Ordered graphene has been extensively studied. In this paper we undertake a first density functional study of it topologically disordered analogues of graphene, in the form of a random network, consisting predominantly of hexagonal rings,…
In graphene growth, island symmetry can become lower than the intrinsic symmetries of both graphene and the substrate. First-principles calculations and Monte Carlo modeling explain the shapes observed in our experiments and earlier studies…
Goldstone modes in the amorphous solid state, resulting from the spontaneous breaking of translational symmetry due to random localisation of particles, are discussed. Starting from a microscopic model with quenched disorder, the broken…
Many nearby AGNs display a significant short-term variability. In this work we re-analyze photometric data of four active galactic nuclei observed by Kepler in order to study the flickering activity, having as main goal that of searching…
Graphene is a famous realization of elastic crystalline 2D membrane. Thermal fluctuations of a 2D membrane tend to destroy the long-range order in the system. Such fluctuations are stabilized by strong anharmonicity effects, which preserve…
A polycrystalline graphene consists of perfect domains tilted at angle {\alpha} to each other and separated by the grain boundaries (GB). These nearly one-dimensional regions consist in turn of elementary topological defects, 5-pentagons…
We study the atomic structure of twisted bilayer graphene, with very small mismatch angles ($\theta \sim 0.28^0$), a topic of intense recent interest. We use simulations, in which we combine a recently presented semi-empirical potential for…
The interplay between different types of disorder and electron-electron interactions in graphene planes is studied by means of Renormalization Group techniques. The low temperature properties of the system are determined by fixed points…
This paper focuses on the structural, electronic, and vibrational features of amorphous graphite [R. Thapa $\textit{et. al.}$, Phys. Rev. Lett. 128, 236402 (2022)]. The structure order in amorphous graphite is discussed and compared with…
Within a dynamical description of nuclear fragmentation, based on the liquid-gas phase transition scenario, we explore the relation between neutron-proton density fluctuations and nuclear symmetry energy. We show that, along the…
Graphene [1] and its bilayer have generated tremendous excitement in the physics community due to their unique electronic properties [2]. The intrinsic physics of these materials, however, is partially masked by disorder, which can arise…
Theoretical progress in graphene physics has largely relied on the application of a simple nearest-neighbor tight-binding model capable of predicting many of the electronic properties of this material. However, important features that…
For amorphous solids, it has been intensely debated whether the traditional view on solids, in terms of the ground state and harmonic low energy excitations on top of it, such as phonons, is still valid. Recent theoretical developments of…
The discovery of graphene, a single monolayer of graphite, has closed the discussion on stability of 2D crystals. Although thermal fluctuations of such crystals tend to destroy the long-range order in the system, the crystal can be…
When two graphene layers are rotated from AA or AB configuration by a small angle, the band structure changes dramatically. Numerical calculations have shown that, at certain discrete angles called magic angles, the low energy bands become…
Twisted graphene systems have draw significant attention due to the discoveries of various correlated and topological phases. In particular, recently the alternating twisted trilayer graphene is discovered to exhibit unconventional…
Stacking geometry in multilayer graphene (MLG) provides an interesting degree of freedom to engineer its electronic structure near the Fermi level, wherein the linear bands in single layer graphene could retain or evolve into parabolic or…
We study the phase diagram of a topological string-net type lattice model in the presence of geometrically frustrated interactions. These interactions drive several phase transitions that reduce the topological order, leading to a rich…
Amorphous solids manifest puzzling effects of mysterious degrees of freedom that give rise to a heat capacity and phonon scattering in great excess over what would be expected for a solid that has a unique vibrational ground state. Of…
So far the physics of moir\'e graphene bilayers at large, incommensurate rotation angles has been considered uninteresting. It has been held that the interlayer coupling in such structures is weak and the system can be thought of as a pair…
