We consider electrons in two dimensions in a strong magnetic field at half filling of the lowest Landau level using the Chern-Simons approach. Starting from a lattice Hamiltonian for the electrons, we derive a path integral (PI) formulation…
The physics of two-dimensional electron gas in a perpendicular magnetic field, i.e., the quantum Hall system, is remarkably rich. At half filling of the lowest Landau level, it has been predicted that ``composite fermions'' -- emergent…

Motivated by the observation of even denominator fractional quantum Hall effect in the $n=3$ Landau level of monolayer graphene [Y. Kim $\textit{et al.}$, Nature Physics $\textbf{15}$, 154 (2019)], we consider a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer…
We find that for the pure Coulomb repulsion the composite Fermi sea at $\nu=1/2$ is on the verge of an instability to triplet pairing of composite fermions. It is argued that a transition into the paired state, described by a Pfaffian wave…
The concept of composite fermions, and the related Fermion-Chern-Simons theory, have been powerful tools for understanding quantum Hall systems with a partially full lowest Landau level. We shall review some of the successes of the…
An inaccuracy of composite fermion model is identified for Landau level fillings out of 1/p, p odd. The corrected version of hierarchy for fractional quantum Hall effect is proposed by mapping onto integer effect within the cyclotron braid…

The flux quanta attachment to the electrons creates composite fermions (CFs). The mass, the size and the density of the CF are inconsistent with real material. The sequence of fractional charges which suggest formation of CF agrees with the…
The low-energy excitations of filled Landau levels (LL's) of electrons involve promotion of a single electron from the topmost filled LL to the lowest empty LL. These are called excitons or collective modes. The incompressible fractional…
