The Langlands program is a vast mathematical projection linking number theory and geometry. In high-energy physics, a connection with mirror symmetry has been suggested in string theory, but it has been little studied in low-energy physics.…

A theory of integer quantum Hall effect(QHE) in realistic systems based on von Neumann lattice is presented. We show that the momentum representation is quite useful and that the quantum Hall regime(QHR), which is defined by the propagator…
We discuss the relationship between the quantum Hall conductance and a fractal energy band structure, Hofstadter's butterfly, on a square lattice under a magnetic field. At first, we calculate the Hall conductance of Hofstadter's butterfly…
It is shown, that a spectrum generating algebras and wave functions for the integral and fractional quantum Hall effect are related by the non-unitary similarity transformation. This transformation corresponds to the introduction of the…
We extensively study the localization and the quantum Hall effect in the Hofstadter butterfly, which emerges in a two-dimensional electron system with a weak two-dimensional periodic potential. We numerically calculate the Hall conductivity…
For a three-dimensional lattice in magnetic fields we have shown that the hopping along the third direction, which normally tends to smear out the Landau quantization gaps, can rather give rise to a fractal energy spectram akin to…
The quantum Hall effect is investigated in a high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas on the surface of a cylinder. The novel topology leads to a spatially varying filling factor along the current path. The resulting inhomogeneous…
Up to almost the last two decades all the experimental results concerning the quantum Hall effect (QHE), i.e., the observation of plateaux at integer (IQHE) or fractional (FQHE) values of the constant h/e2, were related to quantum-wells in…

The Langlands Program was launched in the late 60s with the goal of relating Galois representations and automorphic forms. In recent years a geometric version has been developed which leads to a mysterious duality between certain categories…
