At a discrete set of magic angles, twisted bilayer graphene has been shown to host extraordinarily flat bands, correlated insulating states, unconventional superconductivity, and distinct Landau level degeneracies. In this work, we design a…

We analyse the splitting of exact flat bands in the chiral model of the twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) when the $AA'/BB'$ coupling of the full Bistritzer--MacDonald model is taken into account. The first-order perturbation caused by the…

We consider a configuration of three stacked graphene monolayers with commensurate twist angles $\theta_{12}/\theta_{23}=p/q$, where $p$ and $q$ are coprime integers with $0<p<|q|$ and $q$ can be positive or negative. We study this system…

Correlated insulators and superconductivity have been observed in "magic-angle" twisted bilayer graphene, when the nearly flat bands close to neutrality are partially filled. While a momentum-space continuum model accurately describes these…
