Motivated by recent experimental observations of correlated metallic phases and superconductivity in rhombohedral trilayer graphene (RTG), we perform an unbiased study of electronic ordering instabilities in hole-doped RTG. Specifically, we…
We investigate the dynamical breakdown of the chiral symmetry in the theory of Dirac fermions in graphene with long-range Coulomb interaction. We analyze the electron-hole vertex relevant for the dynamical gap generation in the ladder…
Spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry is investigated in the Hamiltonian approach to QCD in Coulomb gauge. The quark wave functional is determined by the variational principle using an ansatz which goes beyond the commonly used BCS-type…
By transforming from the pure-spin-orbital ($t_{\rm 2g}$) basis to the spin-orbital entangled pseudo-spin-orbital basis, the pseudo-spin rotation symmetry of the different Coulomb interaction terms is investigated under SU(2) transformation…
The long standing controversy concerning the effect of electron - electron interaction on the electrical conductivity of an ideal graphene sheet is settled. Performing the calculation directly in the tight binding approach without the usual…
We analyze the inelastic electron-electron scattering in undoped graphene within the Keldysh diagrammatic approach. We demonstrate that finite temperature strongly affects the screening properties of graphene, which, in turn, influences the…
The spectrum of $\bar q q$ mesons in a model where the only interaction is a linear Coulomb-like instantaneous confining potential is studied. The single-quark Green function as well as the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking are obtained…
In correlated electron systems the metallic character of a material can be strongly suppressed near an integer concentration of conduction electrons as Coulomb interactions forbid the double occupancy of local atomic orbitals. While the…
We obtain the rich phase diagrams in the Hubbard model on the triangular Kagom\'e lattice as a function of interaction, temperature and asymmetry, by combining the cellular dynamical mean-field theory with the continuous time quantum Monte…
The quantum Hall states of graphene have a filled Dirac sea of Landau levels. The short ranged SU(4) symmetry breaking interactions can induce a staggered polarization of the sea of Dirac-Landau levels. We study this effect in the extended…
Lightly-doped rhombohedral multilayer graphene has recently emerged as one of the most promising material platforms for exploring electronic phases driven by strong Coulomb interactions and non-trivial band topology. This review highlights…
Coulomb integrals, i.e., matrix elements of bare or screened Coulomb interaction between one-electron orbitals, are fundamental objects in many approaches developed to tackle the challenging problem of calculating the electronic structure…
We study the effects that ripples induce on the electrical and magnetic properties of graphene. The variation of the interatomic distance created by the ripples translates in a modulation of the hopping parameter between carbon atoms. A…
We study the ground state of $N$ weakly interacting electrons (with $N\le 10$) in a two-dimensional parabolic quantum dot with strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Using dimensionless parameters for the Coulomb interaction, $\lambda\lesssim…
The criteria for strong correlations on surfaces of three-dimensional topological insulators are discussed. Usually, the Coulomb repulsion at such surfaces is too weak for driving a phase transition to a strongly correlated regime. I…
We study theoretically the effect of spin-orbit coupling and sublattice asymmetry in graphene on the spin polarization of photoelectrons. We show that sublattice asymmetry in graphene not only opens a gap in the band structure but in case…
In a graphene Landau level (LL), strong Coulomb interactions and the fourfold spin/valley degeneracy lead to an approximate SU(4) isospin symmetry. At partial filling, exchange interactions can spontaneously break this symmetry, manifesting…
Multilayer graphene systems with a rhombohedral stacking order harbor nearly flat bands in their single-particle spectrum. We propose ansatz states to describe the surface-localized states of flat band electrons. The absence of kinetic…
The stability of ferromagnetism at the surface at finite temperatures is investigated within the strongly correlated Hubbard model on a semi-infinite lattice. Due to the reduced surface coordination number the effective Coulomb correlation…
The density of states of graphene has Van Hove singularities that can be reached by chemical doping and have already been explored in photoemission experiments. We show that in the presence of Coulomb interactions the system at the Van Hove…
