We compute the quantized Hall conductance at various Landau levels by using the classic trace. The computations reduce to the single elementary one for the lowest Landau level. By using the theories of Helton-Howe-Carey-Pincus, and Toeplitz…

Kubo formula gives a linear response of a quantum system to external fields, which are classical and weak with respect to the energy of the system. In this work, we take the quantum nature of the external field into account, and define a…

The Hall conductivity given by the Kubo formula is a linear response of the quantum transverse transport to a weak electric field. It has been intensively studied for a quantum system without decoherence, but it is barely explored for…

Topological states of matter are characterized by topological invariant, which are physical quantities whose values are quantized and do not depend on details of the measured system. Of these, the easiest to probe in experiments is the…
