The $\nu = 1$ quantum Hall ground state in materials like GaAs is well known to be ferromagnetic in nature. The exchange part of the Coulomb interaction provides the necessary attractive force to align the electron spins spontaneously. The…
The Hopf term in the $2 + 1$ dimensional O(3) nonlinear sigma model, which is known to be responsible for fractional spin and statistics, is re-examined from the viewpoint of quantization ambiguity. It is confirmed that the Hopf term can be…
We couple the Hopf term to the relativistic $CP^1$ model and carry out the Hamiltonian analysis at the classical level. The symplectic structure of the model given by the set of Dirac Brackets among the phase space variables is found to be…
Recently it has been shown by Cho and Kimm that the gauged $CP^1$ model, obtained by gauging the global SU(2) group of $CP^1$ model and adding a corresponding Chern-Simons term, has got its own soliton. These solitons are somewhat distinct…
We derive an effective action for Dirac fermions coupled to O(3) non-linear sigma-model (NLSM) through the Yukawa-type interaction. The nonperturbative (global) quantum anomaly of this model results in a Hopf term for the effective NLSM. We…
We show that a Hopf term exists in the effective action of long-wavelength skyrmions in quantum Hall systems for both odd integer and fractional filling factors $\nu = 1/(2s +1)$, where $s$ is an integer. We evaluate the prefactor of the…
We use the Hamiltonian theory developed by Shankar and Murthy to study a quantum Hall system in a tilted magnetic field. With a finite width of the system in the $z$ direction, the parallel component of the magnetic field introduces…
We report on a microscopic theory of the Skyrmion states which occur in the quantum Hall regime. The theory is based on the identification of Skyrmion states in this system with zero-energy eigenstates of a hard-core model Hamiltonian. We…
Topological properties of a certain class of spinless three-band Hamiltonians are shown to be summed up by the Skyrmion number in momentum space, analogous to the case of two-band Hamiltonian. Topological tight-binding Hamiltonian on a…
Recently it was shown by Cho and Kimm that the gauged $CP^1$ model, obtained by gauging the global $SU(2)$ group and adding a corresponding Chern-Simons term, has got its own soliton. These solitons are somewhat distinct from those of pure…
The nonlinear $\sigma$-model in (2+1) dimensions admits topological configurations called skyrmions. The topological charge of skyrmions turn out to be the fermionic number and the fermionic current is dictated by the skyrmion field…
A new framework for quantum Hall skyrmions in O(4) nonlinear sigma model is studied here. The size and energy of the skyrmions are determined incorporating the quartic stability term in the Lagrangian. Moreover, the introduction of a…
We report the application of the nonlinear $\sigma$ model to study the multi-skyrmion problem in the quantum Hall ferromagnet system. We show that the ground state of the system can be described by a ferromagnet triangular Skyrme lattice…
A careful study of the supersymmetric version of Pruisken's nonlinear sigma model for the integer quantum Hall effect is presented. The lattice regularized model is cast in Hamiltonian form by taking the anisotropic limit and interpreting…
The Hamiltonian Theory of the fractional quantum Hall effect is an operator description that subsumes many properties of Composite Fermions, applies to gapped and gapless cases, and has been found to provide results in quantitative accord…
We re-examine three issues, the Hopf term, fractional spin and the soliton operators, in the 2+1 dimensional O(3) nonlinear sigma model based on the adjoint orbit parameterization (AOP) introduced earlier. It is shown that the Hopf Term is…
We study the integer quantum Hall plateau transition using composite fermion mean-field theory. We show that the topological $\theta = \pi$ term in the associated nonlinear sigma model [P. Kumar et al., Phys. Rev. B 100, 235124 (2019)] is…
Following our earlier work we argue in detail for the equivalence of the nonlinear $\sigma$ model with Hopf term at~$\theta=\pi/2s$ ~and an interacting spin-s theory. We give an ansatz for spin-s operators in the $\sigma$ model and show the…
We present a quantum field theoretical analysis of a $\nu = 1$ quantum Hall system when the effective Land\'e $g$ factor is small. We clearly demonstrate that the ground state of the system is ferromagnetic. We note that it is the short…
We consider a two-component quantum Hall system within a Landau-Ginzburg theory with two Chern-Simons gauge fields. From this theory we derive a sigma model covariantly coupled to one Chern-Simons field and find mean field solutions that…
