The location of electrons governs phenomena ranging from chemical bonding and electric polarization to the topological classification of band insulators and the emergence of correlated states in quantum matter. While a prescription exists…
Localization problem of electronic states in a two-dimensional quantum spin Hall system (QSH - a symplectic model with a non-trivial topological structure) is studied by the transfer matrix method. The phase diagram in the plane of energy…
We elaborate on a geometric characterization of the electromagnetic properties of matter. A fundamental complex quantity, z_{L}, is introduced to study the localization properties of extended quantum systems. z_L, which allows us to…
A field-theoretic formulation of a planar Hall-electron system with edges is presented and some fundamental aspects of the integer quantum Hall effect are studied with emphasis on clarifying general symmetry-based consequences of…
The localization behavior of noninteracting two-dimensional electrons in a random potential and strong magnetic field is of fundamental interest for the physics of the quantum Hall effect. In order to understand the emergence of power-law…
Delocalization problem for a two-dimensional non-interacting electron system is studied under a random magnetic field. With the presence of a random magnetic field, the Hall conductance carried by each eigenstate can become nonzero and…
We show that the localization transition in the integer quantum Hall effect as described by the Chalker-Coddington network model is quantum critical. We first map the anisotropic network model to the problem of diagonalizing a…
The phenomenon of quantum localization in classically chaotic eigenstates is one of the main issues in quantum chaos (or wave chaos), and thus plays an important role in general quantum mechanics or even in general wave mechanics. In this…
Spatial correlations of occupation probabilities, if their decay is not too fast, can change the critical exponents for classical percolation. From numerical studies of electron dynamics in the lowest Landau level (LLL) we demonstrate the…
The scaling theory of the transitions between plateaus of the Hall conductivity in the integer Quantum Hall effect is reviewed. In the model of two-dimensional noninteracting electrons in strong magnetic fields the transitions are…
We explore quantum localization phenomena in a system of two coupled tight-binding chains with incommensurate periods. Employing the inverse participation ratio as a measure of localization, we investigate the effects of geometric…
We investigate integer and fractional quantum Hall states in quantum point contacts (QPCs) of different geometries, defined in AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures employing different doping and screening techniques. We find that, even in the…
We theoretically examine entanglement in fractional quantum hall states, explicitly taking into account and emphasizing the quasi-two-dimensional nature of experimental quantum Hall systems. In particular, we study the entanglement entropy…
To fully appreciate the impacts that the discovery of the quantum Hall effect had on electrical metrology, it may benefit the reader to cultivate a general understanding of the phenomenon. Two-dimensional electron systems can exhibit many…
We present a detailed study of the quantum site percolation problem on simple cubic lattices, thereby focussing on the statistics of the local density of states and the spatial structure of the single particle wavefunctions. Using the…
We perform both analytical and numerical studies of the one-dimensional tight-binding Hamiltonian with stochastic uncorrelated on-site energies and non-fluctuating long-range hopping integrals . It was argued recently [A. Rodriguez at al.,…
Motivated by the recent numerical studies on the Chalker-Coddington network model that found a larger-than-expected critical exponent of the localization length characterizing the integer quantum Hall plateau transitions, we revisited the…
This review work addresses the recent advances in solving more comprehensive Hamiltonians. The generalized tight-binding model is developed to investigate the feature-rich quantization phenomena in emergent 2D materials. The mutli-orbital…
We study localization-delocalization transition in quantum Hall systems with a random field of nuclear spins acting on two-dimensional (2d) electron spins via hyperfine contact (Fermi) interaction. We use Chalker-Coddington network model,…
Quantum point contacts (QPCs) are an essential component in mesoscopic devices. Here, we study the transmission of quantum Hall edge modes through a gate-defined QPC in monolayer graphene. We observe resonant tunneling peaks and a nonlinear…
