We study the fractional quantum Hall effect in a bilayer with charge-distribution imbalance induced, for instance, by a bias gate voltage. The bilayer can either be intrinsic or it can be formed spontaneously in wide quantum wells, due to…
Despite fermion doubling, a two-dimensional quasi-relativistic spin-1/2 system can still lead to true fractionalization of electrical charge, when a massive ordered phase supports a "half-vortex". Such topological defect is possible when…

We derive the effective field theory from the microscopic Hamiltonian of interacting two-dimensional (pseudo) Dirac electrons by performing a statistic gauge transformation. The quantized Hall conductance are expected to be…
It is argued that fractional quantum Hall effect wavefunctions can be interpreted as conformal blocks of two-dimensional conformal field theory. Fractional statistics can be extended to nonabelian statistics and examples can be constructed…
I discuss results bearing on a variational problem of a new type, inspired by fractional quantum Hall physics. In the latter context, the main result reviewed herein can be spelled as "the phase of independent quasi-holes generated from…
We study the non-conservation of the chiral charge of Dirac fields between past and future null infinity due to the Adler-Bell-Jackiw chiral anomaly. In previous investigations \cite{dR21}, we found that this charge fails to be conserved if…
An approach to understand Fractional Quantum Hall Effect (FQHE) using anomalies is studied in this paper. More specifically, this is done by looking at the anomaly in the current conservation equation of a WZNW theory describing fields…
We propose a device, consisting of a Hall bar with two weak barriers, that can be used to study quantum interference effects in a strongly correlated system. We show how the device provides a way of measuring the fractional charge and…
Within the newly formulated composite fermion hierarchy the filling fraction of a spherical quantum Hall system is obtained when it can be expressed as an odd or even denominator fraction. A plot of $\nu\frac{2S}{N-1}$ as a function of $2S$…
We construct an algebraic description for the ground state and for the static response of the quantum Hall plateaux with filling factor $\nu=N/(2N+1)$ in the large $N$ limit. By analyzing the algebra of the fluctuations of the shape of the…
Stationary solutions of the Chern-Simons effective field theory for the fractional quantum Hall systems with edges are presented for Hall bar, disk and annulus. In the infinitely long Hall bar geometry (non compact case), the charge density…
We consider a collection of fermions in a strong magnetic field coupled by a purely three body repulsive interaction, and predict the formation of composite fermions, leading to a remarkably rich phase diagram containing a host of…
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 extend the Composite Boson theory to study slightly im-balanced bi-layer Quantum Hall systems. In the global $ U(1) $ symmetry breaking excitonic superfluid side, as the imbalance increases, the system supports continuously changing…
Extensive fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) has been observed in graphene-based materials. Some of the observed fractions are anomalous in that FQHE has not been established at these fractions in conventional GaAs systems. One such…
A composite fermion edge state theory of current fluctuations, fractional quasiparticle charge and Johnson-Nyquist noise in the fractional quantum Hall regime is presented. It is shown that composite fermion current fluctuations and the…
We review the recently proposed Dirac composite fermion theory of the half-filled Landau level.
It is demonstrated that all observed fractions at moderate Landau level fillings in the quantum Hall effect can be obtained without recourse to the phenomenological concept of composite fermions. The possibility to have the special…
Fractional derivatives and integrations of non-integers orders was introduced more than three centuries ago but only recently gained more attention due to its application on nonlocal phenomenas. In this context, several formulations of…
