We present a detailed study of the ground-state entanglement in disordered fractional quantum Hall liquids. We consider electrons at various filling fractions $f$ in the lowest Landau level, with Coulomb interactions. At $f=1/3,1/5$ and…

It is known that gauge fields defined on manifolds with spatial boundaries support states localized at the boundaries. In this paper, we demonstrate how coarse-graining over these states can lead to an entanglement entropy. In particular,…

In the presence of a scattering potential, electron transport in a quantum wire is known to be dramatically modified by backward scattering and unaffected by forward scattering processes. We show that the scenario is quite different in…

The dominance of interactions over kinetic energy lies at the heart of strongly correlated quantum matter, from fractional quantum Hall liquids, to atoms in optical lattices and twisted bilayer graphene. Crystalline phases often compete…

We use a novel sample geometry to study non-local effects of edge excitations in the integer quantum Hall effect regime. We find that the condition of local equilibrium at the quantum Hall edge is affected by the diffusion of dynamically…
