Bound electron pairs formed due to the peculiarities of the band dispersion of electrons in crystals attract much interest because they can carry charge and spin even in the absence of band conductivity. However, such an important parameter…
We show that two tight binding electrons that repel may form a bounded pair in two dimensions. The paired states form a band with energies that scale like the strength of the interaction potential. By applying an electric field we show that…

We consider the two-band Hubbard model, where electrons from different bands interact through an on-site one- and two-particle hybridization. The proposed Hamiltonian makes it possible to construct an effective theory and answer the…
Edge states reveal the nontrivial topology of energy band in the bulk. As localized states at boundaries, many-body edge states may obey a special symmetry that is broken in the bulk. When local particle-particle interaction is induced,…
We solve a two-body problem for electrons in a one-dimensional system to show that two-electron bound states can arise as a result of the image-potential-induced spin-orbit interaction (iSOI). The iSOI contributes an attractive component to…

We study two correlated electrons in a nearest neighbour tight- binding chain, with both on site and nearest neighbour interaction. Both the cases of parallel and antiparallel spins are considered. In addition to the free electron band for…
Based on the quantum two-body problem introduced in [arXiv:1604.06693] we consider bound pairs of electrons moving on the positive half-line. The analysis is motivated by the ground-breaking work of Cooper who identified the pairing of…
The interaction between an electron and an elastic wave is investigated for HgTe and InAs-GaSb quantum wells. The well-known Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang model, i.e., the $4\times 4$ model for a two-dimensional (2D) topological insulator (TI), is…
In a multiband Hubbard model the self-consistency relations for the two-body bound-state bands are in the form of a nonlinear eigenvalue problem. Assuming that the resultant eigenvectors form an orthonormal set, e.g., in the strong-binding…

We show that the bound electron pairs (BEPs) emerge in two-dimensional gated Rashba materials owing to the interplay of the pair spin-orbit interaction, produced by the Coulomb fields of interacting electrons, and the peculiarities of the…
We study a three-body system, formed by a light particle and two identical heavy dipoles, in two dimensions in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. We present the analytic light-particle wave function resulting from an attractive zero-range…
We study a system in which the quantum dynamics of electrons depend on the particle density in their neighborhood. For any on-site repulsive interaction, we show that the exact two-body and three-body ground states are bound states. We also…
