We propose a new formula that extracts the quantum Hall conductance from a single (2+1)D gapped wavefunction. The formula applies to general many-body systems that conserve particle number, and is based on the concept of modular flow: i.e.,…

In a two-dimensional electron gas, the quantized Hall conductance can be induced by a strong magnetic field, known as the quantum Hall effect, and it can also result from the strong exchange coupling of magnetic ions, dubbed as the "quantum…

The mapping between the metal-insulator transition of the quantum Hall system and a superfluid-to-insulator transition is revisited based on a disordered anyon model. The one-parameter scaling of the superfluid-to-insulator transition is…

It is shown that the flow diagrams for the conductivities in the quantum Hall effect, arising from two ostensibly very different proposals based on modular symmetry, are in fact identical. The beta-functions are different, the rate at which…

The "quantum duality principle" states that a quantisation of a Lie bialgebra provides also a quantisation of the dual formal Poisson group and, conversely, a quantisation of a formal Poisson group yields a quantisation of the dual Lie…
