BCS to incoherent superconductivity crossover in the Yukawa-Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model on a lattice
Davide Valentinis, Gian Andrea Inkof, Jörg Schmalian
Abstract
We provide a quantitative and controlled analysis of the phase diagram of the Yukawa-Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model on a lattice, in the normal and superconducting states. We analyze the entire crossover from Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS)/weak coupling to Eliashberg/strong coupling superconductivity, as a function of fermion-boson interaction strength and hopping parameter. Cooper pairs of sharp Fermi-liquid quasiparticles at weak coupling evolve into pairing of fully incoherent fermions in the non-Fermi liquid regime. The crossovers leave observable traces in the critical temperature, the zero-temperature and zero-energy gap, the entropy, and the phase stiffness.
