In a Dirac semimetal, the conduction and valence bands contact only at discrete (Dirac) points in the Brillouin zone (BZ) and disperse linearly in all directions around these critical points. Including spin, the low energy effective theory…
We analyse the normalisable zero-modes of the Dirac operator on the Taub-NUT manifold coupled to an abelian gauge field with self-dual curvature, and interpret them in terms of the zero modes of the Dirac operator on the 2-sphere coupled to…

Considering our (3+1)-dimensional space-time as, in some way, discrete or l attice with a parameter $a=\lambda_P$, where $\lambda_P$ is the Planck length, we have investigated the additional contributions of lattice artifact monopoles to…
At the interface between two massless Dirac models with opposite helicity a paradoxical situation arises: A transversally impinging electron can seemingly neither be transmitted nor reflected, due to the locking between spin and momentum.…
