We construct the c-function whose gradient determines the RG flow of the conductivities (sigma_xy and sigma_xx) for a quantum Hall system, subject to two assumptions. (1) We take the flow to be invariant with respect to the infinite…

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…

Based on numerical study of the Rashba model, we show that the spin Hall conductance remains finite in the presence of disorder up to a characteristic length scale, beyond which it vanishes exponentially with the system size. We further…

We show that a finite Hall effect in zero applied magnetic field occurs for partially filled bands in certain time-reversal violating states with zero net flux per unit-cell. These states are the Magneto-chiral states with parameters in the…

A charge fluctuator which is electrostatically coupled to a conducting channel may fully dephase quantum transport through the latter. Here, we address the case where a quantum dot (QD), playing the role of a charge fluctuator, is…

We study the Hall constant in a homogeneous two-dimensional fluid of correlated electrons immersed in a perpendicular magnetic field, with special focus on the regime of low carrier density. The model consists of a one-band tight-binding…

We present a magnetic double-well Hamiltonian where the tunneling between the two wells vanishes, as recently announced.

We construct a periodically time-dependent Hamiltonian with a phase transition in the quantum Hall universality class. One spatial dimension can be eliminated by introducing a second incommensurate driving frequency, so that we can study…

We report results of numerical studies of the integer quantum Hall effect in a tight binding model on a two-dimensional square lattice with non-interacting electrons, in the presence of a random potential as well as a uniform magnetic field…

Motivated in part by the numerical simulations [ky,kosterlitz1,kosterlitz2] which reveal that the energy to create a defect in a gauge or phase glass scales as $L^{\theta}$ with $\theta<0$ for 2D, thereby implying a vanishing stiffness, we…

We study experimentally the reproducible conductance fluctuations between the quantum Hall plateaus in the conductance of two-terminal submicron silicon MOSFETs. For the dramatic fluctuations at the insulator-to-first-plateau transition we…

We show how macroscopic manifestations of $P$ (and $T$) symmetry breaking can arise in a simple system subject to Aharonov-Bohm interactions. Specifically, we study the conductivity of a gas of charged particles moving through a dilute…

For more than a decade it was widely accepted that two-dimensional electrons are insulating at zero temperature and at zero magnetic-field. Experimentally it was demonstrated that, when placed in a strong perpendicular magnetic field, the…

We study the phase structure and Hall conductance quantization in weakly coupled multi-layer electron systems in the integer quantum Hall regime. We derive an effective field theory and perform a two-loop renormalization group calculation.…

Three-dimensional topological insulators of finite thickness can show the quantum Hall effect (QHE) at the filling factor $\nu=0$ under an external magnetic field if there is a finite potential difference between the top and bottom…

A new manifestation of interlayer coherence in strongly polarized double layer quantum Hall systems with total filling factor $\nu=1$ in the presence of a small or zero tunneling is theoretically predicted. It is shown that moving (for…

Transport through edge-channels is responsible for conduction in quantum Hall (QH) phases. Topology dictates quantization of both charge and thermal transport coefficients. These turn out to approach robust quantized values when incoherent…

In this note we generalize the construction of microlocal projector to the sublevel set of autonomous function with complete Hamiltonian flow under some mild conditions. Furthermore, we mention that the condition of being complete is…

Thermodynamic and transport properties of a two dimensional circular quantum dot are studied theoretically at zero magnetic field. In the limit of a large confining potential, where the dot spectrum exhibits a shell structure, it is argued…

We study the linear Hall response of 2D ballistic system on inhomogeneous magnetic field. We establish that in classical limit the Hall conductivity response on local magnetic field is quantized in units of $\alpha_H \equiv \frac{e^3}{2…
