By considering N_e-electrons and N_h-holes together in uniform external magnetic and electric fields, we end up with a total Hall conductivity \sigma_{H}^{tot}, which is depending to the difference between N_e and N_h and becomes null when…
We show that different universal values can be obtained for the two-terminal conductance of a fractional quantum Hall state. At large voltages, or strong coupling, the conductance of a point-like tunneling junction between an electron gas…
We address the question of whether fractionally filled bands with a nontrivial Chern index in zero external field could also exhibit a Fractional Quantum Hall Effect (FQHE). Numerical works suggest this is possible. Analytic treatments are…
The effective field theory of the fractional quantum Hall edge is reformulated from microscopic dynamics. Noncommutative Chern-Simons theory is a microscopic description for the quantum Hall fluid. We use it for reference. Considering…
A central property of Chern insulators is the robustness of the topological phase and edge states to impurities in the system. Despite this, Chern number cannot be straightforwardly calculated in the presence of disorder. Recently, work has…
