Chern insulators arguably provide the simplest examples of topological phases. They are characterized by a topological invariant and can be identified by the presence of protected edge states. In this article, we show that a local impurity…
Moir\'e systems have emerged in recent years as a rich platform to study strong correlations. Here, we will discuss a simple, experimentally feasible setup based on periodically strained graphene that reproduces several key aspects of…
We show that the flat bands in the chiral model of magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene remain exactly flat in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. This is shown by an exact mapping between the model and the lowest Landau level…
We study topological properties and the topological phase transitions therein for a semi-Dirac Haldane model on a honeycomb lattice in presence of an extended range (third neighbour) hopping. While in the absence of a third neighbour…
Starting from a minimal model for a 2D nodal loop semimetal, we study the effect of chiral mass gap terms. The resulting Dirac loop anomalous Hall insulator's Chern number is the phase winding number of the mass gap terms on the loop. We…
We study a new type of one-dimensional chiral states that can be created in bilayer graphene (BLG) by electrostatic lateral confinement. These states appear on the domain walls separating insulating regions experiencing the opposite gating…
The understanding of the Chern insulator and anomalous quantum Hall effect (AQHE) in terms of chiral edge states in confined systems is the first aim of the paper. The model we use consists in a diatomic square lattice with hopping to the…
We theoretically study the Andreev reflection (AR) in AA-stacked bilayer graphene/superconductor (AABG/SC) junction. AABG has a linear gapless energy band with two shifted Dirac cones and the electronic states are described by the cone…
We review chiral (Klein) tunneling in single-layer and bilayer graphene and present its semiclassical theory, including the Berry phase and the Maslov index. Peculiarities of the chiral tunneling are naturally explained in terms of…
Twisted bilayer graphene aligned with hexagonal boron nitride (TBG/hBN) hosts rich topological and correlated quantum phases, such as (fractional) Chern insulators, whose character is dictated by the topology of the moir\'{e} flat band.…
We systematically investigate how static symmetry-breaking perturbations and dynamic Floquet terms via a polarized light manipulate the topological phase transitions in the two-dimensional quadratic-band-crossing-point (QBCP) materials. The…
We study the half-filled Haldane-Holstein model, where a paradigmatic Chern insulator is coupled to fully dynamical phonons, and provide an unbiased characterization of how retarded electron-phonon interactions destabilize Chern topology.…
Topologically ordered phases are characterized by long-range quantum entanglement and fractional statistics rather than by symmetry breaking. First observed in a fractionally filled continuum Landau level, topological order has since been…
The Haldane model is the simplest yet most powerful topological lattice model exhibiting various phases, including the Dirac semimetal phase and the anomalous quantum Hall phase (also known as the Chern insulator). Although considered…
Fully taking into account of the honeycomb lattice structure, fractional quantum Hall states of graphene are considered by a pseudopotential projected into the n = 0 Landau band. By using a chirality as an internal degree of freedom, the…
The phase transition driven by electron correlations in a Chern insulator is investigated within the dynamical mean-field theory. The Chern insulator is described by the Haldane model and the electron correlations are incorporated by…
Recent discoveries of zero-field fractional Chern insulators in moir\'e materials have attracted intensive research interests. However, most current theoretical and experimental attempts focus on systems with low Chern number bands, in…
We propose a model of spin-polarized-current state for electrons in bilayer graphene. The model resolves the puzzles as revealed by experiments that (a) the energy gap $E_{\rm gap}$ of the insulating ground state at the charge neutrality…
In topological materials, dissipationless edge currents are protected against local defect scattering by the bulk inverted band structure and band gap. We propose that large uniaxial strain can effectively switch a 2D Chern insulator to a…
Local topological markers are used to characterize Chern insulators in the presence of spatial inhomogeneities, such as boundaries and disorder. In this paper, we study the local Chern marker in systems with partial translational symmetry.…
