We show that flat bands can be categorized into two distinct classes, that is, singular and nonsingular flat bands, by exploiting the singular behavior of their Bloch wave functions in momentum space. In the case of a singular flat band,…

Flat bands (FB) are strictly dispersionless bands in the Bloch spectrum of a periodic lattice Hamiltonian, recently observed in a variety of photonic and dissipative condensate networks. FB Hamiltonians are finetuned networks, still lacking…
Let $\mathtt{R}$ be a finite commutative chain ring with the maximal ideal $\gamma\mathtt{R}$ of nilpotency index $e\geq 2,$ and let $\check{\mathtt{R}}=\mathtt{R}/\gamma^{s}\mathtt{R}$ for some positive integer $ s< e.$ In this paper, we…

For a pair of polynomials with real or complex coefficients, given in any particular basis, the problem of finding their GCD is known to be ill-posed. An answer is still desired for many applications, however. Hence, looking for a GCD of…

We study flat bands and their topology in 2D materials with quadratic band crossing points (QBCPs) under periodic strain. In contrast to Dirac points in graphene, where strain acts as a vector potential, strain for QBCPs serves as a…
