It is well known that in quantum gravity, the very geometry of space and time is subject to continual fluctuation. The mathematical formulation for this old theory is still lacking. This article formulates this more than forty-year-old…
The fundamental collective degree of freedom of fractional quantum Hall states is identified as a unimodular two-dimensional spatial metric that characterizes the local shape of the correlations of the incompressible fluid. Its quantum…
In 1976 Jackiw and Rebbi found 1/2 of a fermion number by using Dirac equation in 1+1 dimensions. Schrieffer in several proposals made an effort to suggest that there is a fractional charge. The calculations of Peierls distortion, Berry's…
While free and weakly interacting particles are well described by a a second-quantized nonlinear Schr\"odinger field, or relativistic versions of it, the fields of strongly interacting particles are governed by effective actions, whose…

Since the discovery of the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect in 1982 there has been considerable theoretical discussion on the possibility of fractional quantization of conductance in the absence of Landau levels formed by a quantizing…
The fractional quantum Hall effect has been considered as a puzzling quantum many-body phenomenon that has yet to be fully explained. The plateau width and excitation energy gap are particularly problematic. We report here that those two…

Fractionalization is a phenomenon where an elementary excitation partitions into several pieces. This picture explains non-trivial transport through a junction of one-dimensional edge channels defined by topologically distinct quantum Hall…

The fractional quantum Hall states are non-Fermi liquids of electrons, in that their ground states and low energy excitations are described not in terms of electrons but in terms of composite fermions which are bound states of electrons and…
It is shown, that the requirement of invariance under spatial rotations reveales an intrinsic fractional extended translation-rotation-like property for particles described with the fractional Schroedinger equation, which we call fractional…
The eigenstates of interacting electrons in the fractional quantum Hall phase typically form fairly well defined bands in the energy space. We show that the composite fermion theory gives insight into the origin of these bands and provides…
The fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect arises from strong electron correlations in a quantising magnetic field, and features exotic emergent phenomena such as electron fractionalisation. Using the diagrammatic Monte Carlo approach with…
Fractional edge states can be viewed as integer edge states of composite fermions. We exploit this to discuss the conductance of the fractional quantized Hall states and the velocity of edge magnetoplasmons.
The observed Standard Model is consistent with the existence of vector-like species with electric charge a multiple of $e/6$. The discovery of a fractionally charged particle would provide nonperturbative information about Standard Model…
