Universal scaling of the BS localization length λBS as a function of the CLSs overlap |α| for 1D and 2D lattices based on Eqs. (32) and (34), respectively (in the common case that only nearest-neighbour CLSs overlap). Here, |α| = 1/2 and |α| = 1/4 are the maximum allowed values of |α|, respectively in 1D and 2D, consistent with the hypothesis that only nearest-neighbour CLSs overlap. In 2D, the behaviour is the sum of two decaying exponentials with localization lengths λ2D and λ ′ 2D [cf. Eq. (34)].

Flat bands (FBs) are energy bands with zero group velocity, which in electronic systems were shown to favor strongly correlated phenomena. Indeed, a FB can be spanned with a basis of strictly localized states, the so called "compact localized states" (CLSs), which are yet generally non-orthogonal. Here, we study emergent dipole-dipole interactions...

... is subject to the constraint |α| ≤ 1/4). Thus, in this case the decay results from the superposition of two exponential functions with localization length λ 2D and λ ′ 2D , respectively. As in 1D, both localization lengths grow with |α| (see Fig. 4(b)]. Differently from 1D, however, when α approaches its maximum value 1/4 only λ 2D diverges while λ ′ 2D instead saturates to the finite value λ ′ 2D (α → 1/4) ≃ 0.567 (for α → −1/4, λ 2D saturates to the same value while λ ′ 2D diverges). This means that in this limiting case the weight function ξ nn ′ is a single exponential having ...
