- Abstract: We discuss the emergence and manipulation of generalised Dirac cones in the
subradiant collective modes of quantum metasurfaces. We consider a collection
of single quantum emitters arranged in a honeycomb lattice with subwavelength
periodicity. While conventional honeycomb quantum metasurfaces host bound modes
that display Dirac cones at the K and K' points, we show that introducing
uniaxial anisotropy in the lattice results in modified dispersion relations.
These include the tilting of Dirac cones, which changes the local density of
states at the Dirac point from vanishing (type I) to diverging (types II and
III), the emergence of semi-Dirac points, with linear and quadratic dispersions
in orthogonal directions, and the anisotropic movement of Dirac cones away from
the K and K' points. Such energy dispersions can modify substantially the
dynamics of local probes, such as quantum emitters, to which they have been
shown to induce anisotropic, power-law interactions

We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians.
We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

We introduce a new family of quantum walks, said twisted, which admits as continuous limit, a generalized Dirac operator equipped with a dispersion term.
This quadratic term in the energy spectrum acts as an effective mass, leading to a regularization of the well known Fermion doubling problem.

We study localized Dirac cat states as carriers of qubits correlated by phase-space variables.
The intrinsic entanglement profile implied by the Dirac Hamiltonian is then investigated so as to shed a light on quantum states as carriers of qubits correlated by phase-space variables.
Our results show that the Dirac Wigner functions for cat states exhibit an almost maximized persistent mutual information profile.

We show how isotropic Dirac-photons can lead to non-exponential spontaneous emission as well as dissipation-less long-range emitter interactions.
In particular, we show how by changing the anisotropy of the lattice one can change both the spatial shape of the interactions as well as its coherent/incoherent nature.

This paper reports about the Wigner formalism for describing Dirac spinor structures through a covariant phase-space formulation.
For Dirac spinor Wigner operators decomposed into Poincar'e classes of $SU(2) otimes SU(2)$ spinor couplings, a definitive expression for quantum purity is identified.
Our results can be read as the first step in the systematic computation of the elementary information content of Dirac-like systems.

Graphene with honeycomb structure, being critically important in understanding physics of matter, exhibits exceptionally unusual half-integer quantum Hall effect.
These peculiar physics arise from the unique properties of Dirac cones which show high hole degeneracy, massless charge carriers and linear intersection of bands.
Here, we demonstrate a direct observation of the movement of Dirac cones from single-photon dynamics in photonic graphene under different biaxial strains.
