Quantum Hall quasielectrons - Abelian and non-Abelian

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2013-05-29 v2

Abstract

The quasiparticles in Quantum Hall liquids carry fractional charge and obey fractional quantum statistics. Of particular recent interest are those with non-Abelian statistics, since their braiding properties could in principle be used for robust coding of quantum information. There is already a good theoretical understanding of quasiholes both in Abelian and non-Abelian QH states. Here we develop conformal field theory methods that allow for an equally precise description of quasielectrons, and explicitly construct two- and four-quasielectron excitations of the non-Abelian Moore-Read state.
