If bilayer graphene is placed in a high perpendicular magnetic field, several quantum Hall plateaus are observed at low enough temperatures. Of these, the $\sigma_{xy}=4ne^2/h$ sequence ($n\neq0$) is explained by standard Landau…

We study the Haldane model under strain using a tight-binding approach, and compare the obtained results with the continuum-limit approximation. As in graphene, nonuniform strain leads to a time-reversal preserving pseudo-magnetic field…
