The low-energy bands of twisted bilayer graphene form Dirac cones with approximate electron-hole symmetry at small rotation angles. These crossings are protected by the emergent symmetries of moir\'e patterns, conferring a topological…
We present the electronic band structures of states with the same symmetry as the three-sublattice planar antiferromagnetic order of the triangular lattice. Such states can also be defined on the honeycomb lattice provided the spin density…
Both insulating and conducting electronic behaviors have been experimentally seen in clean bilayer graphene samples at low temperature, and there is still no consensus on the nature of the interacting ground state at half-filling and in the…
We analyze density-wave and Pomeranchuk orders in twisted bilayer graphene. This compliments our earlier analysis of the pairing instabilities. We assume that near half-filling of either conduction or valence band, the Fermi level is close…

We investigate the many-body instabilities of electrons interacting near Van Hove singularities arising in monolayer and twisted bilayer graphene. We show that a pairing instability must be dominant over the tendency to magnetic order as…

We explore the electronic ground states of Bernal-stacked multilayer graphenes using the Hartree-Fock mean-field approximation and the full-parameter band model. We find that the electron-electron interaction tends to open a band gap in…
We study the phase diagram of an effective model of competing nematic and antiferromagnetic orders of interacting electrons on the Bernal-stacked honeycomb bilayer, as relevant for bilayer graphene. In the noninteracting limit, the model…
Electron-electron interactions play an important role in graphene and related systems and can induce exotic quantum states, especially in a stacked bilayer with a small twist angle. For bilayer graphene where the two layers are twisted by a…
Recent experiments have observed possible spin- and valley-polarized insulators and spin-triplet superconductivity in twisted double bilayer graphene, a moire structure consisting of a pair of Bernal-stacked bilayer graphene. Besides the…
We argue that at finite carrier density and large displacement fields, bilayer graphene is prone to $\ell =0$ and $\ell = 1$ Pomeranchuk Fermi surface instabilities. The broken symmetries are driven by non-local exchange interactions which…
Graphene, a single sheet of graphite with honeycomb lattice structure, has massless carriers with tunable density and polarity. We investigate the ground state phase diagram of two graphene sheets (embedded in a dielectric) separated by…
Electron interactions in undoped bilayer graphene lead to instability of the gapless state, `which-layer' symmetry breaking, and energy gap opening at the Dirac point. In contrast to single layer graphene, the bilayer system exhibits…
We report on a fully self-consistent Hartree-Fock calculation of interaction effects on the Moir\'e flat bands of twisted bilayer graphene, assuming that valley U(1) symmetry is respected. We use realistic band structures and interactions…
