Quantum Fluctuations and Dynamic Clustering of Fluctuating Cooper Pairs

We derive exact expressions for the fluctuation conductivity in two dimensional superconductors as a function of temperature and magnetic field in the whole fluctuation region above the upper critical field H_{c2}(T). Focusing on the vicinity of the quantum phase transition near zero temperature, we propose that as the magnetic field approaches the line near H_{c2}(0) from above, a peculiar dynamic state consisting of clusters of coherently rotating fluctuation Cooper-pairs forms and estimate the characteristic size and lifetime of such clusters. We find the zero temperature magnetic field dependence of the the transverse magnetoconductivity above H_{c2}(0) in layered superconductors.
