- It matches previous expressions in their respective limits.
- The paper clarifies the relationship between the new and old formulas.

## Abstract

We propose an alternative analytical expression for the density of states of a clean graphene in the nearest-neighbor approximation. In contrast to the previously known expression, it can be written as a single formula valid for the whole energy range. The correspondence with the previously known expression is shown and the limiting cases are analyzed.
