Spin-polarized reconstruction of the v=1 quantum Hall edge is accompanied by a spatial modulation of the charge density along the edge. We find that this is also the case for finite quantum Hall droplets: current spin density functional…

We provide fine asymptotics of solutions of fractional elliptic equations at boundary points where the domain is locally conical; that is, corner type singularities appear. Our method relies on a suitable smoothing of the corner singularity…

We analyse the inner products of edge state wavefunctions in the fractional quantum Hall effect, specifically for the Laughlin and Moore-Read states. We use an effective description for these inner products given by a large-$N$ expansion…
The neutral fermionic edge mode is essential to the non-Abelian topological property and its experimental detection in $Z_k$ fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state for $k > 1$. Usually, the identification of the edge modes in a finite size…
Using the Laughlin's argument on a torus with two pin-holes, we numerically demonstrate that the discontinuities of the center-of-mass work well as an invariant of the pumping phenomena during the process of the flux-attachment, trading the…
