In the context of “flat superconductors”, the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) theory is naturally involved in the discussion, even if only indirectly. BKT physics is in fact necessary to allow for the (quasi-)long-range-order, otherwise prohibited by...

In sufficiently high magnetic fields, continuous electron bands are transformed into quantized Landau levels (LLs). Although the huge density and degeneracy of states inside the LLs seems at first glance to favor the interactions effects, the famous Kohn theorem [1]...

The Hat tiling, discovered in March this year, is the culmination of decades of mathematical research in aperiodic tilings. Unlike other quasicrystals, such as the Penrose tiling, it requires only a single type of tile to be assembled, the hat tile. In this talk I...

Flat bands in twisted graphene systems offers plethora of strongly correlated states, among these, correlated insulator, superconductor and chern insulator are to name of few. Twisted trilayer graphene has shown robust superconductivity which drastically deviates from...
