We consider the pairing of electrons and holes due to their Coulomb attraction in two parallel, independently gated graphene layers, separated by a barrier. At weak coupling, there exist the BCS-like pair-condensed state. Despite the fact…
We investigate the possible binding configurations of pairs of C60 molecules when pushed against each other. Tersoff potential, which represents intramolecular interactions well, has been used to calculate potential energies. We begin…
We extend the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model of polyacetylene to C_{60} and C_{70} molecules, and solve numerically. The calculations of the undoped systems agree well with the known results. When the system (C_{60} or C_{70}) is doped with one…
Carbon is the most important chemical element and the theoretical study of its new allotropes can be of great interest. In this study, regular dodecahedron (dodecahedrane) oligomers (n = 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13) by extending the dodecahedrane…
We study the electronic states of giant single-shell and the recently discovered nested multi-shell carbon fullerenes within the tight-binding approximation. We use two different approaches, one based on iterations and the other on…
We give a new, short proof of the regularity away from the nuclei of the electronic density of a molecule obtained in [1,2]. The new argument is based on the regularity properties of the Coulomb interactions underlined in [3,4] and on…

Conventionally, the Ih symmetry of fullerene C60 is accepted which is supported by numerous calculations. However, this conclusion results from the consideration of the molecule electron system, of its odd electrons in particular, in a…
The properties of low-mass dark matter (DM) halos appear to be remarkably diverse relative to cold, collisionless DM predictions, even in the presence of baryons. We show that self-interacting DM (SIDM) can simultaneously explain…

Results are reported for the $f$-electron intermetallic CeAuAl$_4$Ge$_2$, where the atomic arrangement of the cerium ions creates the conditions for geometric frustration. Despite this, magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal that the…
