Dirac fermions in non-Hermitian magnetic fields: Zero modes and index theorem
Christopher A. Leong, Bitan Roy
In a Lorentz symmetric non-Hermitian (NH) Dirac theory, containing the canonical relativistic Hamiltonian accompanied by a masslike anti-Hermitian Dirac operator, when the associat…

Strained hyperbolic Dirac fermions: Zero modes, flat bands, and competing orders
Christopher A. Leong, Bitan Roy
Starting from the nearest-neighbor tight-binding model on {10,3} and {14,3} hyperbolic lattices that, for a uniform hopping amplitude, gives rise to emergent Dirac fermions on a cu…

Amplified magnetic catalysis in non-Hermitian Euclidean and hyperbolic Dirac liquids
Christopher A. Leong, Bitan Roy
Due to their iconic linearly vanishing density of states near the zero-energy, half-filled two-dimensional Dirac materials in flat Euclidean and negatively-curved hyperbolic spaces…
