Some theories predict that the filling factor 5/2 fractional quantum Hall state can exhibit non-Abelian statistics, which makes it a candidate for fault-tolerant topological quantum computation. Although the non-Abelian Pfaffian state and…
Past studies of fractional quantum Hall systems have found that the charge gap dominates the neutral gap for all relevant parameter choices. We report a wide-ranging proof that this domination is in fact a universal property of any…
We consider a quaternately generalized Pfaffian QGPf$(\frac{1}{J(z_i,z_j,z_k,z_l)})[J(z_1,...,z_N)]^2$ in which the square of Vandermonde determinant, $[J(z_1,...,z_N)]^2$, implies the upmost Landau level is half filled. This wave function…

The Moore-Read Pfaffian $\nu=5/2$ quantum Hall state is a p-wave super-conductor of composite fermions. Small deviations from $\nu=5/2$ result in the formation of an array of vortices within this super-conductor, each supporting a Majorana…
