The tunneling density of states exhibits anomalies (cusps, algebraic suppressions, and pseudogaps) at the Fermi energy in a wide variety of low-dimensional and strongly correlated electron systems. We argue that in many cases these spectral…
A general nonperturbative theory of the low-energy electron propagator is developed and used to calculate the single-particle density of states in a variety of systems. This method involves the decoupling of the electron-electron…

We report on a study of interaction effects in the tunneling density-of-states of a disordered two-dimensional electron gas in the strong magnetic field limit where only the lowest Landau level is occupied. Interactions in the presence of…
In previous work we have proposed that the non-Fermi-liquid spectral properties in a variety of low-dimensional and strongly correlated electron systems are caused by the infrared catastrophe, and we used an exact functional integral…
We show that gapless plasmons lead to a universal $(\delta\nu(\epsilon)/\nu\propto |\epsilon|/E_F)$ correction to the tunneling density of states of a clean two dimensional Coulomb interacting electron gas. We also discuss a counterpart of…
We study tunneling into interacting disordered two-dimensional electron gas in a non-quantizing magnetic field, which does not cause the standard de Haas-- van Alphen oscillations. Interaction induces a new type of oscillations in the…
We study the intra-planar tunneling between quantum Hall samples separated by a quasi one-dimensional barrier, induced through the interaction of edge degrees of freedom with the charge density waves of a Hall crystal defined in a parallel…
The double-layer electron system with total filling factor $\nu=1/2$ can be regarded as two separate Fermi-liquid-like states with $\nu=1/4$ when the layer separation is sufficiently large and there is no tunneling. The weak tunneling in…
Tunnelling density of states in the vicinity of Fermi level of a two-dimensional electron gas subjected to an external parallel and zeroth magnetic field is calculated. It reveals a pseudo-gap recently observed in the experiments. The gap…
At strong magnetic fields double-layer two-dimensional-electron-gas systems can form an unusual broken symmetry state with spontaneous inter-layer phase coherence. The system can be mapped to an equivalent system of pseudospin $1/2$…
We present a composite fermion theory of tunneling into the edge of a compressible quantum Hall system. The tunneling conductance is non-ohmic, due to slow relaxation of electromagnetic and Chern-Simons field disturbances caused by the…
We have introduced a controllable nano-scale incursion into a potential barrier imposed across a two-dimensional electron gas, and report on the phenomena that we observe as the incursion develops. In the quantum Hall regime, the…
Tunneling of fractionally charged quasi-particles (QPs) through a barrier is considered in the context of a multiply connected geometry. In this geometry global constraints do not prohibit such a tunneling process. The tunneling amplitude…
We use a method of matched asymptotics to determine the energy gap of two counter-propagating, strongly interacting, quantum Hall edge states. The microscopic edge state dispersion and Coulomb interactions are used to precisely constrain…
