We consider the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) at the filling factor $8/17$, where signatures of incompressibility have been observed in the zeroth Landau level of bilayer graphene. We propose an Abelian state described by the…

Neutral excitations in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) fluids define the incompressibility of topological phases, a species of which can show graviton-like behaviors and are thus called the graviton modes (GMs). Here, we develop the…

Fascinating structures have arisen from the study of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) at the even denominator fraction of $5/2$. We consider the FQHE at another even denominator fraction, namely $\nu=2+3/8$, where a well-developed…

We have tested Haldane's ``fractional-Pauli-principle'' description of excitations around the $\nu = 1/3$ state in the FQHE, using exact results for small systems of electrons. We find that Haldane's prediction $\beta = \pm 1/m$ for…

The fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) is a canonical example of a topological phase in a correlated 2D electron gas under strong magnetic field. While electric currents propagate as chiral downstream edge modes, chargeless upstream…

Fractional quantum Hall effect energy gaps have been measured in GaAs/GaAlAs heterojunctions as a function of Zeeman energy, which is varied by applying hydrostatic pressure up to 20 kbar. The gap at v=1/3 decreases with pressure until the…

There are compelling reasons to seek a new coherent description of the Quantum Hall Effects (QHE). The theories of the `Integer' (IQHE) and the `Fractional' (FQHE) quantum Hall effects are very different at present, despite their remarkable…
