We investigate topological phase transitions for the Haldane and Kane-Mele model in a lattice with $p6$ symmetry, which consists of triangles and hexagons arranged in a two-dimensional geometry. For the Haldane model, which breaks…
For non-topological quantum materials, introducing defects can significantly alter their properties by modifying symmetry and generating a nonzero analytical index, thus transforming the material into a topological one. We present a method…
Quantum geometry of electronic wavefunctions results in fascinating topological phenomena. A prominent example is the intrinsic anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in which a Hall voltage arises in the absence of an applied magnetic field. The AHE…
Graphene, with its quantum Hall topological (Chern) number reflecting the massless Dirac particle, is shown to harbor yet another topological quantum number. This is obtained by combining Streda's general formula for the polarization…
Proximity effects resulting from depositing a graphene layer on a TMD substrate layer change the dynamics of the electronic states in graphene, inducing spin orbit coupling (SOC) and staggered potential effects. An effective Hamiltonian…
We present exact analytical and numerical results for the electronic spectra and the Friedel oscillations around a substitutional impurity atom in a graphene lattice. A chemical dopant in graphene introduces changes in the on-site potential…
Various types of topological defects in graphene are considered in the framework of the continuum model for long-wavelength electronic excitations, which is based on the Dirac--Weyl equation. The condition for the electronic wave function…
We show that, at sufficiently large strength of the long-range Coulomb interaction, a mass term breaking parity (so-called Haldane mass) is dynamically generated in the many-body theory of Dirac fermions describing the graphene layer. While…
This paper is focused on investigating the effects of a statistical interaction for graphene-like systems, providing Haldane-like properties for topologically trivial lattices. The associated self-energy correction yields an effective…
We study the effect of Haldane flux in the bilayer $\alpha$-$\mathcal{T}_3$ lattice system, considering possible non-equivalent, commensurate stacking configurations with a tight-binding formalism. The bilayer $\alpha$-$\mathcal{T}_3$…
We investigate possible phase transitions among the different quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) phases in a zigzag graphene ribbon under the influence of the exchange field. The effective tight-binding Hamiltonian for graphene is made up of the…
We study graphene with an adsorbed spin texture, where the localized spins create a periodic magnetic flux. The latter produces gaps in the graphene spectrum and breaks the valley symmetry. The resulting effective electronic model, which is…
In the presence of axial magnetic fields that can be realized in deliberately buckled monolayer graphene, quasi-relativistic Dirac fermions may find themselves in a variety of broken symmetry phases even for weak interactions. Through a…
We demonstrate a topological classification of vortices in three dimensional time-reversal invariant topological superconductors based on superconducting Dirac semimetals with an s-wave superconducting order parameter by means of a pair of…
We investigate the interaction between quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) phases hosted by two atomically thin hexagonal lattices and demonstrate the emergence of topological phases with large Chern numbers. Interlayer coupling between two…
In this paper we investigate the occurrence of quantum phase transitions in topological systems out of equi- librium. More specifically, we consider graphene with a sizable spin-orbit coupling, irradiated by circularly- polarized light. In…
We consider a model of Dirac fermions coupled to flexural phonons to describe a graphene sheet fluctuating in dimension $2+d$. We derive the self-consistent screening equations for the quantum problem, exact in the limit of large $d$. We…
We study the properties of dipolar fermions trapped in one-dimensional bichromatic optical lattices and show the existence of fractional topological states in the presence of strong dipole-dipole interactions. We find some interesting…
Topological aspects of graphene are reviewed focusing on the massless Dirac fermions with/without magnetic field. Doubled Dirac cones of graphene are topologically protected by the chiral symmetry. The quantum Hall effect of the graphene is…
Topological materials rely on engineering global properties of their bulk energy bands called topological invariants. These invariants, usually defined over the entire Brillouin zone, are related to the existence of protected edge states.…
