Quantum Monte-Carlo study of graphene in external magnetic field — •Maksim Ulybyshev — Institute of Theoretical Physics, University of Regensburg, D-93053 Germany, Regensburg, Universitatsstrasse 31

Recent experimental results indicate that graphene turns into insulator in sufficiently strong magnetic field. However, the exact nature of this state is still elusive and there are some discrepancies between theoretical predictions and experimental results. To resolve this discrepancies extensive simulations of graphene in external magnetic field were performed using Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm. Insulating state was observed in agreement with experiment. Mass gap and various order parameters were measured.
