We extensively study the localization and the quantum Hall effect in the Hofstadter butterfly, which emerges in a two-dimensional electron system with a weak two-dimensional periodic potential. We numerically calculate the Hall conductivity…
Motivated by recent experimental attempts to detect the Hofstadter butterfly, we numerically calculate the Hall conductivity in a modulated two-dimensional electron system with disorder in the quantum Hall regime. We identify the critical…
Motivated by the recent experiments on periodically modulated, two dimensional electron systems placed in large transversal magnetic fields, we investigate the interplay between the effects of disorder and periodic potentials in the integer…
Electrons on a two-dimensional (2$d$) lattice which is exposed to a strong uniform magnetic field show intriguing physical phenomena. The spectrum of such systems exhibits a complex (multi-)band structure known as Hofstadter's butterfly.…
We investigate the effect that density-wave states have on the Hofstadter Butterfly. We first review the problem of the $d$-density wave on a square lattice and then numerically solve the $d$-density wave problem when an external magnetic…
We discuss the relationship between the quantum Hall conductance and a fractal energy band structure, Hofstadter's butterfly, on a square lattice under a magnetic field. At first, we calculate the Hall conductance of Hofstadter's butterfly…
Energy bands of electrons in a square lattice potential threaded by a uniform magnetic field exhibit a fractal structure known as the Hofstadter butterfly. Here we study a Fermi gas in a 2D optical lattice within a linear cavity with a tilt…
We have studied the revival of Hofstadter butterfly due to the competition between disorder and electronic interaction using mean field approximation of unrestricted Hartree Fock method at zero temperature for two dimensional square and…
Electrons on the lattice subject to a strong magnetic field exhibit the fractal spectrum of electrons, which is known as the Hofstadter butterfly. In this work, we investigate unconventional superconductivity in a three-dimensional…
The two-dimensional antiferromagnetic S=1/2 Heisenberg model with random bond dilution is studied using quantum Monte Carlo simulation at the percolation threshold (50% of the bonds removed). Finite-size scaling of the staggered structure…
For a three-dimensional lattice in magnetic fields we have shown that the hopping along the third direction, which normally tends to smear out the Landau quantization gaps, can rather give rise to a fractal energy spectram akin to…
We investigate the effect of structural distortion on bond percolation in simple cubic and body-centered cubic lattices using extensive Monte Carlo simulations. Distortion is introduced through controlled random displacements of lattice…
The two-dimensional antiferromagnetic S=1/2 Heisenberg model with random site dilution is studied using quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Ground state properties of the largest connected cluster on L*L lattices, with L up to 64, are…
We study the effect of interactions on the Hofstadter butterfly of the honeycomb lattice. We show that the interactions induce charge ordering that breaks the translational and rotational symmetries of the system. These phase transitions…
The topological properties of the quantum Hall effect in a crystalline lattice, described by Chern numbers of the Hofstadter butterfly quantum phase diagram, are deduced by using a geometrical method to generate the structure of…
Spinless, interacting electrons on a finite size triangular lattice moving in an extremely strong perpendicular magnetic field are studied and compared with the results on a square lattice. Using a Falicov-Kimball model, the effects of the…
The far-infrared absorption of a two-dimensional electron gas with a square-lattice modulation in a perpendicular constant magnetic field is calculated self-consistently within the Hartree approximation. For strong modulation and short…
We give a perspective on the Hofstadter butterfly (fractal energy spectrum in magnetic fields), which we have shown to arise specifically in three-dimensional(3D) systems in our previous work. (i) We first obtain the `phase diagram' on a…
We investigate a finite two-dimensional system in the presence of external magnetic field. We discuss how the energy spectrum depends on the system size, boundary conditions and Coulomb repulsion. On one hand, using these results we present…
The electronic spectrum of a two-dimensional square lattice in a perpendicular magnetic field has become known as the Hofstadter butterfly [Hofstadter, Phys. Rev. B 14, 2239 (1976).]. We have calculated quasi-one-dimensional analogs of the…
