The unexpected appearance of a fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) plateau at $\nu=2+6/13$~ [Kumar \emph{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 105}, 246808 (2010)] offers a clue into the physical mechanism of the FQHE in the second Landau level…
The fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) states at half integer Landau fillings ($\nu$) have long been of great interest, since they have correlations that differ from those of the fundamental Laughlin states found at odd denominators. At…
I give a non-technical account of fractional statistics in one dimension. In systems with periodic boundary conditions, the crossing of anyons is always uni-directional, and the fractional phase $\theta$ acquired by the anyons gives rise to…

Floquet theory describes quantum systems governed by time-periodic Hamiltonians, much as Bloch theory describes spatially periodic solids. In voltage-biased multiterminal Josephson junctions, the Josephson relation causes superconducting…
A defining property of particles is their behavior under exchange. In two dimensions anyons can exist which, opposed to fermions and bosons, gain arbitrary relative phase factors or even undergo a change of their type. In the latter case…
