We investigate the relationship of the spontaneously inter-layer coherent ``111''state of quantum Hall bilayers at total filling factor \nu=1 to ``mutual'' composite fermions, in which vortices in one layer are bound to electrons in the…
We introduce a new variational wavefunction for a quantum Hall bilayer at total filling $\nu = 1$, which is based on $s$-wave BCS pairing between composite-fermion electrons in one layer and composite-fermion holes in the other. We compute…

The eigenstates of interacting electrons in the fractional quantum Hall phase typically form fairly well defined bands in the energy space. We show that the composite fermion theory gives insight into the origin of these bands and provides…
Quantum Hall bilayer systems at filling fractions near \nu = 1/2 + 1/2 undergo a transition from a compressible phase with strong intralayer correlation to an incompressible phase with strong interlayer correlations as the layer separation…
Vortices can form when finite quantal systems are set to rotate. In the limit of small particle numbers the vortex formation in a harmonically trapped fermion system, with repulsively interacting particles, shows similarities to the…
