The control over light propagation and localization in photonic crystals offers wide applications from sensing and on-chip routing to lasing and quantum light-matter interfaces. While in electronic crystals magnetic fields can be used to…

Ultracold atoms in optical lattices serve as a tool to model different physical phenomena appearing originally in condensed matter. To study magnetic phenomena one needs to engineer synthetic fields as atoms are neutral. Appropriately…

The magnetization process of a frustrated spin-1/2 spin-dimer model on a square lattice is investigated by means of a sign-problem-free quantum Monte Carlo algorithm developed recently. Rich field-induced quantum phases are discovered. We…

The strain induced pseudo-magnetic field in supported graphene deposited on top of a nanostructured substrate is investigated by using atomistic simulations. Step, elongated trench, one dimensional barrier, spherical bubbles, Gaussian bump…

We demonstrate that circular graphene ring under a shear stress displays strong pseudo-magnetic fields. We calculate the pseudo-magnetic field both from continuum elasticity theory as well as molecular dynamics simulations. Stable wrinkles…

Half-integer quantized flux vortices appear in honeycomb lattices when the signs of an odd number of couplings around a plaquette are inverted. We show that states trapped at these vortices can be isolated by applying inhomogeneous strain…

We theoretically study Landau quantization of itinerant Majorana quasiparticles induced by lattice strain in a Kitaev spin liquid with Majorana Fermi surfaces. We consider the isotropic spin-1/2 Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice with a…

Elastic strain can displace the massless Dirac fermions in monolayer graphene in a space-dependent fashion, similar to the effect of an external magnetic field, thus giving rise to Landau quantization. We here show that the strain-induced…

The degeneracy and spatial support of pseudo-Landau levels (pLLs) in strained honeycomb lattices systematically depends on the geometry -- for instance, in hexagonal and rectangular flakes the 0th pLL displays a twofold increased…

The real magnetic fields (MFs) acting on the graphene can induce flat real Landau levels (LLs). As an analogy, strains in graphene can produce significant pseudo MFs, triggering the appearance of dispersive pseudo LLs. By analyzing the…

We have numerically investigated whether or not a mean-field theory of spin textures generate fictitious flux in the doped two dimensional $t-J$-model. First we consider the properties of uniform systems and then we extend the investigation…

Motivated by theory and experiments on strain induced pseudo-Landau levels (LLs) of Dirac fermions in graphene and topological materials, we consider its extension for Bogoliubov quasiparticles (QPs) in a nodal superconductor (SC). We show,…

One of the intriguing characteristics of honeycomb lattices is the appearance of a pseudo-magnetic field as a result of mechanical deformation. In the case of graphene, the Landau quantization resulting from this pseudo-magnetic field has…

Applying time-periodic modulations is routinely used to control and design synthetic matter in quantum-engineered settings. In lattice systems, this approach is explored to engineer band structures with non-trivial topological properties,…

A kagome lattice is composed of corner-sharing triangles arranged on a honeycomb lattice such that each honeycomb bond hosts a kagome site while each kagome triangle encloses a honeycomb site. Such close relation implies that the two…

Slowly varying nonuniform strains of non-magnetic wave propagating media with honeycomb symmetry induce an effective- or pseudo-magnetic field, a phenomenon observed first in graphene, and later in photonic crystals and other physical…

The remarkable properties of graphene are inherent to its 2D honeycomb lattice structure. Its low dimensionality, which makes it possible to rearrange the atoms by applying an external force, offers the intriguing prospect of mechanically…

We employ an effective-field theory with correlations in order to study the phase diagram and ground-state magnetizations of a selectively diluted Ising antiferromagnet on triangular and honeycomb lattices. Dilution of different sublattices…

Graphene is a powerful playground for studying a plethora of quantum phenomena. One of the remarkable properties of graphene arises when it is strained in particular geometries and the electrons behave as if they were under the influence of…

We study tunneling across a strain-induced superlattice in graphene. In studying the effect of applied strain on the low-lying Dirac-like spectrum, both a shift of the Dirac points in reciprocal space, and a deformation of the Dirac cones…
