Topological insulators represent a new quantum state of matter that are insulating in the bulk but metallic on the edge or surface. In the Dirac surface state, it is well-established that the electron spin is locked with the crystal…

It is proved that fermions can acquire the mass through the additional non-integrable exponential factor. For this propose the special vector potential associated with the spinor field was introduced. Such a vector potential has close…
