Honeycomb lattice can support electronic states exhibiting Dirac energy dispersion, with graphene as the icon. We propose to derive nontrivial topology by grouping six neighboring sites of honeycomb lattice into hexagons and enhancing the…

In this paper, we study the massive Dirac equation with the presence of the Morse potential in polar coordinate. The Dirac Hamiltonian is written as two second-order differential equations in terms of two spinor wavefunctions. Since the…

The equilibrium behavior of vortices in the classical two-dimensional (2D) XY model with uncorrelated random phase shifts is investigated. The model describes Josephson-Junction arrays with positional disorder, and has ramifications in a…

The discovery of topological phases in condensed matter systems has changed the modern conception of phases of matter. The global nature of topological ordering makes these phases robust and hence promising for applications. However, the…

The energy spectrum of massless Dirac fermions in graphene under two dimensional periodic magnetic modulation having square lattice symmetry is calculated. We show that the translation symmetry of the problem is similar to that of the…

Dirac-like Hamiltonians, linear in momentum $k$, describe the low-energy physics of a large set of novel materials, including graphene, topological insulators, and Weyl fermions. We show here that the inclusion of a minimal $k^2$ Wilson's…

We study the low-energy electronic transport across periodic extended defects in graphene. In the continuum low-energy limit, such defects act as infinitesimally thin stripes separating two regions where Dirac Hamiltonian governs the…

Particles hopping on a two-dimensional hyperbolic lattice feature unconventional energy spectra and wave functions that provide a largely uncharted platform for topological phases of matter beyond the Euclidean paradigm. Using real-space…

We introduce the notion of topological electronic states on random lattices in non-integer dimensions. By considering a class $D$ model on critical percolation clusters embedded in two dimensions, we demonstrate that these topological…

In this letter we study the Haldane model with on-site repulsive interactions at half-filling. We show that the mean-field Hamiltonian with magnetic order effectively modifies parameters in the Haldane Hamiltonian, such as sublattice energy…

Graphene in the quantum Hall regime exhibits a multi-component structure due to the electronic spin and chirality degrees of freedom. While the applied field breaks the spin symmetry explicitly, we show that the fate of the chirality SU(2)…

Haldane model is a noninteracting model for spinless fermions showing nontrivial topological properties. Effect of the electron-electron interaction on the topological phase poses an intriguing question. By means of the Hartree-Fock mean…

We calculate a topological invariant, whose value would coincide with the Chern number in case of integer quantum Hall effect, for fractional quantum Hall states. In case of Abelian fractional quantum Hall states, this invariant is shown to…

We show exactly that standard `invariants' advocated to define topology for non-interacting systems deviate strongly from the Hall conductance whenever the excitation spectrum contains zeros of the single-particle Green function, $G$, as in…

The control of condensed matter systems out of equilibrium by laser pulses allows us to investigate the system trajectories through symmetry-breaking phase transitions. Thus the evolution of both collective modes and single particle…

We develop a composite Dirac fermion theory for the fractional quantum Hall effects (QHE) near charge neutrality in graphene. We show that the interactions between the composite Dirac fermions lead to dynamical mass generation through…

Topological defects (e.g. pentagons, heptagons and pentagon-heptagon pairs) have been widely observed in large scale graphene and have been recognized to play important roles in tailoring the mechanical and physical properties of…

Two-dimensional (2D) materials display nanoscale dynamic ripples that significantly impact their properties. Defects within the crystal lattice are the elementary building blocks to tailor the material's morphology. While some studies have…

We study the topological characterization of the energy gaps in general two-dimensional quasiperiodic systems consisting of multiple periodicities, represented by twisted two-dimensional materials. We show that every single gap is uniquely…

We investigate spin and valley symmetry-broken fractional quantum Hall phases within a formalism that naturally extends the paradigm of quantum Hall ferromagnetism from integer to fractional quantum Hall states, allowing us to construct…
