Dynamical effects on superconductivity in BCS-BEC crossover

Abstract

We investigate the dynamical effects of pairing interaction on superconductivity in BCS-BEC crossover by studying the Holstein model at half-filling where the electron-phonon coupling $g$ controls the crossover. The dynamical mean-field theory was employed in combination with the numerical renormalization group technique. The dynamical effects induce distinct features such as absenceof the dispersion back-bending of Bogoliubov quasi-particles, non-monotonous coupling dependence of the pairing gap, and the soft phonon spectrum due to the Goldstone mode of local pair phase fluctuations. Also interesting is the maximum critical temperature being at the normal state phase boundary. Some of these features have intriguing similarities with the recent observations in the FeSe${}_{1-x}$S${}_x$ and Fe${}_{1+y}$Se${}_x$Te${}_{1-x}$ iron-chalcogenides in the BCS-BEC crossover.
