I argue that the Hodge structure on a Euclidean Clifford algebra $Cl(n)$ provides a way to generalise K\"ahler structure to higher dimensions, in the sense that the paired variables are now associated with $k-$ and $(n-k)-$ dimensional…
We propose a (4+1) dimensional Chern-Simons field theoretical description of the fractional quantum Hall effect. It suggests that composite fermions reside on a momentum manifold with a nonzero Chern number. Based on derivations from…
We propose field theories for the bulk and edge of a quantum Hall state in the universality class of the Haldane-Rezayi wavefunction. The bulk theory is associated with the $c=-2$ conformal field theory. The topological properties of the…
