Abstract
We study the BCS gap equation for a Fermi gas with unequal population of spin-up and spin-down states. For cosh (δ μ/T) ≤ 2, with T the temperature and δμ the chemical potential difference, the question of existence of non-trivial solutions can be reduced to spectral properties of a linear operator, similar to the unpolarized case studied previously in [Frank, R. L., Hainzl, C., Naboko, S., and Seiringer, R., J., Geom. Anal.17, 559-567 (2007)10.1007/BF02937429; Hainzl, C., Hamza, E., Seiringer, R., and Solovej, J. P., Commun., Math. Phys.281, 349-367 (2008)10.1007/s00220-008-0489-2; and Hainzl, C. and Seiringer, R., Phys. Rev. B77, 184517-110 435 (2008)]10.1103/PhysRevB.77.184517. For cosh (δ μ/T) > 2 the phase diagram is more complicated, however. We derive upper and lower bounds for the critical temperature, and study their behavior in the small coupling limit.
