• Title: A note on degeneracy of excited energy levels in massless Dirac fermions
• Authors: Lucas Sourrouille,
• Abstract summary: We construct the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the massless Dirac-Weyl equation in the presence of magnetic flux $Phi$ localized in a restricted region of the plane. We find that the zero and first energy level has the same $N+1$ degeneracy, where $N$ is the integer part of $fracPhi2pi$.

• Abstract: We propose a mechanism to construct the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the massless Dirac-Weyl equation in the presences of magnetic flux $\Phi$ localized in a restricted region of the plane. Using this mechanism we analyze the degeneracy of the existed energy levels. We find that the zero and first energy level has the same $N+1$ degeneracy, where $N$ is the integer part of $\frac{\Phi}{2\pi}$. In addition, and contrary to what is described in the literature regarding graphene, we show that higher energy levels are $N+m$ degenrate, beign $m$ the level of energy. In other words, this implies an indefinite growth of degenerate states as the energy level grows.

  The total energy functional correctly dissociates the H-H bond and yields absolute errors of 0.002 $rA$, 0.19 eV, and 13 cm-1$ relative to experiment at the tight binding computational cost. The chemical bond formation is attributed to the Heitler-London resonance of quasi-orthogonal atomic states with no contributions from kinetic energy or charge accumulation in the bond.
