The unusual transport properties of graphene are the direct consequence of a peculiar bandstructure near the Dirac point. We determine the shape of the pi bands and their characteristic splitting, and the transition from a pure 2D to…
There is evidence for existence of massless Dirac quasi-particles in graphene, which satisfy Dirac equation in (1+2) dimensions near the so called Dirac points which lie at the corners at the graphene's brilluoin zone. We revisit the…
Bound electron states in impure graphene are considered. Short-range perturbations for defect and impurities of the types "local chemical potential" and "local gap" are taken into account.
We show that, at sufficiently large strength of the long-range Coulomb interaction, a mass term breaking parity (so-called Haldane mass) is dynamically generated in the many-body theory of Dirac fermions describing the graphene layer. While…

The quasi-2D electrons in graphene behave as massless fermions obeying a Dirac-Weyl equation in the low-energy regime near the two Fermi points. The stability of spin-polarized phases (SPP) in graphene is considered. The exchange energy is…
The electromagnetic response of graphene in a magnetic field is studied, with particular emphasis on the quantum features of its ground state (vacuum). The graphene vacuum, unlike in conventional quantum Hall systems, is a dielectric medium…
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…

Electrons most often organize into Fermi-liquid states in which electron-electron interactions play an inessential role. A well known exception is the case of one-dimensional (1D) electron systems (1DES). In 1D the electron Fermi-surface…
The Coulomb impurity problem of graphene, in the absence of a magnetic field, displays discrete scale invariance. Applying a magnetic field introduces a new magnetic length scale $\ell$ and breaks discrete scale invariance. Moreover, a…
The incompatibility between the Lorentz invariance of classical electromagnetism and the Galilean invariance of continuum mechanics is one of the major barriers to prevent two theories from merging. In this note, a systematic approach of…
