Finite Wave Vector Pairing in Doped Two-leg Ladders

Description

We consider the effects of umklapp processes in doped two-leg fermionic ladders. These may emerge either at special band fillings or as a result of the presence of external periodic potentials. We show that such umklapp processes can lead to profound changes of physical properties and in particular stabilize pair-density wave phases.
