EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Exact expression for the Berry connection in the projection gauge

Trey Cole and David Vanderbilt

Phys. Rev. B 113, 245106 (2026) - Published 1 June, 2026

The Berry connection underlies all of quantum geometry, but suffers from a gauge freedom that frequently impedes practical calculations. A common solution, often used in Wannier construction, fixes the gauge via projection onto localized trial functions, with the Berry connection computed by finite differences in reciprocal space. Here, the authors derive an exact, closed-form expression for the Berry connection in the projection gauge, thereby avoiding finite differences and allowing numerically stable calculations of quantities such as the Chern-Simons axion angle.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Theory of relaxation and its effects on the electronic structure in twisted systems

Junxi Yu, Bingbing Wang, and Cheng-Cheng Liu

Phys. Rev. B 113, 245118 (2026) - Published 8 June, 2026

Here, the authors present an analytical and physically transparent theory of lattice relaxation in twisted systems. They show how the balance between intralayer elasticity and interlayer adhesion determines the relaxation pattern, and how this pattern can be analytically embedded into moiré electronic Hamiltonians. The work reveals how relaxation reshapes flat bands and shifts topological transitions toward experimentally relevant twist angles.

Dirac quantum criticality in twisted double bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides

Jan Biedermann and Lukas Janssen

Phys. Rev. B 113, 245123 (2026) - Published 11 June, 2026

Quantum criticality involving Dirac fermions has long been studied theoretically but has remained difficult to access experimentally. Here, the authors predict that twisted double bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides, such as WSe $_{2}$ , host a Dirac quantum critical point accessible by tuning the twist angle or applying uniaxial pressure. The semimetal-to-insulator transition is continuous and governed by Gross-Neveu-Heisenberg criticality with emergent Lorentz symmetry.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Lieb-Robinson causality and non-Fermi liquids

Subham Dutta Chowdhury, Aditya Hebbar, and Sean A. Hartnoll

Phys. Rev. B 113, 245125 (2026) - Published 12 June, 2026

Here, the authors show that the Lieb-Robinson causality bound, a fundamental result in quantum lattice physics, implies a first-principles and model-independent bound on certain non-Fermi liquid coupling constants. The work demonstrates that methods from the modern S-matrix bootstrap in high-energy physics — in particular, analyticity constraints in both the complex energy and momentum planes — can be adapted to condensed matter lattice models.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Exceptional horns in $n$ -root graphene and Lieb photonic ring lattices

A. M. Marques, D. Viedma, V. Ahufinger, and R. G. Dias

Phys. Rev. B 113, 245136 (2026) - Published 17 June, 2026

The authors present here $n$ th‑root versions of graphene and the Lieb lattice, built from unidirectional coupling loops. Dirac points turn into exceptional horns featuring sublinear $| q |^{1 / n}$ scaling, and Landau levels exhibit $ϕ^{1 / (2 n)}$ flux dependence. Extra zero‑energy flat bands from sublattice imbalance further enrich the exceptional topology. A realistic photonic ring design using tailored gain and loss demonstrates how these models can be realized experimentally.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Transformer-based operator learning framework for self-energy in strongly correlated systems

Yuanran Zhu, Peter Rosenberg, Zhen Huang, Hardeep Bassi, Chao Yang, and Shiwei Zhang

Phys. Rev. B 113, 245139 (2026) - Published 22 June, 2026

Here, the authors introduce a Transformer-based framework for learning the electronic self-energy in strongly correlated systems. A distinctive feature of the approach is the use of complementary, readily generated training datasets spanning weak-, intermediate-, and strong-coupling regimes. The dimension-agnostic Transformer architecture enables system-size generalization, allowing self-energy operators learned from small systems to be naturally extended to much larger ones. Applied to the Hubbard model, the framework accurately captures the metal-to-insulator transition.

Kondo effect in ferromagnetic quantum critical ${CeRh}_{6} {Ge}_{4}$

Martin Sundermann, Joe D. Thompson, Eric D. Bauer, Chun-Fu Chang, Sheng-Huai Chen, Chang-Yang Kuo, Liu Hao Tjeng, Gertrud Zwicknagl, and Andrea Severing

Phys. Rev. B 113, 245149 (2026) - Published 29 June, 2026

The nature of cerium’s 4 $f$ electron is key to understanding the mechanism of pressure-induced quantum criticality in the heavy-fermion ferromagnet CeRh $_{6}$ Ge $_{4}$ . Combining core-level photoemission and polarized x-ray absorption spectroscopy with simulations based on the single-impurity Anderson model, the authors demonstrate here that Kondo hybridization admixes higher-lying crystal field states into a multiorbital ground state with a 4 $f$ occupancy n $_{f}$ ~ 0.9, which also accounts for the dynamical spin response. The results establish the importance of Kondo hybridization and the resulting multiorbital ground state as essential components for a model of quantum criticality.

Dichotomy theorem separating complete integrability and nonintegrability of isotropic spin chains

Naoto Shiraishi and Mizuki Yamaguchi

Phys. Rev. B 113, L241111 (2026) - Published 9 June, 2026

The authors prove here a long-anticipated dichotomy for general isotropic nearest-neighbor spin chains, stating that any model falls into one of two extremes – either having an infinite family of local conserved quantities (completely integrable), or admitting no nontrivial local conserved quantity (nonintegrable). This rules out intermediate models with only finitely many local conserved quantities. The authors also provide a simple criterion for deciding which case holds, greatly reducing the work needed to diagnose integrability.

Interplay between many-body correlations, strain, and lattice relaxation in twisted bilayer graphene

Lorenzo Crippa, Gautam Rai, Dumitru Călugăru, Haoyu Hu, Jonah Herzog-Arbeitman, B. Andrei Bernevig, Roser Valentí, Giorgio Sangiovanni, and Tim Wehling

Phys. Rev. B 113, L241112 (2026) - Published 17 June, 2026

Here, the authors explain a set of experimental features that, while ubiquitously observed in twisted bilayer graphene samples, have so far eluded a unified theoretical description. A broad range of spectral, response, and thermodynamic properties in twisted bilayer graphene is accurately described microscopically and traced to the interplay of electronic correlations, lattice strain, and structural relaxation. The results are in excellent agreement with multiple recent experiments including scanning tunneling and quantum twisting microscopy experiments.

Controlled pairing symmetries in a Fermi-Hubbard ladder with band flattening

João P. Mendonça, S. Biswas, M. Dziurawiec, U. Bhattacharya, K. Jachymski, M. Aidelsburger, M. Lewenstein, M. M. Maśka, and T. Grass

Phys. Rev. B 113, L241119 (2026) - Published 24 June, 2026

The competition between interactions in systems with slow electrons can drive unusual collective behavior. Here, the authors study a microscopic ladder model featuring both diagonal hopping pathways and complex loop-like electron exchange interactions. They demonstrate that while both mechanisms independently suppress ordinary metallic behavior, they stabilize completely distinct spatial patterns of electron pairing. These findings offer a theoretical framework for engineering specific superconducting states by tuning the competition between pairing mechanisms in platforms like twisted bilayer graphene or cold atoms.

LETTER

Theory for lattice relaxation in marginally twisted bilayers

Christophe De Beule, Gayani N. Pallewela, Mohammed M. Al Ezzi, Liangtao Peng, E. J. Mele, and Shaffique Adam

Phys. Rev. B 113, L241402 (2026) - Published 10 June, 2026

At small twist angles, two-dimensional moiré materials behave more like elastic membranes than rigid crystals, and structural reconstruction becomes increasingly dramatic as the twist angle decreases. Existing treatments rely on numerical simulations that fail due to the enormous atom count in the moiré cell. Here, the authors establish an analytical theory for relaxation in the regime of marginal twists, characterized by a single parameter and enabling accurate predictions in agreement with experiments on twisted bilayer graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides.
