Enhancement of superconducting stiffness in hybrid superconducting-metallic bilayers

J. E. Ebot, Lorenzo Pizzino, Sam Mardazad, Johannes S. Hofmann, Thierry Giamarchi, Adrian Kantian · 2026

Boosting superconductivity by metallic reservoirs is the essence of Kivelson's bilayer proposal. One layer provides pairing to the electrons, while the weakly coupled metal provides additional phase…

A No-Cloning Trade-off Between Black Hole No-Hair and Horizon Smoothness

Sudhanva Joshi, Sunil Kumar Mishra · 2026

The black hole no-hair theorem is traditionally derived from the uniqueness theorems of general relativity. We show that a quantitative form follows from unitarity together with the standard semiclass…
