At total filling factor $\nu=1$ quantum Hall bilayers can have an ordered ground state with spontaneous interlayer phase coherence. The ordered state is signaled experimentally by dramatically enhanced interlayer tunnel conductances at low…
Filling factor $\nu=1$ bilayer electron systems in the quantum Hall regime have an excitonic-condensate superfluid ground state when the layer separation $d$ is less than a critical value $d_c$. On a quantum Hall plateau current injected…

Interlayer tunneling measurements in the strongly correlated bilayer quantized Hall phase at $\nu_T=1$ are reported. The maximum, or critical current for tunneling at $\nu_T=1$, is shown to be a well-defined global property of the coherent…
Weakly disordered bilayer quantum Hall systems at filling factor $\nu=1$ show spontaneous interlayer phase coherence if the layers are sufficiently close together. We study the collective modes in the system, the current-voltage…

By studying the quantum Hall effect of stationary states with high values of injected current using a von Neumann lattice representation, we found that broadening of extended state bands due to a Hall electric field occurs and causes the…
We present and solve a model for the vortex configuration of a disordered quantum Hall bilayer in the limit of strong and smooth disorder. We argue that there is a characteristic disorder strength below which vortices will be rare, and…

At total filling factor $\nu_T=1$, interlayer phase coherence in quantum Hall bilayers can result in a tunneling anomaly resembling the Josephson effect in the presence of strong fluctuations. The most robust experimental signature of this…
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…
We study bilayer quantum Hall systems at total Landau level filling factor $\nu=1$ in the presence of interlayer tunneling and coupling to a dissipative normal fluid. Describing the dynamics of the interlayer phase by an effective quantum…
Bilayer quantum Hall system at total filling factor $\nu=1$ shows a rich variety of broken symmetry ground states because of the competition between the interlayer and intralayer Coulomb interactions. When the layers are sufficiently close,…
We argue that all anomalous transport properties of coherent quantum quantum Hall bilayers can be understood in terms of a mean-field transport theory in which the condensate phase is nearly uniform across the sample, and the strength of…
We have investigated the tunneling properties of an electron double quantum well system where the lowest Landau level of each quantum well is half filled. This system is expected to be a Bose condensate of excitons. Our four-terminal dc…
Recent experiments on quantum Hall bilayers near total filling factor 1 have demonstrated that they support an ``imperfect'' two-dimensional superfluidity, in which there is nearly dissipationless transport at non-vanishing temperature…
The counterflow transport in quantum Hall bilayers provided by superfluid excitons is locked at small input currents due to a complete leakage caused by the interlayer tunneling. We show that the counterflow critical current I_c^{CF} above…
Due to strong interlayer correlations, the bilayer quantum Hall system is a single coherent system as a whole rather than a weakly-coupled set of two independent systems, which makes conventional tunnelling theories inapplicable. In this…
Superfluid properties of electron-hole pairs in a quantum Hall four-layer system are investigated. The system is considered as a solid state realization of a two-component superfluid Bose gas with dipole-dipole interaction. One superfluid…
