We study the problem of Coulomb field-induced charging of the ground state in a system of 2D massive Dirac particles (gapped graphene). As in its 3D QED counterpart, the critical Coulomb coupling is renormalized to higher values, compared…

Using the tight-binding model with long-range Coulomb interactions between electrons, we study some of the electronic properties of graphene. The Coulomb interactions are treated with the renormalized-ring-diagram approximation. By…

We argue, for a wide class of systems including graphene, that in the low temperature, high density, large separation and strong screening limits the drag resistivity behaves as d^{-4}, where d is the separation between the two layers. The…

The strong long-range Coulomb interaction between massless Dirac fermions in graphene can drive a semimetal-insulator transition. We show that this transition is strongly suppressed when the Coulomb interaction is screened by such effects…

It is shown that clustering of charged impurities on graphene can suppress their contribution to the resistivity by a large factor of about the number of impurities per cluster, while leaving the density dependence unchanged. If the cluster…

Electron correlation in graphene is unique because of the interplay of the Dirac cone dispersion of $\pi$ electrons with long range Coulomb interaction. The random phase approximation predicts no metallic screening at long distance and low…
