Atomically thin moir\'e materials behave like elastic membranes where at very small twist angles, the van der Waals adhesion energy much exceeds the strain energy. In this ``marginal twist" regime, regions with low adhesion energy expand,…

A real-space method using generating integers is used to classify the possible moire patterns for two equal hexagonal lattices. The result is that the rotations that take (n,m) to (m,n) with n,m relatively prime form the fundamental moire…
