We formulate a model of relativistic fermions moving in two Euclidean dimensions based on a tight-binding model of graphene. The eigenvalue spectrum of the resulting Dirac operator is solved numerically in smooth U(1) gauge field…
Carbon allotropes such as diamond, nano-tube, Fullerene, and Graphene, have unique lattice symmetries of crystal lattice, but these are topologically trivial. We have proposed a topologically-nontrivial allotrope, named Hopfene, which has…
This is a short review of two-dimensional Dirac fermions in graphene and similar systems such as boron nitride, quasi-2D organic salts $\alpha$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$, artificial graphene with cold atoms in optical lattices, etc. The emphasis…
In the continuum, a topological obstruction to the vanishing of the non-abelian anomaly in 2n dimensions is given by the index of a certain Dirac operator in 2n+2 dimensions, or equivalently, the index of a 2-parameter family of Dirac…
Fermions moving in a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice (graphene) have, at low energies, chiral symmetry. Generalizing this construction to four dimensions potentially provides fermions with chiral symmetry and only the minimal fermion…
We present the electronic properties of massless Dirac fermions characterized by geometry and topology on a graphene sheet in this chapter. Topological effects can be elegantly illuminated by the Atiyah-Singer index theorem. It leads to a…
Silicene, a sheet of silicon atoms in a honeycomb lattice, was proposed to be a new Dirac-type electron system similar as graphene. We performed scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy studies on the atomic and electronic properties…
Using the SU(5) symmetry of the 4D hyperdiamond and results on the study of 4D graphene given in "Four Dimensional Graphene" (L.B Drissi, E.H Saidi, M. Bousmina, CPM-11-01, Phys. Rev. D (2011)), we engineer a class of 4D lattice QCD…
We provide a novel setup for generalizing the two-dimensional pseudospin S=1/2 Dirac equation, arising in graphene's honeycomb lattice, to general pseudospin-S. We engineer these band structures as a nearest-neighbor hopping Hamiltonian…
Mimicking pristine 2D graphene, we revisit the BBTW model for 4D lattice QCD given in ref.[5] by using the hidden SU(5) symmetry of the 4D hyperdiamond lattice H_4. We first study the link between the H_4 and SU(5); then we refine the BBTW…
Some important features of the graphene physics can be reproduced by loading ultracold fermionic atoms in a two-dimensional optical lattice with honeycomb symmetry and we address here its experimental feasibility. We analyze in great…
The interface between two-dimensional (2D) crystals often forms a Moire superstructure that imposes a new periodicity, which is a key element in realizing complex electronic phases as evidenced in twisted bilayer graphene. A combined angle…
Recently, the concept of topological insulators has been generalized to topological semimetals, including three-dimensional (3D) Weyl semimetals, 3D Dirac semimetals, and 3D node-line semimetals. In particular, several compounds (e.g.,…
It is highly desirable to modify and improve the Dirac electron system of graphene for novel electronic properties and promising applications. For this purpose, we study 2D heterostructures consisting of graphene and monolayer TMDs by means…
We investigate the interplay between topological charge and the spectrum of the fermion matrix in lattice-QED_2 using analytic methods and Monte Carlo simulations with dynamical fermions. A new theorem on the spectral decomposition of the…
After the discovery of Dirac fermions in graphene, it has become a natural question to ask whether it is possible to realize Dirac fermions in other two-dimensional (2D) materials as well. In this work, we report the discovery of multiple…
We consider the 2D Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice, as a model for a single layer graphene sheet in the presence of screened Coulomb interactions. At half filling and weak enough coupling, we compute the free energy, the ground state…
We present numerical results for the 2-flavour Schwinger model with dynamical chiral lattice fermions. We insert an approximately chiral hypercube Dirac operator into the overlap formula to construct the overlap hypercube operator. This is…
We propose a class of graphene-based moir\'e systems hosting flat bands on kagome and honeycomb moir\'e superlattices. These systems are formed by stacking a graphene layer on a 2D substrate with lattice constant approximately $\sqrt{3}$…
We discuss topological aspects of electronic properties of graphene, including edge effects, with the tight-binding model on a honeycomb lattice and its extensions to show the following: (i) Appearance of the pairn of massless Dirac…
