The quantum-Hall-effect (QHE) occurs in topologically-ordered states of two-dimensional (2d) electron-systems in which an insulating bulk-state coexists with protected 1d conducting edge-states. Owing to a unique topologically imposed…
We consider a quantum graph as a model of graphene in constant magnetic field and describe the density of states in terms of relativistic Landau levels satisfying a Bohr--Sommerfeld quantization condition. That provides semiclassical…
We consider graphene in the presence of external magnetic field and elastic deformations that cause emergent magnetic field. The total magnetic field results in the appearance of Landau levels in the spectrum of quasiparticles. In addition,…
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…

We analyze the phase diagram of the zeroth Landau level of bilayer graphene, taking into account the realistic effects of screening of the Coulomb interaction and the strong mixing between two degenerate sublevels. We identify robust…
In graphene, where the electron-electron scattering is dominant, electrons collectively act as a fluid. This hydrodynamic behaviour of charge carriers leads to exciting nonlinear phenomena such as solitary waves and shocks, among others. In…
A lattice model of spinless interacting electrons is used to formulate the Landau theory of the Fermi liquid to electron glass quantum phase transition. We demonstrate that the presence of additional random site energies does not affect the…

Graphene, a single free-standing sheet of graphite with honeycomb lattice structure, is a semimetal with carriers that have linear dispersion. A consequence of this dispersion is the absence of Wigner crystallization in graphene, since the…
