We investigate the low-energy scaling behavior of an interacting 3D Weyl semimetal in the presence of disorder. In order to achieve a renormalization group analysis of the theory, we focus on the effects of a short-ranged-correlated…

We demonstrate that in the presence of Coulomb interactions, electrons in graphene behave like a critical system, supporting power law correlations with interaction-dependent exponents. An asymptotic analysis shows that the origin of this…

When electrons populate a flat band their kinetic energy becomes negligible, forcing them to organize in exotic many-body states to minimize their Coulomb energy. The zeroth Landau level of graphene under magnetic field is a particularly…

We study the impact of electron-phonon interactions on the many-body instabilities of electrons on the honeycomb lattice and their interplay with repulsive local and non-local Coulomb interactions at charge neutrality. To that end, we…
