Motivated by the experimental observation of a quantized 5/2 thermal conductance at filling $\nu=5/2$, a result incompatible with both the Pfaffian and the Antipfaffian states, we have pushed the expansion of the effective Hamiltonian of…
Electrons in two dimensions and strong magnetic fields effectively lose their kinetic energy and display exotic behavior dominated by Coulomb forces. When the ratio of electrons to magnetic flux quanta in the system is near 5/2, the unique…
A theory of electronic properties of a spin-singlet quantum Hall droplet at filling factor $\nu=2$ in a parabolic quantum dot is developed. The excitation spectrum and the stability of the droplet due to the transfer of electrons into the…
Despite the high overlap with the exact Coulomb ground state, the so-called Gaffnian state fails to describe the incompressibility at the 2/5 quantum Hall filling factor and consequently it was conjectured to be a quantum critical state. To…
We present the theory of a new type of topological quantum order which is driven by the spin-orbit density wave order parameter, and distinguished by $Z_2$ topological invariant. We show that when two oppositely polarized chiral bands…
We describe paired quantum Hall states at filling fractions $\nu$, where $\nu^{-1}$ is an integer, and present explicit wavefunctions for these states. Experiments are proposed to distinguish between paired states of singlet and triplet…
