Hofstadter butterflies for flat bands
Hideo Aoki, Masato Ando, Hajime Matsumura
Abstract
Hofstadter's diagram, or the energy spectrum against the magnetic field in tight-binding systems, is obtained for the models having flat (dispersionless) one-electron band(s) that have originally been proposed for itinerant spin ferromagnetism. Magnetic fields preserve those flat bands that arise from a topological reason, while dispersions emerge in a singular manner for the flat bands arising from interference, implying an anomalous orbital magnetism.
