  The superconducting state with the usual 2e-flux quantization formed from a
normal state with 3Q charge density or loop-current order is a linear
combination of 3 different paired states with an overall gauge invariant phase
and two internal phases such that the phases in equilibrium are at $2\pi/3$
with respect to each other. In the fluctuation regime of such a 3-component
superconductor, internal phase fluctuations are of the same class as for
frustrated classical xy-spins on a triangular lattice. The fluctuation region
is known therefore to be abnormally extended below the mean-field or the
Kosterlitz-Thouless transition temperature. A 6e-flux and a 4e-flux quantized
states can be constructed which are also eigenstates of the BCS Hamiltonian and
stationary points of the Ginzburg-Landau free-energy with a transition
temperature above that of the renormalized 2e-flux quantized state. Such states
have no internal phases and so no frustrating internal phase fluctuations.
These state however cannot acquire long-range order because their free-energy
is higher than the co-existing fluctuating state of 2e flux-quantization. 6e-
as well as 4e- flux-quantized Little-Parks oscillations however occur in which
the resistivity increases periodically with field above that of the
2e-fluctuating state in its extended fluctuation regime, as are observed,
followed at low temperatures to a condensation of the time-reversal odd
2e-quantized state
