Operators and Symmetries

  1. \(c_{n,\uparrow}^\dagger c_{n,\downarrow}\)
  2. \(c_{n,\uparrow}^\dagger c_{n+1,\downarrow}\)
    • Doesn't necessarily have to break TRS or translational symmetry
    • Spin-Orbit coupling
  3. \(c_{n,\uparrow}^\dagger c_{n+1,\uparrow}^\dagger\)
    • Doesn't conserve charge
    • Unconventional Superconductivity (Crbr3/NbSe2)
