On the superconductivity in the induced pairing model

The two component model of coexisting local electron pairs and itinerant fermions coupled via charge exchange mechanism, which mutually induces superconductivity in both subsystems, is discussed. The cases of isotropic s-wave and anisotropic pairing of extended s- and dx2-y2-wave symmetries are analyzed for a 2D square lattice within the BCS-mean field approximation and the Kosterlitz-Thouless theory. We determined the phase diagrams and superconducting characteristics as a function of the position of the local pair (LP) level and the total electron concentration. The model exhibits several types of interesting crossovers from BCS like behavior to that of LP's. Some of our results are discussed in connection with a two-component scenario of preformed pairs and unpaired electrons for exotic superconductors
