▎ 摘　　要

We perform a general group-theoretical study of the Kondo problem in monolayer and bilayer graphene around the charge neutrality point. Utilizing the group representation theory, we derive from symmetry considerations a family of the Kondo models for all symmetric placements with either a 3- or a 6-fold rotational axis of an impurity atom in an arbitrary orbital state. We find six possible classes of the partially anisotropic four-channel Kondo model. As the key result, we argue several possibilities to realize the regime of the dominant channel-symmetric two-channel Kondo effect, protected by the local symmetry and specifics of the graphene band structure. Our findings open prospects for the observation of the rich multichannel Kondo physics in graphene and the associated non-Fermi-liquid behavior.
