The problem of Anderson localization in graphene
has generated a lot of renewed attention since graphene flakes
have been accessible to transport and spectroscopic probes.
The popularity of graphene derives from it realizing planar Dirac
fermions. I will show under what conditions disorder for
planar Dirac fermions does not result in localization but rather in a
metallic state that might be called a topological metal.
