It is demonstrated that an understanding of the 5/2 fractional quantum Hall effect can be achieved within the composite fermion theory without appealing to the Pfaffian wave function. The residual interaction between composite fermions…
By developing a canonical approach that is exact, physically transparent and subtly different from standard methods, we present a systematic study with exact analytical calculations based on a Landau Level (LL) picture of the energetics of…
We develop a phenomenological description of the nu=5/2 quantum Hall state in which the Halperin-Lee-Read theory of the half-filled Landau level is combined with a p-wave pairing interaction between composite fermions (CFs). The…
One of the most spectacular experimental findings in the fractional quantum Hall effect is evidence for an emergent Fermi surface when the electron density is nearly half the density of magnetic flux quanta ($\nu = 1/2$). The seminal work…
We demonstrate that formulating the composite-fermion theory of the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect in terms of quaternions greatly expands its reach and opens the door into many interesting issues that were previously beyond the reach…
Highly nonlocal interparticle correlations in quantum Hall states of 2D charged system exposed to the perpendicular strong magnetic field are detailed by application of the commensurability condition upon path-integral quantization approach…
We consider electrons in two dimensions in a strong magnetic field at half filling of the lowest Landau level using the Chern-Simons approach. Starting from a lattice Hamiltonian for the electrons, we derive a path integral (PI) formulation…
We investigate theoretically the low-temperature physics of a two-component ultracold mixture of bosons and fermions in disordered optical lattices. We focus on the strongly correlated regime. We show that, under specific conditions,…
We find that the composite fermion (CF), which is the magnetic flux quanta attached to the electron, although based on experimentally observed fractions in the quantum Hall effect, is inconsistent with the classical electrodynamics. It…
Jinwu Ye has shown that two flux quanta are attached in one layer while the electron is in the other layer to form a mutually composite fermion (MCF). This idea is based on an earlier idea that CF are formed by attaching two flux quanta to…
We formulate the Kohn-Sham equations for the fractional quantum Hall effect by mapping the original electron problem into an auxiliary problem of composite fermions that experience a density dependent effective magnetic field.…
It is demonstrated that all observed fractions at moderate Landau level fillings for the quantum Hall effect can be obtained without recourse to the phenomenological concept of composite fermions. The possibility to have the special…
Recent experimental observations of the fractional quantum anomalous Hall effect in spin/valley polarized moir\'{e} systems call for a more expansive theoretical exploration of strongly correlated physics in partially filled topological…
We discuss the possibility of the quantum Hall effect at half-filled Landau level in terms of the pairing of the composite fermions. In the absence of Coulomb energy, we show that the ground state of the system is described by the {\it…
We find that the work of Ichinose requires far too many quasiparticles. As a result too many parameters are introduced to fit the mass of a composite fermion (CF) and hence experimentally, it will not be possible to identify all of such…
Over the past few years one of us (Murthy) in collaboration with R. Shankar has developed an extended Hamiltonian formalism capable of describing the ground state and low energy excitations in the fractional quantum Hall regime. The…
The heavy fermion systems present a unique platform in which strong electronic correlations give rise to a host of novel, and often competing, electronic and magnetic ground states. Amongst a number of potential experimental tools at our…
While an ordinary Fermi sea is perturbatively robust to interactions, the paradigmatic composite-fermion (CF) Fermi sea arises as a non-perturbative consequence of emergent gauge fields in a system where there was no Fermi sea to begin…
The low energy physics of the fractional Hall liquid is described in terms quasiparticles that are qualitatively distinct from electrons. We show, however, that a long-lived electron-like quasiparticle also exists in the excitation…
