The fractional quantum Hall effect, where plateaus in the Hall resistance at values of coexist with zeros in the longitudinal resistance, results from electron correlations in two dimensions under a strong magnetic field. Current flows…
We consider the dephasing rate of an electron level in a quantum dot, placed next to a fluctuating edge current in the fractional quantum Hall effect. Using perturbation theory, we show that this rate has an anomalous dependence on the bias…

We study quasiparticle tunneling between the edges of a non-Abelian topological state. The simplest examples are a p+ip superconductor and the Moore-Read Pfaffian non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall state; the latter state may have been…
We analyze theoretically a three-terminal geometry in a fractional quantum Hall system - studied in a recent experiment - which allows a dilute beam of Laughlin quasiparticles to be prepared and subsequently scattered by a point contact.…
The $\nu = 2/3$ fractional quantum Hall state is the hole-conjugate state to the primary Laughlin $\nu = 1/3$ state. We investigate transmission of edge states through quantum point contacts fabricated on a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure…
