Derivation of Green's Function of Spin Calogero-Sutherland Model by Uglov's Method

Hole propagator of spin 1/2 Calogero-Sutherland model is derived using Uglov's method, which maps the exact eigenfunctions of the model, called Yangian Gelfand-Zetlin basis, to a limit of Macdonald polynomials (gl_2-Jack polynomials). To apply this mapping method to the calculation of 1-particle Green's function, we confirm that the sum of the field annihilation operator on Yangian Gelfand-Zetlin basis is transformed to the field annihilation operator on gl_2-Jack polynomials by the mapping. The resultant expression for hole propagator for finite-size system is written in terms of renormalized momenta and spin of quasi-holes and the expression in the thermodynamic limit coincides with the earlier result derived by another method. We also discuss the singularity of the spectral function for a specific coupling parameter where the hole propagator of spin Calogero-Sutherland model becomes equivalent to dynamical colour correlation function of SU(3) Haldane-Shastry model.

Reflection and Refraction of Bose-condensate Excitations

We investigate the transmission and reflection of Bose-condensate excitations in the low energy limit across a potential barrier separating two condensates with different densities. The Bogoliubov excitation in the low energy limit has the incident angle where the perfect transmission occurs. This condition corresponds to the Brewster's law for the electromagnetic wave. The total internal reflection of the Bogoliubov excitation is found to occur at a large incident angle in the low energy limit. The anomalous tunneling named by Kagan et al. [Yu. Kagan et al., Phys. Rev. Lett., 90, 130402 (2003)] can be understood in terms of the impedance matching. In the case of the normal incidence, comparison with the results in Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids is made.

Mechanism of Anomalous Tunneling in Condensed Bose System

We clarify the origin of anomalous tunneling [Yu. Kagan et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 90 (2003) 130402] i.e. the perfect transmission at low energy limit of tunneling of phonon excitations across the potential barrier separating two Bose condensates. The perfect transmission is a consequence of the coincidence of the wave function of the excited state at low energy limit and the macroscopic wave function of the condensate. We show that the perfect transmission at low energy occurs even at finite temperatures within the scheme of Popov approximation.

Positions of Point-Nodes in Borocarbide Superconductor YNi2B2C

To determine the superconducting gap function of YNi2B2C, we calculate the local density of states (LDOS) around a single vortex core with the use of Eilenberger theory and the band structure calculated by local density approximation assuming various gap structures with point-nodes at different positions. We also calculate the angular-dependent heat capacity in the vortex state on the basis of the Doppler-Shift method. Comparing our results with the STM/STS experiment, the angular-dependent heat capacity and thermal conductivity, we propose the gap-structure of YNi2B2C, which has the point-nodes and gap minima along <110>. Our gap-structure is consistent with all results of angular-resolved experiments.

Analytical Formulation of the Local Density of States around a Vortex Core in Unconventional Superconductors

On the basis of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity, we obtain a formula for the local density of states (LDOS) around a vortex core of superconductors with anisotropic pair-potential and Fermi surface in arbitrary directions of magnetic fields. Earlier results on the LDOS of d-wave superconductors and NbSe$_2$ are naturally interpreted within our theory geometrically; the region with high intensity of the LDOS observed in numerical calculations turns out to the enveloping curve of the trajectory of Andreev bound states. We discuss experimental results on YNi$_2$B$_2$C within the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity.

Analytical Result on Electronic States around a Vortex Core in a Noncentrosymmetric Superconductor

We analytically study electronic bound states around a single vortex core in a noncentrosymmetric superconductor such as ${\rm CePt_3Si}$ without mirror symmetry about the $ab$ plane. Considering a mixed spin-singlet-triplet Cooper pairing model, we obtain a formula about the local density of states (LDOS) around a vortex core in any directions of magnetic fields. The LDOS under a magnetic field perpendicular to the c axis are quite different from those of typical s-wave or d-wave superconductors. From the ellipticity of the spatial pattern of the LDOS around a vortex core, one can estimate experimentally the pairing symmetry of ${\rm CePt_3Si}$ such as the position of the gap nodes and the ratio of the singlet component to the triplet component in order parameter.

Interplay between Vorticity and Chirality inside the Vortex Core in Chiral p-Wave Superconductors

The vortex core in chiral p-wave superconductors exhibits various properties owing to the interplay between the vorticity and chirality inside the vortex core. In the chiral p-wave superconductors, the site-selective nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate T1^{-1} is theoretically studied inside the vortex core within the framework of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. T1^{-1} at the vortex center depends on the sense of the chirality relative to the sense of the magnetic field. The effect of a tilt of the magnetic field upon T1^{-1} is investigated. The effect of the anisotropy in the superconducting gap and the Fermi surface is then investigated. The result is expected to be experimentally observed as a sign of the chiral pairing state in a superconducting material Sr2RuO4.

Relation between Vortex Pinning Energy and Anderson's Theorem

We discuss the elementary vortex pinning in type-II superconductors in connection with the Anderson's theorem for nonmagnetic impurities. We address the following two issues. One is an enhancement of the vortex pinning energy in the unconventional superconductors. This enhancement comes from the pair-breaking effect of a nonmagnetic defect as the pinning center far away from the vortex core (i.e., the pair-breaking effect due to the non-applicability of the Anderson's theorem in the unconventional superconductors). The other is an effect of the chirality on the vortex pinning energy in a chiral p-wave superconductor. The vortex pinning energy depends on the chirality. This is related to the cancellation of the angular momentum between the vorticity and chirality in a chiral p-wave vortex core, resulting in local applicability of the Anderson's theorem (or local recovery of the Anderson's theorem) inside the vortex core.

Nuclear Magnetic Relaxation Rate in the Vortex State of a Chiral p-Wave Superconductor

The site-selective nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate T1^{-1} is theoretically studied inside a vortex core in a chiral p-wave superconductor within the framework of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. It is found that T1^{-1} at the vortex center depends on the sense of the chirality relative to the sense of the magnetic field. Our numerical result shows a characteristic difference in T1^{-1} between the two chiral states, k_x + i k_y and k_x - i k_y under the magnetic field.

Numerical Study of Impurity Effects on Quasiparticles within S-wave and Chiral P-wave Vortices

The impurity problems within vortex cores of two-dimensional s-wave and chiral p-wave superconductors are studied numerically in the framework of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity and self-consistent Born approximation under a trial form of the pair potential. The dispersion and impurity scattering rate (the inverse of the relaxation time) of the Andreev bound state localized in vortex cores are deduced from the angular-resoloved local density of states. The energy dependence of the impurity scattering rates depends on the pairing symmetry; particularly, in the chiral p-wave vortex core where chirality and vorticity have opposite sign and hence the total angular momentum is zero, the impurities are ineffective and the scattering rate is vanishingly small. Owing to the cancellation of angular momentum between chirality and vorticity, the chiral p-wave vortex core is similar to locally realized s-wave region and therefore non-magnetic impurity is harmless as a consequence of Anderson's theorem. The results of the present study confirm the previous results of analytical study (J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. {\bf 69} (2000) 3378) in the Born limit.

Elementary vortex pinning potential in a chiral p-wave superconductor

The elementary vortex pinning potential is studied in a chiral p-wave superconductor with a pairing d=z(k_x + i k_y) on the basis of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. An analytical investigation and numerical results are presented to show that the vortex pinning potential is dependent on whether the vorticity and chirality are parallel or antiparallel. Mutual cancellation of the vorticity and chirality around a vortex is physically crucial to the effect of the pinning center inside the vortex core.

Elementary vortex pinning potential in superconductors with unconventional order parameter

The elementary vortex pinning potential is studied in unconventional superconductors within the framework of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. Numerical results are presented for d-, anisotropic s-, and isotropic s-wave superconductors to show explicitly that in unconventional superconductors the vortex pinning potential is determined mainly by the loss of the condensation energy in bulk due to the presence of the pinning center, i.e., by the breakdown of the Anderson's theorem. It is found that the vortex pinning energy in the d-wave pairing case is 4 -- 13 times larger than those in the s-wave pairing cases. This means that an enhancement of pinning effect in unconventional superconductors occurs due to the breakdown of the Anderson's theorem. The case of a chiral p-wave superconductor is also investigated in terms of the vortex core states subject to the Andreev reflection, where important is whether the vorticity and chirality are parallel or antiparallel.

Kramer-Pesch effect in chiral p-wave superconductors

The pair-potential and current density around a single vortex of the two-dimensional chiral p-wave superconductor with ${\mib d}={\mib z}(p_x \pm \iu p_y)$ are determined self-consistently within the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. Shrinking of the vortex core at low temperatures are considered numerically and analytically. Temperature-dependences of the spatial variation of pair-potential and circular current around the core and density of states at zero energy are the same as those in the isotropic s-wave case. When the senses of vorticity and chirality are opposite, however, we find two novel results; 1) the scattering rate due to non-magnetic impurities is considerably suppressed, compared to that in the s-wave vortex. From this observation, we expect that the chiral p-wave superconductors provide the best chance to observe the shrinking of the vortex ("Kramer-Pesch effect") experimentally. 2) The pair-potential of chiral p-wave superconductors inside vortex core recovers a combined time-reversal-Gauge symmetry, although this symmetry is broken in the region far from the vortex core. This local recovery of symmetry leads to the suppression of the impurity effect inside vortex core.

Phase-Sensitive Impurity Effects in Vortex Core of Moderately Clean Chiral Superconductors

We study impurity effects in vortex core of two-dimensional moderately clean su perconductors within the quasiclassical theory. The impurity scattering rate $\G amma(E)$ of the Andreev bound states in vortex core with +1 vorticity of p-wav e superconductors with ${\mib d}=\hat{\mib z}(p_x+\iu p_y)$ is suppre ssed, compared to the normal state scattering rate $Γ_{\rm n}$ in the energ y region $Γ_{\rm n}^3/E_δ^2\ll E\ll E_δ\equiv |δ_0|Δ_ınfty$ with scattering phase shift $δ_0$ $(|δ_0|\ll 1)$ and the pair-po tential in bulk $Δ_\infty$. Further we find that $Γ(E)/Γ_{\rm n}$ for p-wave superconductors with ${\mib d}=\hat{\mib z}(p_x-\iu p_y)$ is at most ${\cal O}(E/Δ_ınfty)$. These results are in marked contrast to the even-parity case (s,d-wave), where $Γ(E)/Γ_{\rm n}$ is known to be proportional to $\ln(Δ_ınfty/E)$ . Parity- and chirality-dependences of impurity effects are attributed to the Andr eev reflections involved in the impurity-induced scattering between bound states . Implications for the flux flow conductivity is also discussed. Novel enhanceme nt of flux flow conductivity is expected to occur at $T\ll E_δ$ for ${\mib d}=\hat{\mib z}(p_x+\iu p_y)$ and at $T\ll Δ_\infty$ for ${\mib d}=\hat{\mib z}(p_x-\iu p_y)$.

Exact Result on Hole Dynamics of One-Dimensional Supersymmetric t-J Model with Long Range Interaction

We obtain an exact result on single hole dynamics in one-dimensional Mott-insulators through the study on the supersymmetric t-J model with long range interaction at half-filling. We calculate the expression G_{1s1h}(x,t) for one spinon one holon contribution to the hole propagator. We find that G_{1s1h}(x=0,t=0)=3/8, which amounts to 75% of the spin-fixed mean particle density 1/2.

Elementary Excitations and Dynamical Correlation Functions of the Calogero-Sutherland Model with Internal Symmetry

We consider the physical properties of elementary excitations of the Calogero-Sutherland (CS) model with SU(K) internal symmetry. From the results on the thermodynamics of this model, we obtain the charge, spin, and statistics of elementary excitations. Combining this knowledge and the known results on the dynamics in the spinless CS model, we propose the expression for the dynamical correlation functions of the SU(K) CS model. In the asymptotic region, we confirm the consistency of our results with predictions from conformal field theory.

Green Function of the Sutherland Model with SU(2) internal symmetry

We obtain the hole propagator of the Sutherland model with SU(2) internal symmetry for coupling parameter $β=1$, which is the simplest nontrivial case. One created hole with spin down breaks into two quasiholes with spin down and one quasihole with spin up. While these elementary excitations are energetically free, the form factor reflects their anyonic character. The expression for arbitrary integer $β$ is conjectured.
