Motivated by recent transport experiments, we theoretically study the quantum Hall effect in topological semimetal films. Owing to the confinement effect, the bulk subbands originating from the chiral Landau levels establish energy gaps…
2D materials are well-known to exhibit interesting phenomena due to quantum confinement. Here, we show that quantum confinement, together with structural anisotropy, result in an electric-field-tunable Dirac cone in 2D black phosphorus.…
Dirac semimetals provide a new platform for the quantum Hall effect at low magnetic fields. In the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling, a spin-split Landau level is expected to enhance the bulk quasiparticle excitation. Here we report…
Fascinating phenomena have been known to arise from the Dirac theory of relativistic quantum mechanics, which describes high energy particles having linear dispersion relations. Electrons in solids usually have non-relativistic dispersion…
Strong singularities in the electronic density of states amplify correlation effects and play a key role in determining the ordering instabilities in various materials. Recently high order van Hove singularities (VHSs) with diverging…
We report results of a study of (integer) quantum Hall transitions in a single or multiple Landau levels for non-interacting electrons in disordered two-dimensional systems, obtained by projecting a tight-binding Hamiltonian to…
Landau levels are the eigenstates of a charged particle in two dimensions under a magnetic field, and are at the heart of the integer and fractional quantum Hall effects, which are two prototypical phenomena showing topological features.…
The existence or not of Landau poles is one of the oldest open questions in non-asymptotic quantum field theories. We investigate the Landau pole issue in two condensed matter systems whose long-wavelength physics is described by…
The $\sigma$-$\omega$ model of nuclei is studied at leading order in the $1/N$ expansion thereby introducing the self consistent Hartree approximation, the Dirac sea corrections and the one fermion loop meson self energies in a unified way.…
The surface states of topological insulators, which behave as charged massless Dirac fermions, are studied in the presence of a quantizing uniform magnetic field. Using the method of D.H. Lee[1], analytical formula satisfied by the energy…
The collective electronic properties of various types of pseudospin-$1$ Dirac-cone materials with a flat band and finite bangaps in their energy spectra are the subject of our reported investigation. Specifically, we have calculated the…
Quantum materials (QMs) with strong correlation and non-trivial topology are indispensable to next-generation information and computing technologies. Exploitation of topological band structure is an ideal starting point to realize…
The dissipative response of a quantum system upon a time-dependent drive can be exploited as a probe of its geometric and topological properties. In this work, we explore the implications of such phenomena in the context of two-dimensional…
Based on the original combination of analytical methods, computer algebra tools and numerical calculations, proposed recently in Refs. [1]-[3], the non-perturbative vacuum polarization effects in the 2+1 D supercritical Dirac-Coulomb system…
The recent discovery of Dirac semimetals represents a new achievement in our fundamental understanding of topological states of matter. Due to their topological surface states, high mobility, and exotic properties associated with bulk Dirac…
The spectrum of massless Dirac electrons on the side surface of a three-dimensional weak topological insulator is significantly affected by whether the number of unit atomic layers constituting the sample is even or odd; it has a…
A partially filled Landau level (LL) hosts a variety of correlated states of matter with unique properties. The ability to control these phases requires tuning the effective electron interactions within a LL, which has been difficult to…
The problem of ultraviolet divergences is analysed in the quantum field theory. It was found that it has common roots with the problem of cosmological singularity. In the context of fibre bundles the second quantization method is…
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…
