When coordinates are noncommutative, the Hall effect is reinvestigated. The Hall conductivity is expressed with noncommutative parameters, so that in the commutative limit it tends to the conventional result.

A theory of the weak field Hall effect of Bloch electrons based on the analysis of the forces acting on electrons is presented. It is argued that the electric current is composed of two contributions, that driven by the electric field along…

Puzzling results obtained from torque magnetometry in the quantum Hall effect (QHE) regime are presented, and a theory is proposed for their explanation. Magnetic moment saturation, which is usually attributed to the QHE breakdown, is shown…

We report results of numerical studies of the integer quantum Hall effect in a tight binding model on a two-dimensional square lattice with non-interacting electrons, in the presence of a random potential as well as a uniform magnetic field…

We analysis the quantum Hall effect exhibited by a system of particles moving in a higher dimensional space. This can be done by considering particles on the Bergman ball {\bb{B}_{\rho}^d} of radius \rho in the presence of an external…

Inspired by recent experiments by Geim et al. we discuss the classical theory of the Hall effect of a 2 dimensional electron gas in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. The field modulation is in the form of flux tubes created by a…

We study the fractional quantum Hall effect in a bilayer with charge-distribution imbalance induced, for instance, by a bias gate voltage. The bilayer can either be intrinsic or it can be formed spontaneously in wide quantum wells, due to…

Using a new MBE growth technique, we fabricate a two-dimensional electron system which is bent around an atomically sharp 90 degree corner. In the quantum Hall regime under tilted magnetic fields, we can measure equilibration between both…

We report a nearly ideal quantum anomalous Hall effect in a three-dimensional topological insulator thin film with ferromagnetic doping. Near zero applied magnetic field we measure exact quantization in Hall resistance to within a part per…

The quantum Hall effect, which exhibits a number of unusual properties, is studied in a gated 1000-nm-thick HgTe film, nominally a three-dimensional system. A weak zero plateau of Hall resistance, accompanied by a relatively small value of…

An effective Hamiltonian for the study of the quantum Hall effect is proposed. This Hamiltonian, which includes a ``current-current" interaction has the form of a Hamiltonian for a conformal field theory in the large $N$ limit. An order…

The fractional quantum Hall effect in 2D electron gases submitted to large magnetic fields remains one of the most striking phenomena in condensed matter physics. Historically, the first observed signature is a Hall resistance quantized to…

The Quantum Hall Effects in all even dimensions are uniformly constructed. Contrary to some recent accounts in the literature, the existence of Quantum Hall Effects does not {\it crucially} depend on the existence of division algebras. For…
