The Landau bands of mirror symmetric 2D Dirac semi-metals (for example odd-layers of ABA-graphene) can be identified by their parity with respect to mirror symmetry. This symmetry facilitates a new class of counter-propagating Hall states…
Topological magnetic insulators host chiral gapless edge modes. In the presence of strong interaction effects, the spin of these modes may fractionalize. Studying a 2D array of coupled insulating spin-1/2 chains, we show how spatially…

Recently unusual integer quantum Hall effect was observed in graphene in which the Hall conductivity is quantized as $\sigma_{xy}=(\pm 2, \pm 6, \pm 10, >...) \times \frac{e^2}{h}$, where $e$ is the electron charge and $h$ is the Planck…
The Hall effects comprise one of the oldest but most vital fields in condensed matter physics, and they persistently inspire new findings, such as quantum Hall effects and topological phases of matter. The recently discovered nonlinear Hall…
We predict a nonlinear Hall effect in certain Weyl semimetals with broken inversion symmetry. When the energy dispersions about pairs of Weyl nodes are skewed -- the Weyl cones are "tilted" -- the concerted actions of the anomalous velocity…
