a Evolution of a typical branch of weak transitions between branch F and G in Fig. 1d. Spectra at 2.4–3.0 T (0.1 T step) are shifted horizontally to the center, and vertically by multiples of 0.1. Three peaks emerge gradually in the middle. b Fitting of the 2.8 T spectrum using seven Lorentzian peaks. The two side peaks in the weak transition branch correspond to (−9 → 7) and (−7 → 9). These Δ|N| = ± 2 transitions are allowed by the trigonal warping effect. The central peak corresponds to transition (−8 → 8) and its selection rule of Δ|N| = 0 is beyond an ideal single-particle picture. c Energy splitting between different pairs of peaks indicated by dashed lines in b. The splitting within branch F and G are plotted in pink (E78) and green (E89), respectively, whereas the sum of them is plotted in red (twice of the difference between electron and hole cyclotron energies). The splitting between (−9 → 7) and (−7 → 9) (E79 plotted in blue) is very close to E78 + E89—corroborating our assignment of peaks in b.
