Abstract
We explore the hyperbolic band theory under a magnetic field for the first time. Our theory is a general extension of the conventional band theory defined on a Euclidean lattice into the band theory on a general hyperbolic lattice/Riemann surface. Our methods and results can be confirmed experimentally by circuit quantum electrodynamics, which enables us to create novel materials in a hyperbolic space. To investigate the band structures, we construct directly the hyperbolic magnetic Bloch states and find that they form Dirac cones on a coordinate neighborhood. They can be regarded as a global quantum gravity solution detectable in a laboratory. Besides this is the first explicit example of a massless Dirac state on a higher genus surface. Moreover we show that the energy spectrum exhibits an unusual fractal structure refracting the negative curvature, when plotted as a function of a magnetic flux.
