Short-time dynamics in s+is-wave superconductor with incipient bands

Motivated by the recent observation of the time-reversal symmetry broken state in K-doped BaFe$_2$As$_2$ superconducting alloys, we theoretically study the collective modes and the short time dynamics of the superconducting state with $s+is$-wave order parameter using an effective four-band model with two hole and two electron pockets. The superconducting $s+is$ state emerges for incipient electron bands as a result of hole doping and appears as an intermediate state between $s^{\pm}$ (high number of holes) and $s^{++}$ (low number of holes). The amplitude and phase modes are coupled giving rise to a variety of collective modes. In the $s^{\pm}$ state, we find the Higgs mode at frequencies similar to a two-band model with an absent Leggett mode, while in the $s+is$ and $s^{++}$ state, we uncover a new coupled collective soft mode. Finally we compare our results with the $s+id$ solution and find similar behaviour of the collective modes.
