After showing that the magnetic translation operators are not the symmetries of the QHE on non-flat surfaces , we show that there exist another set of operators which leads to the quantum group symmetries for some of these surfaces . As a…
We study the Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev SU(2) invariant for the Seifert manifold $S^3/\Gamma$ where $\Gamma$ is a finite subgroup of SU(2). We show that the WRT invariants can be written in terms of the Eichler integral of the modular…
The $\nu=\frac{5}{2}$ fractional quantum Hall effect is of experimental and theoretical interest due to the possible non-Abelian statistics of the excitations in the electron liquid. A small voltage difference across a sample applied in…

We derive, from first principles, the complete Luttinger liquid theory of abelian quantum Hall edge states. This theory includes the effects of disorder and Coulomb interactions as well as the coupling to external electromagnetic fields. We…
We reanalyse theoretical considerations and experimental data, in an attempt to decide hether there is another scale in the fractional quantum Hall effect problem, in addition to the magnetic scale defined by the magnetic length $a_c$ or…
The ac Josephson effect phenomenon is studied in fractional quantum Hall states (FQHS). Usual quantum Hall devices have an electron layer of uniform thickness. We consider a new quantum Hall device. The device has a narrow part that is…
We show that a large class of incompressible quantum Hall states correspond to different representations of the \Winf algebra by explicit construction of the second quantized generators of the algebra in terms of fermion and vortex…
Quantum Hall effects with multicomponent internal degrees of freedom facilitate the playground of novel emergent topological orders. Here, we explore the correlated topological phases of two-component hardcore bosons at a total filling…
Numerical studies by W\'ojs, Yi and Quinn have suggested that an unconventional fractional quantum Hall effect is plausible at filling factors $\nu=$ 1/3 and 1/5, provided the interparticle interaction has an unusual form for which the…
Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard arrays provide unique opportunities for quantum emulation as they exhibit convenient state preparation and measurement, and in-situ tuning of parameters. We show how to realise strongly correlated states of light in…
The meaning of quantum group transformation properties is discussed in some detail by comparing the (co)actions of the quantum group with those of the corresponding Lie group, both of which have the same algebraic (matrix) form of the…
In this paper, we explore a two-way connection between quasimodular forms of depth $1$ and a class of second-order modular differential equations with regular singularities on the upper half-plane and the cusps. Here we consider the cases…
When phonons couple to fermions in 2D semimetals, the interaction may turn the system into an insulator. There are several insulating phases in which the time reversal and the sublattice symmetries are spontaneously broken. Examples are…
Several recent works have proposed that electron-electron interactions in bilayer graphene can be tuned with the help of external parameters, making it possible to stabilize different fractional quantum Hall states. In these prior works,…
A two-dimensional harmonic oscillator, when rotated by the oscillator frequency, generates Landau-like levels. A further cranking results in condensates and gaps resembling the fractional quantum Hall effect. For a filling fraction…
We study the partition function for the low-energy edge excitations of the incompressible electron fluid. On an annular geometry, these excitations have opposite chiralities on the two edges; thus, the partition function takes the standard…
We derive electromagnetomotive force fields for charged particles moving in a rotating Hall sample, satisfying a twofold U(1) gauge invariance principle. It is then argued that the phase coherence property of quantization of the line…
We have studied the partially spin-polarized fractional quantum Hall states using Chern Simon's theory and plasma picture proposed by Halperin. Using these theoretical techniques we have tried to find the stable polarized states of…
We construct effective $\mathrm{U}(2)$ Chern-Simons-Ginzburg-Landau theories for Abelian and non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall hierarchies for those which had previously been described only through categorical data or trial wavefunctions.…
