The effective fractional charges like 17/4 or 19/4 are explained by our angular momentum theory. These fractions do not arise from the odd denominator rule. Due to spin polarization for both of these along the magnetic field, these states…

The concept of fractional charge is central to the theory of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE). Here I use exact diagonalization as well as configuration space renormalization (CSR) to study finite clusters which are large enough to…

The fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect arises from strong electron correlations in a quantising magnetic field, and features exotic emergent phenomena such as electron fractionalisation. Using the diagrammatic Monte Carlo approach with…
