The most celebrated property of the quantum spin Hall effect is the presence of spin-polarized counter-propagating edge states 1-3 . This novel edge state configuration has also been predicted to occur in graphene when spin-split electron-and hole-like Landau levels are forced to cross at the edge of the sample 4-7 . In particular, a quantum spin Hall analogue has been predicted at ν = 0 in bilayer graphene if the ground state is a spin ferromagnet 8,9 . Previous studies have demonstrated that the bilayer ν = 0 state is an insulator in a perpendicular magnetic field [10][11][12][13][14][15][16] , though the exact nature of this state has not been identified. Here we present measurements of the ν = 0 state in a dual-gated bilayer graphene device in tilted magnetic field. The application of an in-plane magnetic field and perpendicular electric field allows us to map out a full phase diagram of the ν = 0 state as a function of experimentally tunable parameters. At large in-plane magnetic field we observe a quantum phase transition to a metallic state with conductance of order 4e 2 /h, consistent with predictions for the ferromagnet.Under a strong perpendicular magnetic field, bilayer graphene (BLG) develops a ν = 0 quantum Hall (QH) state at the charge neutrality point (CNP) which displays anomalous insulating behavior [10][11][12][13][14][15][16] . Transport studies in a dual-gated geometry 12-14 indicate that this gapped state results from an interaction-driven spontaneous symmetry breaking in the valley-spin space 17 . However, the exact order of the resulting ground state remains controversial. In high-mobility suspended BLG devices, a broken symmetry state at charge neutrality has also been observed at zero magnetic field whose nature has been under intense theoretical 9,18-22 and experimental 12,[14][15][16]23 investigation. Some experiments indicate there may be a connection between these two insulating states 14,16 .The ν = 0 state in BLG occurs at half filling of the lowest Landau level. Although the BLG zero-energy Landau level has an additional orbital degeneracy stemming from two accidentally degenerate magnetic oscillator wavefunctions 24 , minimization of exchange energy favors singlet pairs in the orbital space at all even filling factors 25 . This leaves an approximate SU(4) spin and pseudospin symmetry for the remaining ordering of the ground state. Comparable ground state competition has also been studied in double quantum wells in GaAs 2-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) 26 . Quantum phase transitions, in particular from canted antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic ordering, can occur in those systems as an in-plane magnetic field is applied (Zeeman energy is increased) 27,28 .Our experiment is carried out in BLG samples with top and bottom gates in which thin single crystal hBN serves as a high quality dielectric on both sides (Fig. 1 bottom inset). By controlling top gate voltage (V T G ) and bottom gate voltage (V BG ) we can adjust carrier density n and perpendicular electric displacement fi...
