Abstract
The solutions of a renormalized BCS model are studied in two space dim ensions for s, p and d waves for finite-range separable potentials. Th e gap parameter, the critical temperature T-c, the coherence length xi and the jump in specific heat at T-c as a function of the zero-temper ature condensation energy exhibit universal scalings. In the weak-coup ling limit, the present model yields a small xi and large T-c, appropr iate for high-T-c cuprates. The specific heat, penetration depth and t hermal conductivity as functions of temperature show universal scaling for p and d waves.
