The canonical understanding of quantum oscillation in metals is challenged by the observation of de Haas-van Alphen effect in an insulator, SmB$_{6}$ [Tan \emph{et al}, Science {\bf349}, 287 (2015)]. Based on a two-band model with inverted…

The Berry curvature characterizes one aspect of the geometry of quantum states. It materializes, among other consequences, as an anomalous velocity of wave packets. In non-Hermitian systems, wave packet dynamics is enriched by additional…

We demonstrate that flat bands with local Berry curvature arise naturally in chiral (ABC) multilayer graphene placed on a boron nitride (BN) substrate. The degree of flatness can be tuned by varying the number of graphene layers N. For N =…
