We consider the edge and bulk conductances for 2D quantum Hall systems in which the Fermi energy falls in a band where bulk states are localized. We show that the resulting quantities are equal, when appropriately defined. An appropriate…

The integral quantum Hall effect can be explained either as resulting from bulk or edge currents (or, as it occurs in real samples, as a combination of both). This leads to different definitions of Hall conductance, which agree under…

In this article we show that if the electrons in a quantum Hall sample are subjected to a constant electric field in the plane of the material, comparable in magnitude to the background magnetic field on the system of electrons, a…

We consider magnetic Schr\"odinger operators describing a quantum Hall effect setup both in the plane and in the half-plane. First, we study the structure and smoothness of the operator range of various powers of the half-plane resolvent.…

The edge Hall conductivity is shown to be an integer multiple of $e^2/h$ which is almost surely independent of the choice of the disordered configuration. Its equality to the bulk Hall conductivity given by the Kubo-Chern formula follows…

An effective Chern-Simons theory for the Abelian quantum Hall states with edges is proposed to study the edge and bulk properties in a unified fashion. We impose a condition that the currents do not flow outside the sample. With this…

The role of edge states in phenomena like the quantum Hall effect is well known. In this paper we show how the choice of boundary conditions for a one-particle Schr\"odinger equation can give rise to states localized at the edge of the…

We study magnetic quantum Hall systems in a half-plane with Dirichlet boundary conditions along the edge. Much work has been done on the analysis of the currents associated with states whose energy is located between Landau levels. These…

We theoretically investigate electrical transport in a quantum Hall system hosting bulk and edge current carrying states. Spatially varying magnetic and electric confinement creates pairs of current carrying lines that drift in the same or…

The equilibration between quantum Hall edge modes is known to depend on the disorder potential and the steepness of the edge. Modern samples with higher mobilities and setups with lower electron temperatures call for a further exploration…

We study numerically the edge magnetoconductance of a quantum spin Hall insulator in the presence of quenched nonmagnetic disorder. For a finite magnetic field B and disorder strength W on the order of the bulk gap E_g, the conductance…

We study the charge transport of the noninteracting electron gas in a two-dimensional quantum Hall system with Anderson-type impurities at zero temperature. We prove that there exist localized states of the bulk order in the…

We prove that the magnetization is equal to the edge current in the thermodynamic limit for a large class of models of lattice fermions with finite-range interactions satisfying local indistinguishability of the Gibbs state, a condition…

The nature of edge state transport in quantum Hall systems has been studied intensely ever since Halperin [1] noted its importance for the quantization of the Hall conductance. Since then, there have been many developments in the study of…

The quantum dynamics of an electron in a uniform magnetic field is studied for geometries corresponding to integrable cases. We obtain the uniform asymptotic approximation of the WKB energies and wavefunctions for the semi-infinite plane…

We investigate the chiral edge states in the two-dimensional ferromagntic kagom\'{e} lattice with spin anisotropies included. The system is periodic in the $x$ direction but has two edges in the $y$ direction. The Harper equation for…

Employing the Bloch eigenmode matching approach, we numerically study the evolution of individual quantum Hall edge states with respect to disorder. As shown by the two-parameter renormalization group flow of the Hall and Thouless…

The Quantum Spin Hall insulator is characterized by the presence of gapless helical edge states where the spin of the charge carriers is locked to their direction of motion. In order to probe the properties of the edge modes, we propose a…

We present a mean field theory of composite fermion edge channel transport in the fractional and integer quantum Hall regimes. An expression relating the electro-chemical potentials of composite fermions at the edges of a sample to those of…

Low-energy transport in quantum Hall states is carried through edge modes, and is dictated by bulk topological invariants and possibly microscopic Boltzmann kinetics at the edge. Here we show how the presence or breaking of symmetries of…
