Composite fermion metal states emerge in quantum Hall bilayers at total Landau level filling factor $\nu_T$=1 when the tunneling gap collapses by application of in-plane components of the external magnetic field. Evidence of this…

We construct a new representation of composite fermion wave functions in the lowest Landau level which enables Monte Carlo computations at arbitrary filling factors for a fairly large number of composite fermions, thus clearing the way…

We consider spin-polarized electrons in a single Landau level on a torus. The quantum Hall problem is mapped onto a one-dimensional lattice model with lattice constant $2\pi/L_1$, where $L_1$ is a circumference of the torus (in units of the…

Das, Das, and Mandal (PRL 131, 056202, 2023) examine a wavefunction for nu = 5/2 on a sphere including moderate Landau-Level mixing evaluated perturbatively. The wavefunction they find is not a fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state as…

When a fermionic quantum Hall system is projected into the lowest Landau level, there is an exact particle-hole symmetry between filling fractions $\nu$ and $1-\nu$. We investigate whether a similar symmetry can emerge in bosonic quantum…
