We derive a general relativistic Hamiltonian valid for both bound and scattering systems by reducing the four-component Dirac equation to a two-component Dirac-Pauli form. Unlike conventional approaches, our formulation includes first-order…
This work was firstly published in 1986 \cite{we}. No real two-dimensional object with the zero-gap quasi-relativistic spectrum was known in that time. Such an object is well known now: this is graphene. That is why we decided to present it…
The hyperfine interaction in the ground state of a hydrogen atom of assumed radius $R$ is proportional to $-1/R^3$, raising the question of why the hyperfine interaction does not lead to collapse of hydrogen, or positronium. We approach the…

At low densities, electrons confined to two dimensions in a delta-doped heterostructure can arrange themselves into self-consistent droplets due to disorder and screening effects. We use this observation to show that at low temperatures,…

The electromagnetic response of graphene in a magnetic field is studied, with particular emphasis on the quantum features of its ground state (vacuum). The graphene vacuum, unlike in conventional quantum Hall systems, is a dielectric medium…

The Dirac equation is solved for triangular and hexagonal graphene quantum dots for different boundary conditions in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. We analyze the influence of the dot size and its geometry on their energy…
The low energy excitations of graphene can be described by a massless Dirac equation in two spacial dimensions. Curved graphene is proposed to be described by coupling the Dirac equation to the corresponding curved space. This covariant…
