We present the electronic properties of massless Dirac fermions characterized by geometry and topology on a graphene sheet in this chapter. Topological effects can be elegantly illuminated by the Atiyah-Singer index theorem. It leads to a topological invariant under deformations on the Dirac operator and plays an essential role in formulating supersymmetric quantum mechanics over twisted Dolbeault complex caused by the topological deformation of the lattice in a graphene system. Making use of the G index theorem and a high degree of symmetry, we study deformed energy eigenvalues in graphene. The Dirac fermion results in SU(4) symmetry as a high degree of symmetry in the noninteracting Hamiltonian of the monolayer graphene. Under the topological deformation the zero-energy states emerge naturally without the Zeeman splitting at the Fermi points in the graphene sheet. In the case of nonzero energy, the up-spin and down-spin states have the exact high symmetries of spin, forming the pseudospin singlet pairing. We describe the peculiar and unconventional quantum Hall effects of the n = 0 Landau level in monolayer graphene on the basis of the G index theorem and the high degree of symmetry.
