Abstract

Zero energy eigenstates ψ0(θ)\psi_0(\theta) of the twisted bilayer graphene Hamiltonian at the Dirac point show a high sensitivity to the twist angle θ\theta near the magic angles where the effective Fermi velocity vanishes. We use information theory markers, like fidelity-susceptibility and entanglement entropy of the reduced density matrix to the layer sector, to capture this quantum criticality of zero modes at magic twist angles.
