Examines a class of periodic Schrodinger operators, which in distinguished cases can be proved to have linear band-crossings or "Dirac points". The authors then show that the introduction of an "edge", via adiabatic modulation of these periodic potentials by a domain wall, results in the bifurcation of spatially localized "edge states".
