We study the quantum self-organization of interacting particles in one-dimensional(1D) many-body systems, modeled via Hubbard chains with short-range interactions between the particles. We show the emergence of 1D states with density-wave…
We derive a general scaling relation for the anomalous Hall effect in ferromagnetic metals involving multiple competing scattering mechanisms, described by a quadratic hypersurface in the space spanned by the partial resistivities. We also…
I examine a model for the Hall effect in the strongly correlated regime. It emerges from an approach proposed in my previous articles [e.g. J. Phys. Chem. Solids, 65 (2004), 1507-1515; J. Geom. Phys., in press, cf. math-ph/0409023]. The…

When the chemical potential of an electron system has a discontinuity at a density $n^{*}$, the system is said to be incompressible and a finite energy is required to create mobile charges in the bulk of the system. The quantum Hall effect…
A breakdown of integer quantum Hall effect (IQHE) at strong disorder is studied numerically in a lattice model. We find a generic sequence by which the integer quantum Hall plateaus disappear: higher IQHE plateaus always vanish earlier than…
In non-interacting systems, disorder can drive a trivial phase into a topological one. However little is known how to construct a fractional quantum Hall ground-state, a paradigmatic topologically ordered state, that exists both in…
We show that a sharp dependence of the Hall coefficient $R$ on the magnetic field $B$ arises in two-dimensional electron systems with randomly located strong scatterers. The phenomenon is due to classical memory effects. We calculate…
Stacked two dimensional electron systems in transverse magnetic fields exhibit three dimensional fractional quantum Hall phases. We analyze the simplest such phases and find novel bulk properties, e.g., irrational braiding. These phases…
