Abstract
This chapter presents information (in slide form) about graphene properties, its massless relativistic spectrum, its Green’s function with and without a magnetic field, and its dielectric screening. This chapter also includes graphene energy loss, van der Waals interaction, transport, and a detailed analysis of its kinetic equations for DC and AC conductivity. Device applications are also discussed.
