We revisit the localized Wannier state description of the twisted bilayer graphene, focusing on the chiral limit. We provide a simple method for constructing such 2D exponentially localized -- yet valley polarized -- Wannier states,…
We review analytical and numerical studies of correlated insulating states in twisted bilayer graphene, focusing on real-space lattice models constructions and their unbiased quantum many-body solutions. We show that by constructing…
Twisted bilayer graphene (TBLG) has emerged as an important platform for studying correlated phenomena, including unconventional superconductivity, in two-dimensional systems. The complexity of the atomic-scale structures in TBLG has made…
We develop an effective extended Hubbard model to describe the low-energy electronic properties of the twisted bilayer graphene. By using the Bloch states in the effective continuum model and with the aid of the maximally localized…
Monolayer graphene placed with a twist on top of AB-stacked bilayer graphene hosts topological flat bands in a wide range of twist angles. The dispersion of these bands and gaps between them can be efficiently controlled by a perpendicular…
The newly realized twisted graphene systems such as twisted bilayer graphene (TBG), twisted double bilayer graphene (TDBG), and twisted trilayer graphene (TTG) have attracted widespread theoretical attention. Therefore, a simple and…
Bands with non-trivial topological indices have a topological obstruction preventing them from being represented by exponentially localized Wannier states. Here, we propose a procedure to construct exponentially localized Wannier functions…
We introduce an approach to derive realistic Coulomb interaction terms in free standing layered materials and vertical heterostructures from ab-initio modelling of the corresponding bulk materials. To this end, we establish a combination of…
One- and two-dimensional bilayer systems are examples of ultra-tunable quantum materials that are considered as the basis for the new generation of electronic and photonic devices. Here we develop a general theory of the electron band…
The recently introduced classification of two-dimensional insulators in terms of topological crystalline invariants has been applied so far to "obstructed" atomic insulators characterized by a mismatch between the centers of the electronic…
We argue that various kinds of topological insulators (TIs) can be insightfully characterized by an inspection of the charge centers of the hybrid Wannier functions, defined as the orbitals obtained by carrying out a Wannier transform on…
We construct a heavy fermion representation for twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) systems. Two local orbitals (per spin/valley) are analytically found, which are exactly the maximally localized zero modes of the continuum Hamiltonian near the…
Despite much theoretical work, developing a comprehensive ab initio model for twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) has proven challenging due to the inherent trade-off between accurately describing the band structure and incorporating the…
We propose a method for studying the strong interaction regimes in twisted bilayer graphene using hybrid Wannier functions, that are Wannier-like in one direction and Bloch-like in the other. We focus on the active bands as given by the…
Since the discovery of superconductivity and correlated insulator at fractional electron fillings in the twisted bilayer graphene, most theoretical efforts have been focused on describing this system in terms of an effective extended…
With its monoelemental composition, various crystalline forms and an inherently strong spin-orbit coupling, bismuth has been regarded as an ideal prototype material to expand our understanding of topological electronic structures. In…
We build symmetry adapted maximally localized Wannier states, and construct the low energy tight binding model for the four narrow bands of the twisted bilayer graphene. We do so when the twist angle is commensurate, near the `magic' value,…
We investigate the interplay of band structure topology and localization properties of Wannier functions. To this end, we extend a recently proposed compressed sensing based paradigm for the search for maximally localized Wannier functions…
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…
Topological flat bands at the Fermi level offer a promising platform to study a variety of intriguing correlated phase of matter. Here we present band engineering in the twisted orbital-active bilayers with spin-orbit coupling. The symmetry…
