We show that the quantum Hall wave functions for the ground states in the Jain series can be exactly expressed in terms of correlation functions of local vertex operators, V_n, corresponding to composite fermions in the n:th…
By strictly adhering to the microscopic theory of composite fermions (CFs) for the Landau-level filling fractions \nu_e = p/(2 p + 1), we reproduce, with remarkable accuracy, the surface-acoustic-wave (SAW)-based experimental results by…
We construct a wavefunction, generalizing the well known Moore-Read Pfaffian, that describes spinless electrons at filling fraction nu=2/5 (or bosons at filling fraction nu=2/3) as the ground state of a very simple three body potential. We…
The composite fermion (CF) formalism produces wave functions that are not always linearly independent. This is especially so in the low angular momentum regime in the lowest Landau level, where a subclass of CF states, known as simple…
We present a set of explicit trial wavefunctions for the filling factors \nu=n/(2n\pm 1) and \nu=1/2 in the symmetric gauge. We show that the zeroes of the wavefunction, except those dictated by the Fermi statistics, are detached from the…
Due to its extremely rich phase diagram, the two-dimensional electron gas exposed to perpendicular magnetic field has been the subject of intense and sustained study. One particularly interesting problem in this system is that of the…
We discuss monolayer and bilayer quantum Hall systems in which each layer is a half-filled Landau level (LL) system. In the mean field approximation of the Son's formalism there is a common pairing structure that underlines the…
Pairing interaction between fermionic particles leads to composite Bosons that condense at low temperature. Such condensate gives rise to long range order and phase coherence in superconductivity, superfluidity, and other exotic states of…
We propose a new state described by the second Landau level (SLL) projection of a generalized Moore-Read Pfaffian wavefunction with an antiholomorphic pairing component. Unlike the PH-Pfaffian state which is described by the lowest Landau…
We observe geometric resonance features of composite fermions on the flanks of the even denominator {\nu} = 1/2 fractional quantum Hall state in high-mobility two-dimensional electron and hole systems confined to wide GaAs quantum wells and…
It is known that a subset of fractional quantum Hall wave functions has been expressed as conformal field theory (CFT) correlators, notably the Laughlin wave function at filling factor $\nu=1/m$ ($m$ odd) and its quasiholes, and the…
Despite its success, the composite fermion (CF) construction possesses some mathematical features that have, until recently, not been fully understood. In particular, it is known to produce wave functions that are not necessarily…
Motivated by the observation of even denominator fractional quantum Hall effect in the $n=3$ Landau level of monolayer graphene [Y. Kim $\textit{et al.}$, Nature Physics $\textbf{15}$, 154 (2019)], we consider a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer…
We study Cooper pairing in the Dirac composite fermion (CF) system. The presence of the mass term in the Dirac CF description (which may simulate Landau level mixing) i.e. breaking of particle-hole (PH) symmetry in this system, is a…
We introduce a new variational wavefunction for a quantum Hall bilayer at total filling $\nu = 1$, which is based on $s$-wave BCS pairing between composite-fermion electrons in one layer and composite-fermion holes in the other. We compute…
The Halperin-Lee-Read Fermi sea of composite fermions (CFs) at half-filled lowest Landau level is the realization of a fascinating non-Fermi liquid metallic phase. Remarkably, experiments have found that as the width of the quantum well is…
We argue that a new type of quantum Hall state requiring non-perturbative Landau level mixing arises at low electron density. In these states, up and down spin electrons pair to form spinless bosons that condense into a bosonic quantum Hall…
When confined to two dimensions and exposed to a strong magnetic field, electrons screen the Coulomb interaction in a topological fashion; they capture and even number of quantum vortices and transform into particl es called `composite…
We generalize the fractional quantum Hall hierarchy picture to apply to arbitrary, possibly non-Abelian, fractional quantum Hall states. Applying this to the nu = 5/2 Moore-Read state, we construct new explicit trial wavefunctions to…
The mean field composite Fermion (MFCF) picture has been qualitatively successful when applied to electrons (or holes) in the lowest Landau level. Because the energy scales associated with Coulomb interactions and with Chern-Simons gauge…
