Mexican-hat dispersion of band electrons in two-dimensional materials attracts a lot of interest, mainly due to the Van Hove singularity of the density of states near the band edge. In this paper, we show that there is one more feature of…

We show that superconductivity can arise in semiconductors with a band in the shape of a Mexican hat when the chemical potential is tuned close to the band edge, but not intersecting the band, as long as interactions are sufficiently…
Dirac fermions interacting with a cylindrically symmetric quantum dot potential created in single and bilayer graphene are not confined but form quasi-bound states. The broadening of these quasi-bound states (i. e. the inverse of their…

Features below the first conductance plateau in ballistic quantum point contacts (QPCs) are often ascribed to electron interaction and spin effects within the single mode limit. In QPCs with a highly asymmetric geometry, we observe sharp…

Majorana bound states often occur at the end of 1D topological superconductor or at the $\pi$ Josephson junction mediated by a helical edge state. Validated by a new bulk invariant and an intuitive edge argument, we show the emergence of…
The valence band of a variety of few-layer, two-dimensional materials consists of a ring of states in the Brillouin zone. The energy-momentum relation has the form of a `Mexican hat' or a Rashba dispersion. The two-dimensional density of…
We report the prediction of quasi-bound states (resonant states with very long lifetimes) that occur in the eigenvalue continuum of propagating states for a wide region of parameter space. These quasi-bound states are generated in a quantum…
