Talk:Hofstadter's butterfly

AFAIR, in GEB, Hofstaedter said that no experiment would ever show this result. Perhaps we should discuss why he was wrong. --Taejo|대조 23:36, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Fractal structures in physics

The introduction says "It is one of the rare non-random fractal structures in physics, along with KAM tori". Is that justified? Aren't there many more, like Lorenz attractors (thought of as a model for deterministic fluid flow)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dylan Thurston (talk • contribs) 15:20, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Good catch, not an expert so I will put a template on it for the moment. --MaoGo (talk) 15:22, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Experimental limits of the Hofstadter's butterfly

Hello. The Hofstadter's butterfly has been studied in graphene/hBN superlattices in my research group at the University of Manchester for some time now. We recently published a study reporting limits of the Hofstadter's butterfly in graphene superlattices. Particularly, low temperatures allow to lift the degeneracy of Hofstadter/Wannier's states through exchange interactions, as well as bending features appear for negative carrier charges, unpredicted from a theoretical standpoint. For this reason, Hofstadter's states at high magnetic fields may be referred to as 'Brown-Zak fermions'. For obvious conflict of interest, I will not edit the page myself to add this, but let other authors judge the pertinence of such information on the article. --Julien.barrier (talk) 12:41, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

citation mistake

Hello. The paper "Scaling analysis of qnasiperiodic systems: Generalized Harper model" is attributed to Harper, but the authors are Hisashi Hiramoto and Mahito Kohmoto. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atakase (talk • contribs) 04:45, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

Thanks. Fixed.--ReyHahn (talk) 07:04, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
