We investigated the magnetoresistance and the Hall effect in an organic massless Dirac fermion system $\alpha$-(BETS)$_2$I$_3$ under pressure. The Fermi energy of this system is slightly far away from the Dirac points, and thus the $\nu =1$…
To explain the low frequencies of quantum oscillations observed in lightly doped cuprates, we consider the two-dimension Hubbard model supplemented with the perpendicular magnetic field. For large Hubbard repulsions, the electron spectrum…
We study a single 2d Dirac fermion at finite density, subject to a quenched random magnetic field. At low energies and sufficiently weak disorder, the theory maps onto an infinite collection of 1d chiral fermions (associated to each point…
With a widely available magnetic field of 10 T, one can attain the quantum limit in bismuth and graphite. At zero magnetic field, these two elemental semi-metals host a dilute liquid of carriers of both signs. When the quantum limit is…
