Rotationally invariant fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states have long been understood in terms of composite bosons or composite fermions. Recent investigations of both incompressible and compressible states in highly tilted fields, which…
We study the Quantum Hall phases that appear in the fast rotation limit for Bose-Einstein condensates of spinless bosonic atoms. We use exact diagonalization in a spherical geometry to obtain low-lying states of a small number of bosons as…
Hall viscosity, also known as the Lorentz shear modulus, has been proposed as a topological property of a quantum Hall fluid. Using a recent formulation of the composite fermion theory on the torus, we evaluate the Hall viscosities for a…
I demonstrate that the wavefunction for a nu = n+ tilde{nu} quantum Hall state with Landau levels 0,1,...,n-1 filled and a filling fraction tilde{nu} quantum Hall state with 0 < tilde{nu} \leq 1 in the nth Landau level can be obtained…
The Z_k-parafermion Hall state is an incompressible fluid of k-electron clusters generalizing the Pfaffian state of paired electrons. Extending our earlier analysis of the Pfaffian, we introduce two ``parent'' abelian Hall states which…
We study composite fermi liquid (CFL) states in the lowest Landau level (LLL) limit at a generic filling $\nu = \frac{1}{n}$. We begin with the old observation that, in compressible states, the composite fermion in the lowest Landau level…
We show here that an extension of the Hamiltonian theory developed by us over the years furnishes a composite fermion (CF) description of the $\nu =\frac{1}{2}$ state that is particle-hole (PH) symmetric, has a charge density that obeys the…
We study the interplay of particle-hole symmetry and fermion-vortex duality in multicomponent half-filled Landau levels, such as quantum Hall gallium arsenide bilayers and graphene. For the $\nu{=}1/2{+}1/2$ bilayer, we show that…
We consider spaces of trial wavefunctions for ground states and edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall effect that can be obtained in various ways. In one way, functions are obtained by analyzing the entanglement of the ground…
The exclusion statistics of quasiparticles is found at any level of the hierarchy of condensed states of composite fermion excitations (for which experimental indications have recently been found). The hierarchy of condensed states of…
An effective Hamiltonian for the study of the quantum Hall effect is proposed. This Hamiltonian, which includes a ``current-current" interaction has the form of a Hamiltonian for a conformal field theory in the large $N$ limit. An order…
We prove a generic spin-statistics relation for the fractional quasiparticles that appear in abelian quantum Hall states on the disk. The proof is based on an efficient way for computing the Berry phase acquired by a generic quasiparticle…
We demonstrate that formulating the composite-fermion theory of the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect in terms of quaternions greatly expands its reach and opens the door into many interesting issues that were previously beyond the reach…
Standard field theoretic formulations of composite fermion theories for the anomalous metals that form at or near even-denominator filling fractions of the lowest Landau level do not possess Galilei invariance. To restore Galilei symmetry,…
We show the explicit connection between two distinct and complementary approaches to the fractional quantum Hall system (FQHS): the quantum wires formalism and the topological low-energy effective description given in terms of an Abelian…
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 investigate the feasibility of many candidate quantum Hall states for two-component bosons in the lowest Landau level. We identify interactions for which spin-singlet incompressible states occur at filling factors $\nu=2/3$, 4/5 and 4/3,…
The Gutzwiller projection is shown to induce nontrivial correlation between the spinon and the holon in the slave Boson theory of the $t-J$ model. We find this correlation is responsible some subtle differences between the slave Boson mean…
In this work, we revisit the operator-state correspondence in the Majorana conformal field theory (CFT) with emphasis on its semion representation. Whereas the semion representation (or $Z_{2}$ extension of the chiral Ising CFT) gives a…
Originally proposed by Read [1] and Jain [2], the so-called "composite-fermion" is a phenomenological attachment of two infinitely thin local flux quanta seen as nonlocal vortices to two-dimensional (2D) electrons embedded in a strong…
