We study the effects of a periodically varying electric field on the Hubbard model at half-filling on a triangular lattice. The electric field is incorporated through the phase of the nearest-neighbor hopping amplitude via the Peierls…
We present phase diagrams of the Harper map, which is equivalent to the problem of Bloch electrons in a uniform magnetic field (Azbel-Hofstadter model). We consider the cases where the magnetic flux $\omega$ assumes either the continued…

We describe how to engineer wavefunction delocalization in disordered systems modelled by tight-binding Hamiltonians in d>1 dimensions. We show analytically that a simple product structure for the random onsite potential energies, together…
We study entanglement dynamics in the nearest-neighbour fermionic chain that is subjected to both DC and AC electric fields. The dynamics gives the well known Bloch oscillations in the DC field case provided that the system size is larger…
The time-evolution operator for the kicked Harper model is reduced to block matrix form when the effective Planck's constant hbar = 2 pi M/N and M and N are integers. Each block matrix is spanned by an orthonormal set of N "kq"…
This work addresses the one-dimensional problem of Bloch electrons when they are rapidly driven by a homogeneous time-periodic light and linearly coupled to vibrational modes. Starting from a generic time-periodic electron-phonon…
We resolve an existing question concerning the location of the mobility edge for operators with a hopping term and a random potential on the Bethe lattice. The model has been among the earliest studied for Anderson localization, and it…
Since the experimental realisation of the integer quantised Hall effect in a two dimensional electron system subject to strong perpendicular magnetic fields in 1980, a central question has been the interrelation between the conductance…
We study, within the tight-binding approximation, the electronic properties of a graphene bilayer in the presence of an external electric field applied perpendicular to the system -- \emph{biased bilayer}. The effect of the perpendicular…
Disorder in a 1D quantum lattice induces Anderson localization of the eigenstates and drastically alters transport properties of the lattice. In the original Anderson model, the addition of a periodic driving increases, in a certain range…
