We show here that an extension of the Hamiltonian theory developed by us over the years furnishes a composite fermion (CF) description of the $\nu =\frac{1}{2}$ state that is particle-hole (PH) symmetric, has a charge density that obeys the…
One of the most spectacular experimental findings in the fractional quantum Hall effect is evidence for an emergent Fermi surface when the electron density is nearly half the density of magnetic flux quanta ($\nu = 1/2$). The seminal work…
We study a set of many-body wave-functions of Fermions that are naturally written using momentum space basis and allow for quantum superposition of Fermion occupancy, $\{n_{\bf k}\}$. This {enables} us to capture the fluctuations of the…
Composite Fermi liquids (CFLs) are compressible states that can occur for 2D interacting fermions confined in the lowest Landau level at certain Landau level fillings. They have been understood as Fermi seas formed by composite fermions…
A theory is developed for the paired even-denominator fractional quantum Hall states in the lowest Landau level. We show that electrons bind to quantized vortices to form composite fermions, interacting through an exact instantaneous…

It has been observed that the composite fermion (CF) approach tends to overcount the number of linearly independent candidate states for fixed sets of quantum numbers [number of particles, total angular momentum, and (pseudo)spin if…
Composite fermions provide a simple and unified picture to understand a vast amount of phenomenology in the quantum Hall regime. However it has remained challenging to formulate this concept properly within a single Landau level. Recently a…
We propose a fermion Chern-Simons field theory describing two- dimensional electrons in the lowest Landau level. This theory is constructed with a complete set of states, and the lowest Landau level constraint is enforced through a…
Composite fermion wavefuctions have been used to describe electrons in a strong magnetic field. We show that the polynomial part of these wavefunctions can be obtained by applying a normal ordered product of suitably defined annihilation…
The pairing of composite fermions (CFs), electron-flux quasi-particles, is commonly proposed to explain the even-denominator fractional quantum Hall state observed at $\nu=5/2$ in the first excited ($N=1$) Landau level (LL) of a…
The ground state at 4/11 filling factor is very well understood [Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 016801 (2014)] in terms of the 1/3 filled second effective Landau level of the composite fermions whose correlations resemble with that of electrons in…
We demonstrate the formation of composite fermions in two-dimensional quantum dots under high magnetic fields. The composite fermion interpretation provides a simple way to understand several qualitative and quantitative features of the…
We construct a family of BCS paired composite fermion wavefunctions that generalize, but remain in the same topological phase as, the Moore-Read Pfaffian state for the half-filled Landau level. It is shown that for a wide range of…
The Jain theory of hierarchical Hall states is reconsidered in the light of recent analyses that have found exact relations between projected Jain wavefunctions and conformal field theory correlators. We show that the underlying conformal…
We construct an action for the composite Dirac fermion consistent with symmetries of electrons projected to the lowest Landau level. First we construct a generalization of the $g=2$ electron that gives a smooth massless limit on any curved…
The mean field (MF) composite Fermion (CF) picture successfully predicts low lying states of fractional quantum Hall systems. This success cannot be attributed to a cancellation between Coulomb and Chern-Simons interactions beyond the mean…
Theory predicts that double layer systems realize "two-component composite fermions," which are formed when electrons capture both intra- and inter-layer vortices, to produce a wide variety of new strongly correlated liquid and crystal…
Laughlin's wave functions, describing the fractional quantum Hall effect at filling factors $\nu=1/(2k+1)$, can be obtained as correlation functions in conformal field theory, and recently this construction was extended to Jain's composite…
Composite fermions (CFs) are the particles underlying the novel phenomena observed in partially filled Landau levels. Both microscopic wave functions and semi-classical dynamics suggest that a CF is a dipole consisting of an electron and a…
