We construct effective field theories of the quantum skyrmion Hall effect from matrix Chern-Simons theory for $N$ electrons, corresponding to matrix dimension $N$. We first consider a quantum Hall droplet within finite $N$ matrix…

We demonstrate that topological constraints do not only dictate the geometric part of the superfluid stiffness, but can also govern the total superfluid stiffness. By introducing a general adiabatic approach for superfluid responses, we…
Weakly disordered superconducting films can be driven into an anomalous low temperature resistive state upon applying a magnetic field. Recent experiments on weakly disordered amorphous InO$_x$ have established that both the Hall…
Two-dimensional non-interacting fermions without any anti-unitary symmetries generically get Anderson localized in the presence of disorder. In contrast, topological superconductors with their inherent particle-hole symmetry can host a…
The study of the non-linear anomalous Hall effect (NLAHE) in $\mathcal{P}\mathcal{T}$-symmetric systems has focussed on intrinsic mechanisms. Here we show that disorder contributes substantially to NLAHE and often overwhelms intrinsic…
