This article reviews the basic theoretical aspects of graphene, a one atom thick allotrope of carbon, with unusual two-dimensional Dirac-like electronic excitations. The Dirac electrons can be controlled by application of external electric and magnetic fields, or by altering sample geometry and/or topology. We show that the Dirac electrons behave in unusual ways in tunneling, confinement, and integer quantum Hall effect. We discuss the electronic properties of graphene stacks and show that they vary with stacking order and number of layers. Edge (surface) states in graphene are strongly dependent on the edge termination (zigzag or armchair) and affect the physical properties of nanoribbons. We also discuss how different types of disorder modify the Dirac equation leading to unusual spectroscopic and transport properties. The effects of electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions in single layer and multilayer graphene are also presented.

    Interfering two obliquely propagating surface acoustic waves forms a tunable acoustoelectric superlattice in 2D materials, enabling in-situ control of minibands, flat bands, and nontrivial valley Chern numbers in mass...

  3. Emergent Hall viscosity in the integer quantum Hall phases of graphene-like systems

    cond-mat.mes-hall 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Emergent Hall viscosity for integer quantum Hall phases in graphene is derived as a sum of geometric and electronic terms that depends on two topological invariants obtained via Green function Wigner-Weyl calculus.
