A two-dimensional quantum Hall system is studied for a wide class of potentials including single-body random potentials and repulsive electron-electron interactions. We assume that there exists a non-zero excitation gap above the ground…
We reexamine the charge transport induced by a weak electric field in two-dimensional quantum Hall systems in a finite, periodic box at very low temperatures. The resulting linear response coefficients consist of the time-independent term…
We present a direct numerical evidence for reflection symmetry of longitudinal resistivity $\rho_{xx}$ and quantized Hall resistivity $\rho_{xy}$ near the transition between $\nu=1$ quantum Hall state and insulator, in accord with the…
When phonons couple to fermions in 2D semimetals, the interaction may turn the system into an insulator. There are several insulating phases in which the time reversal and the sublattice symmetries are spontaneously broken. Examples are…
We present experimental results on the quantized Hall insulator in two dimensions. This insulator, with vanishing conductivities, is characterized by the quantization (within experimental accuracy) of the Hall resistance in units of the…
The Hall conductance $\sigma_{xy}$ of two-dimensional {\it lattice} electrons with random potential is investigated. The change of $\sigma_{xy}$ due to randomness is focused on. It is a quantum phase transition where the {\it sum rule} of…
Topological superconductors may undergo transitions between phases with different topological numbers which, like the case of topological insulators, are related to the presence of gapless (Majorana) edge states. In $\mathbb{Z}$ topological…
The scaling behavior of the quantum phase transition from an insulator to a quantum Hall plateau state has often been examined within systems realizing Landau levels. We study the topological transition in energy band models with nonzero…
We have conducted an experimental study of the linear transport properties of the magnetic-field induced insulating phase which terminates the quantum Hall (QH) series in two dimensional electron systems. We found that a direct and simple…
It is shown that the statements about the observation of the transitions between the insulating phase and the integer quantum Hall effect phases with the quantized Hall conductivity $\sigma_{xy}^{q}$ $\geq 3e^{2}/h$ made in a number of…
Direct transitions, driven by disorder, from several integral quantum Hall states to an insulator have been observed in experiment. This finding is enigmatic in light of a theoretical phase diagram, based on rather general considerations,…
The diagonal conductivity $\sigma_{xx}$ was measured in the Corbino geometry in both integer and fractional quantum Hall effect (QHE). We find that peak values of $\sigma_{xx}$ are approximately equal for transitions in a wide range of…
Bosonic Integer Quantum Hall (IQH) phases are a class of symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases that, similar to the fermionic IQH states, support a quantized Hall conductance. They, however, require interactions for their realization.…
We present an analytical scaling theory for localization in a two-dimensional hierarchical network model that is designed to represent phase-coherent electron transport in the quantum-Hall regime. Scaling expressions for both the…
The spontaneous interlayer phase coherent (111) state of bi-layer Quantum Hall system at filling factor $\nu=1$ may be viewed as a condensate of interlayer particle-hole pairs or excitons. We show in this paper that when the layers are…
The surface states of topological insulators, which behave as charged massless Dirac fermions, are studied in the presence of a quantizing uniform magnetic field. Using the method of D.H. Lee[1], analytical formula satisfied by the energy…
We derive electromagnetomotive force fields for charged particles moving in a rotating Hall sample, satisfying a twofold U(1) gauge invariance principle. It is then argued that the phase coherence property of quantization of the line…
We show that fully-localized, three-dimensional, time-reversal-symmetry-broken insulators do not belong to a single phase of matter but can realize topologically distinct phases that are labelled by integers. The phase transition occurs…
We measure the Hall conductivity, $\sigma_{xy}$, on a Corbino geometry sample of a high-mobility AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure in a pulsed magnetic field. At a bath temperature about 80 mK, we observe well expressed plateaux in $\sigma_{xy}$…
A simple physical realization of an integer quantum Hall state of interacting two dimensional bosons is provided. This is an example of a "symmetry-protected topological" (SPT) phase which is a generalization of the concept of topological…
