Interaction driven symmetry breaking in a metallic (doped) Dirac system can manifest in the spontaneous gap generation at the nodal point buried below the Fermi level. Across this transition linear conductivity remains finite making its…

The topological nodal-line semimetal state, serving as a fertile ground for various topological quantum phases, where a topological insulator, Dirac semimetal, or Weyl semimetal can be realized when the certain protecting symmetry is…

Within the framework of linear response theory, we theoretically investigated the interband longitudinal optical conductivities (LOCs) in two-dimensional (2D) tilted Dirac bands using a tight-binding (TB) model, incorporating the effects of…

We construct three-orbital tight-binding models describing single-component molecular conductors [Pt(dmdt)$_2$] and [Ni(dmdt)$_2$] using first-principles calculations. We show that [Ni(dmdt)$_2$] is a Dirac nodal line system with highly…

We present an accurate ab initio tight-binding model, capable of describing the dynamics of Dirac points in tunable honeycomb optical lattices following a recent experimental realization [L. Tarruell et al., Nature 483, 302 (2012)]. Our…

Nodal line semimetals, a class of topological quantum materials, exhibit a variety of novel phenomena due to their properties, such as bands touching on a one-dimensional line or a ring in the Brillouin zone and drumhead-like surface…

We reexamine the existence and stability conditions of Dirac points between valence and conduction bands of 3/4 filled $\alpha$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ conducting plane. We consider the usual nearest neigbhor tight binding model with the seven…

We consider the relationship between the tight-binding Hamiltonian of the two-dimensional honeycomb lattice of carbon atoms with nearest neighbor hopping only and the 2+1 dimensional Hamiltonian of quantum electrodynamics which follows in…

As a new type of quantum matter, Dirac node line (DNL) semimetals are currently attracting widespread interest in condensed matter physics and material science. The DNL featured by a closed line consisting of linear band crossings in the…

Strongly correlated physics arises from electron-electron scattering within partially filled orbitals. Organic molecules in open-shell configurations are therefore good candidates to exhibit many-body effects. We focus on electron transport…

In this paper we present a paradigmatic tight-binding model for single-layer as well as for multi-layered semiconducting MoS$_2$ and similar transition metal dichalcogenides. We show that the electronic properties of multilayer systems can…

Dirac points lie at the heart of many fascinating phenomena in condensed matter physics, from massless electrons in graphene to the emergence of conducting edge states in topological insulators [1, 2]. At a Dirac point, two energy bands…

We discuss how to construct a tight binding model Hamiltonan for the simplest possible solid, composed of hydrogen-like atoms. A single orbital per atom is not sufficient because the on-site electron-electron repulsion mixes in higher…

A continuous deformation of a Hamiltonian possessing at low energy two Dirac points of opposite chiralities can lead to a gap opening by merging of the two Dirac points. In two dimensions, the critical Hamiltonian possesses a semi-Dirac…

Motivated by the recent discovery of a new family of Chromium based superconductors, we consider a two-band model, where a band of electrons dispersing only in one direction interacts with a band of electrons dispersing in all three…

We investigated the precise crystal structures and electronic states in a quasi-two-dimensional molecular conductor ${\alpha}$-(BETS)$_2$I$_3$ at ambient pressure. The electronic resistivity of this molecular solid shows metal-to-insulator…

Nodal-line semimetals are topological phases where the conduction and the valence bands cross each other along one-dimensional lines in the Brillouin zone, which are symmetry protected by either spatial symmetries or time-reversal symmetry.…

Owing to their chiral cubic structure, exotic multifold topological excitations have been predicted and recently observed in transition metal silicides like $\beta$-RhSi. Herein, we report that the topological character of RhSi is also…

We investigate the quasi-particle and transport properties of a model describing interacting Dirac and Weyl semimetals in the presence of local Hubbard repulsion $U$, where we explicitly include a deviation from the linearity of the…

In two-dimensional materials electronic band contacts often give non-trivial contribution to materials topological properties. Besides band contacts at high-symmetry points (HSP) in the Brillouin zone (BZ), like those in graphene, there are…
