It has been well-known that topological phenomena with fractional excitations, i.e., the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) \cite{Tsui1982} will emerge when electrons move in Landau levels. In this letter, we report the discovery of the…
Using a well known singular gauge transformation, certain fractional quantized Hall states can be modeled as integer quantized Hall states of transformed fermions interacting with a Chern-Simons field. In previous work we have calculated…
We study a model of bosons in the lowest Landau level in a rotating trap where the confinement potential is a sum of a quadratic and a quartic term. The quartic term improves the stability of the system against centrifugal deconfinement and…

We present a quantum field theoretical analysis of a $\nu = 1$ quantum Hall system when the effective Land\'e $g$ factor is small. We clearly demonstrate that the ground state of the system is ferromagnetic. We note that it is the short…
We discuss the properties of Skyrmions in the Fractional Quantum Hall effect (FQHE). We begin with a brief description of the Chern-Simons-Landau-Ginzburg description of the FQHE, which provides the framework in which to understand a new…
The abelian hierarchy of quantum Hall states accounts for most of the states in the lowest Landau level, and there is evidence of a similar hierarchy of non-abelian states emanating from the {\nu} = 5/2 Moore-Read state in the second Landau…
There are known two distinct types of the integer quantum Hall effect. One is the conventional quantum Hall effect, characteristic of two-dimensional semiconductor systems, and the other is its relativistic counterpart recently observed in…
It was recently shown that dipolar composite fermions emerged from the lowest-Landau-level formulation of the quantum Hall effect give rise to similar results as those of the Chern-Simons gauge theory in the long wavelength and low energy…
We point out the connection between the problem of formulating quantum mechanics in phase space and projecting the motion of a quantum mechanical particle onto a particular Landau level. In particular, we show that lowest Landau level wave…
We derive the effective action for a moving magnetic-field-induced spin-density wave (FISDW) in quasi-one-dimensional conductors at zero and nonzero temperatures by taking the functional integral over the electron field. The effective…
Our understanding of localization in the integer quantum Hall effect is informed by a combination of semi-classical models and percolation theory. Motivated by the effect of correlations on classical percolation we study numerically…
The residual interaction between composite fermions (CFs) can express itself through higher order fractional Hall effect. With the help of diagonalization in a truncated composite fermion basis of low-energy many-body states, we predict…
We construct Landau-Ginzburg effective field theories for fractional quantum Hall states -- such as the Pfaffian state -- which exhibit non-Abelian statistics. These theories rely on a Meissner construction which increases the level of a…
We compute the effect of Landau-level-mixing on the effective two-body and three-body pseudopotentials for electrons in the lowest and second Landau levels. We find that the resulting effective three-body interaction is attractive in the…
The one-dimensional ${\cal N}\times {\cal N}$-matrix Chern-Simons action is given, for large ${\cal N}$ and for slowly varying fields, by the $(2k+1)$-dimensional Chern-Simons action $S_{CS}$, where the gauge fields in $S_{CS}$ parametrize…
