Horizon physics of quasi-one-dimensional tilted Weyl cones on a lattice

To simulate the dynamics of massless Dirac fermions in curved space-times with one, two, and three spatial dimensions, we construct tight-binding Hamiltonians with spatially varying hoppings. These models represent tilted Weyl semimetals where the tilting varies with position, in a manner similar to...
