Boundary-condition-assisted chiral-symmetry protection of the zeroth Landau level on a two-dimensional lattice

A. Donís Vela, C. W. J. Beenakker

The massless two-dimensional Dirac equation in a perpendicular magnetic field B supports a B-independent "zeroth Landau level", a dispersionless zero-energy-mode protected by chira…

Luttinger liquid tensor network: sine versus tangent dispersion of massless Dirac fermions

V. A. Zakharov, S. Polla, A. Donís Vela +4

To apply the powerful many-body techniques of tensor networks to massless Dirac fermions one wants to discretize the Hamiltonian and construct a matrix-product-operator (…

Dynamical simulation of the injection of vortices into a Majorana edge mode

I. M. Flór, A. Donís-Vela, C. W. J. Beenakker +1

The chiral edge modes of a topological superconductor can transport fermionic quasiparticles, with Abelian exchange statistics, but they can also transport non-Abelian anyons: Edge…

Method to preserve the chiral-symmetry protection of the zeroth Landau level on a two-dimensional lattice

A. Donís Vela, G. Lemut, J. Tworzydło +1

Reflectionless Klein tunneling of Dirac fermions: Comparison of split-operator and staggered-lattice discretization of the Dirac equation

A. Donís Vela, G. Lemut, M. J. Pacholski +2

Massless Dirac fermions in an electric field propagate along the field lines without backscattering, due to the combination of spin-momentum locking and spin conservation. This phe…
