We propose a unifying theory for both the integral and fractional quantum Hall regimes. This theory reconciles the Finkelstein approach to localization and interaction effects with the topological issues of an instanton vacuum and…

We consider the fractal characteristic of the quantum mechanical paths and we obtain for any universal class of fractons labeled by the Hausdorff dimension defined within the interval 1$ $$ < $$ $$h$$ $$ <$$ $$ 2$, a fractal distribution…
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…
