Phase transitions on the dark side of the Gross-Neveu model: Spontaneous symmetry breaking at repulsive coupling

Gabriel Osiander Rein, Fakher F. Assaad, Igor F. Herbut

Gross-Neveu model in 2+1 dimensions exhibits a continuous transition from gapless Dirac semimetal to the gapped quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator at a finite (attractive) coup…

Symplectic symmetry of quadratic-band-touching Hamiltonians in two dimensions

Igor F. Herbut, Samson C. H. Ling

The internal low-energy symmetry of the massless Lorentz-invariant Dirac Hamiltonian in dimensions is known to be , where is the number of two-component Dirac ferm…

Beyond one-loop calculation: Higher-order effects on Gross-Neveu-Yukawa tensorial criticality

SangEun Han, Igor F. Herbut

We study the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa field theory for the SO() symmetric traceless rank-two tensor order parameter coupled to Majorana fermions using the -expansion around upper…

Quantum multicriticality and emergent symmetry in Dirac systems with two order parameters at three-loop order

Max Uetrecht, Igor F. Herbut, Michael M. Scherer +2

Two-dimensional materials with interacting Dirac excitations can host quantum multicritical behavior near the phase boundaries of the semimetallic and two-ordered phases. We study…

Gross-Neveu-Yukawa SO(2) and SO(3) tensorial criticality

SangEun Han, Shouryya Ray, Igor F. Herbut

We investigate the relativistic SO(2)- and SO(3)-invariant Gross-Neveu-Yukawa field theories for real, rank-two, symmetric, traceless tensor order parameters coupled to $N_{\text{f…

Phases of three-dimensional -wave superconductors with two attractive interactions

Majid Kheirkhah, Igor F. Herbut

Three-dimensional -wave () superconducting state may result from Cooper pairing in channels with different angular momenta and spin, such as or . W…
