Spontaneous inversion symmetry breaking in graphene bilayers
Open accessAbstract
In a mean-field-theory treatment the ground state of a graphene bilayer spontaneously breaks inversion symmetry for arbitrarily weak electron-electron interactions when trigonal-warping terms in the band structure are ignored. We report on a perturbative renormalization-group calculation, which assesses the robustness of this instability, comparing with the closely related case of the charge-density-wave instability incorrectly predicted by mean-field theory in a one-dimensional electron gas. We conclude that spontaneous inversion symmetry breaking in graphene is not suppressed by quantum fluctuations but that, because of trigonal warping, it may occur only in high quality suspended bilayers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
