In this article, a character table for the group of the wave vector at certain points of symmetry in the Brillouin zone is given, and a possible reason for the complications which may make a simple effective mass concept invalid for some crystals of this type structure is presented.
Abstract
Character tables for the "group of the wave vector" at certain points of symmetry in the Brillouin zone are given. The additional degeneracies due to time reversal symmetry are indicated. The form of energy vs wave vector at these points of symmetry is derived. A possible reason for the complications which may make a simple effective mass concept invalid for some crystals of this type structure will be presented.

Itinerant ferromagnetism of two-dimensional repulsive fermions with Rabi coupling

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional fermionic cloud of repulsive alkali-metal atoms characterized by two hyperfine states which are Rabi coupled was studied. And the conditions under which there is a quantum phase transition with spontaneous symmetry breaking from a spinbalanced configuration to a spin-polarized one, an effect known as itinerant ferromagnetism.
