The low-energy dynamics of two-dimensional topological matter hinges on its one-dimensional edge modes. Tunneling between fractional quantum Hall edge modes facilitates the study of anyonic statistics: it induces time-domain braiding that…
Generalized Yang-Mills theory has a covariant derivative which contains both vector and scalar gauge bosons. Based on this theory, we construct an SU(3) unified model of weak and electromagnetic interactions. By using the NJL mechanism, the…
We study a phase transition in a non-equilibrium model first introduced in [5], using the Yang-Lee description of equilibrium phase transitions in terms of both canonical and grand canonical partition function zeros. The model consists of…
The theory of anyon systems, as modular functors topologically and unitary modular tensor categories algebraically, is mature. To go beyond anyons, our first step is the interplay of anyons with conventional group symmetry due to the…
Strongly correlated fractional quantum Hall liquids support fractional excitations, which can be understood in terms of adiabatic flux insertion arguments. A second route to fractionalization is through the coupling of weakly interacting…
Various gauge invariant but non-Yang-Mills dynamical models are discussed: Pr\'ecis of Chern-Simons theory in (2+1)-dimensions and reduction to (1+1)-dimensional B-F theories; gauge theories for (1+1)-dimensional gravity-matter…
We quantum mechanically analyze the fractional quantum Hall effect in graphene. This will be done by building the corresponding states in terms of a potential governing the interactions and discussing other issues. More precisely, we…
Identifying experimental signatures of anyons, which exhibit fractional exchange statistics, remains a central challenge in the study of two-dimensional topologically ordered systems. Previous theoretical work has shown that the threshold…
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…
We study the possible phase transitions between (2+1)-dimensional abelian Chern-Simons theories. We show that they may be described by non-unitary rational conformal field theories with c_eff = 1. As an example we choose the fractional…
We consider the ``metric-affine-like'' generalization of the Yang-Mills theory (mal-YM) which we first proposed earlier. In this model, the connection is no longer assumed to be compatible with the Hermitian form in the fibers. As a…
We describe a theoretical proposal for a system whose excitations are anyons with the exchange phase pi/4 and charge -e/2, but, remarkably, can be built by filling a set of single-particle states of essentially noninteracting electrons. The…
In this paper, we report on the study of Abelian and non-Abelian statistics through Fabry-Perot interferometry of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems. Our detection of phase slips in quantum interference experiments demonstrates a…
Non-relativistic anyons in 1D possess generalized exchange statistics in which the exchange of two identical anyons generates a non-local phase that is governed by the spatial ordering of the particles and the statistical parameter…
It is shown that a unitary theory of interacting phonons with orthogonal polarization vectors can be described by a pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. The three orthogonal modes: the two transverse and one longitudinal mode for each value of the…
It has been recently realized that strong interactions in topological Bloch bands give rise to the appearance of novel states of matter. Here we study connections between these systems -- fractional Chern insulators and the fractional…
Fractionalized quasiparticles - anyons - bear a special role in present-day physics. At the same time, they display properties of interest both foundational, with quantum numbers that transcend the spin-statistics laws, and applied,…
We use segment DMRG on the infinite cylinder to compute energies of charged excitations in gate-screened fractional quantum Hall states. For the $\nu=1/3$ Laughlin, $\nu=2/5$ Jain, and $\nu=5/2$ anti-Pfaffian states, we find screening can…
We study the single particle dynamics of a mobile non-Abelian anyon hopping around many pinned anyons on a surface. The dynamics is modelled by a discrete time quantum walk and the spatial degree of freedom of the mobile anyon becomes…
We study the quench dynamics of one dimensional bosons or fermion quantum gases with either attractive or repulsive contact interactions. Such systems are well described by the Gaudin-Yang model which turns out to be quantum integrable. We…
