The Kohn-Luttinger Effect in Gauge Theories
read the original abstract
Kohn and Luttinger showed that a many body system of fermions interacting via short range forces becomes superfluid even if the interaction is repulsive in all partial waves. In gauge theories such as QCD the interaction between fermions is long range and the assumptions of Kohn and Luttinger are not satisfied. We show that in a U(1) gauge theory the Kohn-Luttinger phenomenon does not take place. In QCD attractive channels always exist, but there are cases in which the primary pairing channel leaves some fermions ungapped. As an example we consider the unpaired fermion in the 2SC phase of QCD with two flavors. We show that it acquires a very small gap via a mechanism analogous to the Kohn-Luttinger effect. The gap is too small to be phenomenologically relevant.

Renormalization group analysis of color superconductivity revisited
An RG treatment with self-energy corrections reproduces the known O(g^0) color-superconducting gap and claims to fix its overall coefficient, implying a factor-two reduction.

Classification of color superconductivity by one-gluon exchange helicity amplitudes and renormalization group equations
In dense QCD, the most attractive quark pairing channel is classified by helicity amplitudes and renormalization group equations, with a new p-wave (1P1) channel favored for symmetric flavor and attraction found in th...
