ØAbstract

Graphene, a single layer of carbon, is a condensed matter realization of the relativistic
two-dimensional Dirac equation.  After  successful  isolations  of  graphene  in  2004,
graphene  has shown a cornucopia of interesting  new  physical  phenomena  with an
exponentially  increasing  literature.  The main driving forces behind  the  interests  in
graphene  are two-fold: basic science and future  technological applications.  In this
colloquium,  I will review  my  recent  works  focusing  on  special  interplay  between
electronic,  magnetic,  and  geometric effect in graphene  superstructures  and  their
consequences.
