For a given parent fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state at filling fraction $\nu$, the hierarchy construction produces FQH states at nearby filling fractions $\{\nu_n\}$ by condensing minimally charged quasiholes or quasiparticles of the…
A novel hierarchy of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states in the lowest Landau level (LL) is proposed to explain recently observed FQH fractions such as nu=5/13, 3/8, or 4/11. Based on the analysis of their interaction pseudopotentials, it…
One of the central tenets of the theory of the fractional quantum Hall effect is that the bulk quantized Hall response requires the existence of a gapless chiral edge mode. The field theoretical arguments for this rely on locality. While…
