of electromagnetic interaction in single-layer graphene by means of the perturbation theory The interaction of electromagnetic field with Dirac fermions in single-layer graphene has a peculiarity: Dirac fermions in graphene interact not only with the electromagnetic wave propagating within the graphene sheet, but also with electromagnetic field propagating from a location outside the graphene sheet and illuminating this sheet The interaction Hamiltonian of the system comprising electromagnetic field and Dirac fermions fields contains the limits at graphene plane of electromagnetic field vector and scalar potentials which can be shortly called boundary electromagnetic field The study of S-matrix requires knowing the limits at graphene plane of 2-point Green functions of electromagnetic field which also can be shortly called boundary 2-point Green functions of electromagnetic field As the first example of the application of perturbation theory, the second order terms in the perturbative expansions of boundary 2-point Green functions of electromagnetic field as well as of 2-point Green functions of Dirac fermion fields are explicitly derived Further extension of the application of perturbation theory is also discussed Keywords: electromagnetic, graphene, Dirac fermion, perturbation theory, Green function Classification numbers: 3.00, 5.15 Introduction dimensional Minkowski space–time Therefore the charge carriers in graphene are called Dirac fermions Denote K and K′ two nearest corners of the first Brillouin zone in the reciprocal lattice of the hexagonal crystalline structure of a graphene monolayer They are called Dirac points In the framework of the quantum field theory the spinless fermions in graphene are described by twocomponent quantum fields y K (r, t ) and y K ¢ (r, t ), r = {r1, r2} = {x, y} Each of them can be considered as a spinor field of a new SU(2) symmetry group similar to the isospinors in theory of elementary particles [6–9] Thus the two-component fields y K (r, t ) and y K ¢ (r, t ) can be called, for example, quasi-spinors or pseudo-spinors Three Pauli matrices acting on these spinors of a new type will be denoted Soon after the discovery of graphene by Geim and Novoselov [1–4], the research on graphene rapidly developed and became a wide interdisciplinary area of science and technology It was shown [5] that even in the case when the electron spin plays no role, its quantum states are still described by two-component wave functions satisfying differential wave equations similar to relativistic Dirac equation for a massless particles in (2 + 1)Original content from this work may be used under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 licence Any further distribution of this work must

(2016) 035001 V H Nguyen τi, i = 1, 2, It was shown [5] that for the system of free Dirac fermions with wave functions having wave vectors in the neighbors of Dirac points we can use following approximate expression of the Hamiltonian HG = v F ò dr {y K (r, t )+t (-i) y K (r, t ) + y K ¢ (r , t )+t ⁎ ( - i) y K ¢ (r , t )}, From formula (4) of Hint(t) we have J (r , t ) = ev F {y K (r , t )+ty K (r , t ) + y K ¢ (r , t )+t ⁎y K ¢ (r , t )} and (1 ) r (r , t ) = e {y K (r , t )+y K (r , t ) + y K ¢ (r , t )+y K ¢ (r , t )}⋅ (8 ) where vF is the speed of Dirac fermions In the study of the interaction between Dirac fermions and electromagnetic field we must consider electromagnetic field in the physical three-dimensional space Let us chose to use the Cartesian coordinate system as follows: the plane of graphene monolayer is the xOy coordinate plane and, therefore, the Oz axis is perpendicular to this plane Then the coordinate of a point in the physical three-dimensional space is denoted {r, z} = {x, y, z} The electromagnetic field is described by the vector potential A(r, z, t) and scalar potential field j(r, z, t) From formula (1) it follows that the interaction Hamiltonian of the system of Dirac fermion fields and electromagnetic field has the expression Hint (t ) = ev F Using Dirac equations derived from Hamiltonian (1) we can demonstrate that charge density ρ(r, t) and charge current density J(r, t) satisfy well-known continuity equation ¶r (r , t ) (9 ) + J ( r , t ) = ⋅ ¶t Recently there arose a significant attention to the study of electromagnetic interaction processes in graphene such as nonlinear optical processes [10] and plasmon resonance [11–17] The purpose of present work is to elaborate the basics of quantum field theory of electromagnetic interaction processes in the singlelayer graphene starting from the interaction Hamiltonian (4) It was well-known that the most popular approach for the theoretical study of dynamical processes in any quantum system with a given interaction Hamiltonian Hint(t) is to work in the interaction picture in which the field operators satisfy the Heisenberg quantum equation of motion of the free fields and, therefore, have the same expressions in terms of the destruction and creation operators of their quanta as those of the corresponding free fields This special feature of the interaction picture permits to establish exact and clearly formulated mathematical rules in the calculation of physical quantities of the quantum system These quantities are expressed in terms of interaction Hamiltonian (4) Since we have chosen to work in the interaction picture, for the study of electromagnetic interaction processes in singlelayer graphene we must use the expressions determining the boundary free electromagnetic field on graphene as well as the boundary limits on the graphene plane of Green functions of the free electromagnetic field, which also briefly called the boundary Green functions of free electromagnetic field on graphene plane The boundary electromagnetic field and the 2-point boundary Green function of free electromagnetic field are investigated in the subsequent section In section the 2-point Green functions of boundary electromagnetic field on the graphene plane and Dirac fermion fields of the interacting system of electromagnetic field and Dirac fermions in graphene are studied by means of the perturbation theory The conclusion and discussion are presented in section ò dr {y K (r, t )+t y K (r, t ) + y K ¢ (r , t )+t ⁎ y K ¢ (r , t )} A (r , o , t ) ò + e dr {y K (r , t )+ y K (r , t ) + y K ¢ (r , t )+y K ¢ (r , t )} j (r , o , t ) (2 ) The function A(r, o, t) and j(r, o, t) of variable r and t are vector field A(r, t) and scalar field j(r, t) on the graphene plane: A (r , t ) def = A (r , o , t ) , def j (r , t ) = j (r , o , t ) (3 ) Since they are the limits of the vector potential A(r, z, t) and the scalar potential j(r, z, t) of the electromagnetic field when the point {r, z} tends to the limit {r, o} in the xOy coordinate plane, which is the boundary of the upper or lower half-space above or under the single-layer graphene plane, we shortly call them vector potential and scalar potential of the boundary electromagnetic field on the graphene plane In terms of A(r, t) and j(r, t) the interaction Hamiltonian (4) has the expression Hint (t ) = ev F ò dr {y K (r, t )+t y K (r, t ) + y K ¢ (r , t )+t ⁎ y K ¢ (r , t )} A (r , t ) ò + e dr {y K (r , t )+y K (r , t ) + y K ¢ (r , t )+y K ¢ (r , t )} j (r , t ) (7 ) (4 ) Boundary free electromagnetic field and boundary 2-point Green functions of free electromagnetic field The charge current density J(r, t) and charge density ρ(r, t) are expressed in terms of Hint(t) by the definition J (r , t ) = dHint (t ) d A (r , t ) (5 ) r (r , t ) = dHint (t ) ⋅ dj (r , t ) (6 ) In order to study electromagnetic interaction processes in graphene it is necessary to use explicit expressions of vector and scalar potentials A(r, t) and j(r, t) of the boundary free electromagnetic field as well as the boundary Green functions of free electromagnetic field on the graphene plane, and also Green functions of free Dirac fermion fields The laters were and Adv Nat Sci.: Nanosci Nanotechnol (2016) 035001 V H Nguyen studied in [18] and we shall use the results of this work In the present section we study vector and scalar potentials A(r, t) and j(r, t), and boundary 2-point Green function of free electromagnetic field The study of boundary 2n-point Green functions of electromagnetic field with n > by means of the perturbation theory will be carried out in section Vector field A(r, t) and complex scalar field ij(r, t) are the components of the limit at z → of a 4-vector field Aμ(x) in the (3 + 1)-dimensional Minkowski space–time: μ = 1, 2, 3, 4; x = {r, z, it}; Aμ(x) = {A(x), ij(x)} For simplifying equations and calculations in classical electrodynamics [19] one frequently imposes on Aμ(x) the Lorentz condition ¶Am (x ) ¶xm = 0⋅ The vector field A(r, t)l with an index l ≠ looks like a massive free vector field with the mass | l | in the (2 + 1)dimensional Minkowski space–time Note that matrix elements of scalar field j(r, t) of boundary electromagnetic field between two state vectors |F1ñ and |F2 ñ of any pairs of two physical states of the system always vanish Therefore there is no necessity to write the explicit expression of j(r, t) The 2-point Green function of free electromagnetic field at T = is defined as follows: Dmn (r , z , t ) = - i T {Am (r , z , t ) An (0,0,0)} ñ , where the symbol áñ denote the average of inserted expression (containing field operators) in the ground state | 0ñ of the Dirac fermion gas (10) áñ = | | 0ñ⋅ However, in quantum electrodynamics (QED) this condition cannot hold for the quantum vector field Aμ(x) Instead of condition (10) it was reasonably proposed to assume another similar but weaker condition imposed on the state vectors |F1ñ and |F2 ñ of all physical states of the system: áF1| ¶Am (x ) ¶xm | F2 đ = 0⋅ (2 p ) ò ò så =1 dk dl (11) Dmn (r , t ) = lim Dmn (r , z , t ) of

in such a gauge that the boundary limit In the fundamental research works on QED [20, 21] it was demonstrated that due to the weak Lorentz condition (11) the electromagnetic waves in the states with longitudinal and scalar polarizations play no role in all physical processes Therefore in the Hilbert space of state vectors of all physical states of the system the vector potential field A(x) = A(r, z, t) has following effective Fourier expansion formula A (r , z , t ) = (15) Dmn (r , t )l = dmn W (k , l ) ´ ´ {xs kl ei [kr-W (k, l ) t ] cs kl + x ⁎s kl e-i [kr-W (k, l ) t ] cs+kl }⋅ (2 p ) i (k

2-point Green function Dmn (r, t ) are effectively represented as the linear combinations (13) and (20) of the quantum vector field A(r, t)l and the 2-point Green functions Dmn (r, t )l labeled by a continuous index l having real values in the whole infinite interval from −∞ to +∞ It is interesting to note that quantum boundary vector fields A(r, t)l with l ≠ look like quantum massive vector

interaction Hamiltonian (4) it is straightforward to find matrix elements of all electromagnetic interaction processes in graphene singlelayer Thus in the present work we have constructed the basics of theory of electromagnetic interaction processes and phenomena This area of research can be briefly called Graphene quantum electrodynamics Using basic formulae for the Hamiltonian of the interacting system comprising the electromagnetic field in the threedimensional physical space and the Dirac fermion fields in a single-layer graphene sheet we have an efficient method to the theoretical study of electromagnetic interaction processes in single-layer graphene, working in the interaction picture For this purpose we have determined the boundary free electromagnetic field on graphene as well as boundary limits on the graphene plane of 2-point Green functions of the free electromagnetic field, briefly called boundary Green functions of the free electromagnetic field Then we have explicitly constructed the S-matrix and applied the perturbation theory to establish expressions of the boundary 2-point Green functions of electromagnetic field and 2-point Green functions of Dirac fermion fields in the second order of the perturbation theory We have shown that the Fourier transforms D˜ij (k, w )(2) and D˜ 00 (k, w )(2) of second order terms of boundary Green functions of electromagnetic field are determined by equations (76) K,K ¢ ˜ ab and (77), and the Fourier transforms D (k, w )(2) of second order terms of Dirac fermion Green functions are determined by equations (78) and (79) The total boundary 2-point Green functions (26) and (27) of electromagnetic field and total 2-point Dirac fermion Green functions (28) will be calculated in a subsequent work We expect that in the ladder approximation the Fourier transforms D˜ij (k, w ) and D˜ 00 (k, w ) of boundary total 2-point Green functions of electromagnetic field satisfy Dyson equations ´ Pnm (k, w ) D˜ mj
