural mixed valence compound, KNi$_2$S$_2$, displays a number of highly unusual structural transitions, most notably the presence of charge density wave fluctuations that disappear on cooling. This behavior occurs without magnetic or charge order, in contrast to expectations based on all other known materials. Furthermore, the low-temperature electronic state of KNi$_2$S$_2$ is found to exhibit many characteristics of heavy-fermion behavior, including a heavy electron state ($m^*/m_e sim$ 24), with a negative coefficient of thermal expansion, and superconductivity below $T_c$ = 0.46(2) K. In the potassium nickel sulfide, these behaviors arise in the absence of localized magnetism, and instead appear to originate in proximity to charge order.
Ferromagnetism and superconductivity are in most cases adverse. However, recent experiments reveal that they coexist at interfaces of LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. We analyze the magnetic state within density functional theory and provide evidence that magnetis
m is not an intrinsic property of the two-dimensional electron liquid at the interface. We demonstrate that the robust ferromagnetic state is induced by the oxygen vacancies in SrTiO3- or in the LaAlO3-layer. This allows for the notion that areas with increased density of oxygen vacancies produce ferromagnetic puddles and account for the previous observation of a superparamagnetic behavior in the superconducting state.
The magnetic-field, temperature, and angular dependence of the interlayer magnetoresistance of two different quasi-two-dimensional (2D) organic superconductors is reported. For $kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ we find a well-resolved peak in the angle-dep
endent magnetoresistance at $Theta = 90^circ$ (field parallel to the layers). This clear-cut proof for the coherent nature of the interlayer transport is absent for $beta$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$SF$_5$CH$_2$CF$_2$SO$_3$. This and the non-metallic behavior of the magnetoresistance suggest an incoherent quasiparticle motion for the latter 2D metal.
