The fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect is a macroscopic manifestation of strong electron-electron interactions. Even denominator FQH states (FQHSs) at half-filling are particularly interesting as they are predicted to host non-Abelian…

Interacting electrons confined to their lowest Landau level in a high magnetic field can form a variety of correlated states, some of which manifest themselves in a Hall effect. Although such states have been predicted to occur in three…

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…
When an electron is confined to a triangular atomic thick layer of graphene [1-5] with zig-zag edges, its energy spectrum collapses to a shell of degenerate states at the Fermi level (Dirac point) [6-9]. The degeneracy is proportional to…
We show that there is an emergent lattice description for the continuous fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems, with a generalised set of few-body coherent states. In particular, model Hamiltonians of the FQH effect are equivalent to the…
This paper reviews progress on the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect (FQHE) based on what we term hamiltonian theories, i.e., theories that proceed from the microscopic electronic hamiltonian to the final solution via a sequence of…
I review some aspects of an alternative model of the quantum Hall effect, which is not based on the presence of disorder potentials. Instead, a quantization of the electronic drift current in the presence of crossed electric and magnetic…
