The Coulomb interaction is widely known to enhance the effective mass of interacting particles and therefore tends to favor a localized state at commensurate filling. Here, we will show that, in contrast to this consensus, in a van der…
In a graphene Landau level (LL), strong Coulomb interactions and the fourfold spin/valley degeneracy lead to an approximate SU(4) isospin symmetry. At partial filling, exchange interactions can spontaneously break this symmetry, manifesting…
