The investigation of electronic order-quantum phase interplay in kagome lattices commonly employs the extended Kagome-Hubbard model, where the critical parameters comprise on-site $(U)$ and intersite $(V)$ Coulomb interactions. In…
Using density functional theory calculations including an on-site Coulomb term, we explore electronic and possibly topologically nontrivial phases in $3d$ transition metal oxide honeycomb layers confined in the corundum structure…
We propose a two-orbital Hubbard model on an emergent honeycomb lattice to describe the low-energy physics of twisted bilayer graphene. Our model provides a theoretical basis for studying metal-insulator transition, Landau level degeneracy…
Recent years have seen the discovery of systems featuring fragile topological states. These states of matter lack certain protection attributes typically associated with topology and are therefore characterized by weaker signatures that…
We study the phase diagram of the extended Hubbard model on the kagome lattice at 1/3 filling. By combining a configuration interaction approach to an unrestricted Hartree-Fock, we construct an effective hamiltonian which takes the…
Electronic systems living on Archimedean lattices such as kagome and square-octagon networks are presently being intensively discussed for the possible realization of topological insulating phases. Coining the most interesting electronic…
Topological phases and modes, including pseudospin-Hall-selective edge transport and corner states, provide robust control of wave propagation and modal confinement in classical wave platforms. Under a tight-binding framework, we…
2D topological insulators promise novel approaches towards electronic, spintronic, and quantum device applications. This is owing to unique features of their electronic band structure, in which bulk-boundary correspondences enforces the…
We study spontaneous symmetry breaking in a system of spinless fermions in the Honeycomb lattice paying special emphasis to the role of an enlarged unit cell on time reversal symmetry broken phases. We use a tight binding model with nearest…
The low-energy theory of interacting electrons on graphene's two-dimensional honeycomb lattice is derived and discussed. In particular, the Hubbard model in the large-N limit is shown to have a semi-metal - antiferromagnetic insulator…
The recent observation of superconductivity in proximity to an insulating phase in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) at small `magic' twist angles has been linked to the existence of nearly-flat bands, which make TBG a fresh playground to…
Interactions between stacked two-dimensional (2D) atomic crystals can radically change their properties, leading to essentially new materials in terms of the electronic structure. Here we show that monolayers placed on an atomically flat…
We study the topological properties of a spin-orbit coupled Hofstadter model on the Kagome lattice. The model is time-reversal invariant and realizes a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological insulator as a result of artificial gauge fields. We develop…
In the last years, kagome materials received massive attention by virtue of being candidate hosts for a large variety of quantum phases: spin liquids, unconventional superconductivity, and topological phases of matter, to name the more…
Kagome metals offer a unique platform for investigating robust electron-correlation effects because of their lattice geometry, flat bands and multi-orbital nature. In the cases with active flat bands, recent theoretical studies have pointed…
We study the combined effects of lattice deformation, e-e interaction and spin-orbit coupling in a two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb lattice. We adopt different kinds of hopping modulation--generalized dimerization and a Kekule distortion--and…
The search for new topological materials and states of matter is presently at the forefront of quantum materials research. One powerful approach to novel topological phases beyond the thermodynamic space is to combine different…
We simulate the electronic and transport properties of metal/two-dimensional material/metal vertical heterostructures, with a focus on graphene, hexagonal boron nitride and two phases of molybdenum diselenide. Using density functional…
Electronic and structural properties of a 3D carbon allotrope made of Hopf-linked graphenes, which we call a Hopfene - a type of topological crystal, are examined by semi-empirical molecular-orbital and density-functional-theoretical…
Topological states of matter are robust quantum phases, characterised by propagating or localised edge states in an insulating bulk. Topological boundary states can be triggered by various mechanisms, for example by strong spin-orbit…
