| Abstract: | It is argued that close to a Coulomb interacting quantum critical point the interaction between two vortices in a disordered superconducting thin film separated by a distance r changes from logarithmic in the mean-field region to 1/r in the region dominated by quantum critical fluctuations. This gives support to the charge-vortex duality picture of the observed reflection symmetry in the current-voltage characteristics on both sides of the transition. |
