It has been well-known that topological phenomena with fractional excitations, i.e., the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) \cite{Tsui1982} will emerge when electrons move in Landau levels. In this letter, we report the discovery of the…
The Read-Rezayi wave function is one of the candidates for the fractional quantum Hall effect at filling fraction $\nu=2+\nicefrac{3}{5}$, and thereby also its hole conjugate at $2+\nicefrac{2}{5}$. We study a general class of "tripartite"…
