We show that chiral edge states in graphene under Quantum Hall effect conditions can be selectively probed and excited by terahertz or infrared radiation with single-quasiparticle sensitivity without affecting bulk states. Moreover,…
It is known that the 3d Chern-Simons interaction describes the scaling limit of a quantum Hall system and predicts edge currents in a sample with boundary, the currents generating a chiral $U(1)$ Kac-Moody algebra. It is no doubt also…
The effective action for low-energy excitations of Laughlin's states is obtained by systematic expansion in inverse powers of the magnetic field. It is based on the W-infinity symmetry of quantum incompressible fluids and the associated…

We use Pseudo Quantum Electrodynamics to study massive (2+1)D Dirac systems interacting electromagnetically via a U(1) gauge field in (3+1)D. It was recently found in Ref. [1], that an interaction-induced Quantum Hall Effect (QHE) and…
We consider the behaviour of quantum Hall edges away from the Luttinger liquid fixed point that occurs in the low energy, large system limit. Using the close links between quantum Hall wavefunctions and conformal field theories we construct…
Following recent work on the quantum Hall effect on $S^4$, we solve the Landau problem on the complex projective spaces ${\bf C}P^k$ and discuss quantum Hall states for such spaces. Unlike the case of $S^4$, a finite spatial density can be…
We propose a pseudo-potential Hamiltonian for the Zhang-Hu's generalized fractional quantum Hall states to be the exact and unique ground states. Analogously to Laughlin's quasi-hole (quasi-particle), the excitations in the generalized…
We study bosonic and fermionic quantum two-leg ladders with orbital magnetic flux. In such systems, the ratio, $\nu$, of particle density to magnetic flux shapes the phase-space, as in quantum Hall effects. In fermionic (bosonic) ladders,…
The integer quantum Hall effect is a topological state of quantum matter in two dimensions, and has recently been observed in three-dimensional topological insulator thin films. Here we study the Landau levels and edge states of surface…
The quantum Hall effect emerges when two-dimensional samples are subjected to strong magnetic fields at low temperatures: Topologically protected edge states cause a quantized Hall conductivity in multiples of $e^2/h$. Here we show that the…
