ABSTRACT
Monolayer graphene and bilayer graphene behave differently. Certain magic angle twists between two layers spring new surprises. I will present a theory,a twist on existing theories. Weak electron tunneling between two layers amplify the quiescent electron correlations present in a single layer graphene and creates rich physics. An interlayer spin-charge decoupling
and consequences are predicted.
