For certain measurements, the Corbino geometry has a distinct advantage over the Hall and van der Pauw geometries, in that it provides a direct probe of the bulk 2DEG without complications due to edge effects. This may be important in…
We formulate the $O(3) \s-$ model on fuzzy sphere and construct the Hopf term. We show that the field can be expanded in terms of the ladder operators of Holstein-Primakoff realisation of SU(2) algebra and the corresponding basis set can be…
A two-dimensional quantum Hall system without disorder for a wide class of interactions including any two-body interaction with finite range is studied by using the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis method [{\it Ann. Phys. (N.Y.)} {\bf 16}: 407 (1961)].…
Electrons in graphene have four flavors associated with low-energy spin and valley degrees of freedom. The fractional quantum Hall effect in graphene is dominated by long-range Coulomb interactions which are invariant under rotations in…
In the plane-wave matrix model, the background configuration of two membrane fuzzy spheres, one of which rotates around the other one in the SO(6) symmetric space, is allowed as a classical solution. We study the one-loop quantum…

Continuum models for time-reversal (TR) invariant topological insulators (TIs) in $d \geq 3$ dimensions are provided by harmonic oscillators coupled to certain $SO(d)$ gauge fields. These models are equivalent to the presence of spin-orbit…
