Anomalous Hall effect and spin Hall effect originate due to spin-orbit coupling that in the Kohn-Luttinger ${\bf k}\cdot{\bf p}$ formalism is represented by anomalous terms in the coordinate and velocity operators. Relation of these…
By extending the Berry--Robnik approach for the nearly integrable quantum systems,\cite{[1]} we propose one possible scenario of the energy level spacing distribution that deviates from the Berry--Robnik distribution. The result described…
Excitons are neutral objects, that, naively, should have no response to a uniform, electric field. Could the Berry curvature of the underlying electronic bands alter this conclusion? In this work, we show that Berry curvature can indeed…
Using the quasiclassical concept of Berry curvature we demonstrate that a Dirac exciton - a pair of Dirac quasiparticles bound by Coulomb interactions - inevitably possesses an intrinsic angular momentum making the exciton effectively…
