We study the long-time behavior of small solutions for a broad class of 2D Dirac-type equations with suitable nonlinearities. First, we prove that for nonlinearities with power $p\geq 5$ (massless case) and $p\geq7$ (massive case), any…

The lack of both nesting and a van Hove singularity at half filling, together with the presence of Dirac cones makes the honeycomb lattice a special laboratory to explore strongly correlated phenomena. For instance, at zero temperature the…
Semiconductor superlattices may display dispersions that are degenerate either at the zone center or zone boundary. We show that they are linear upon the wave-vector in the vicinity of the crossing point. This establishes a realisation of…
