چکیده

We show that non-Abelian quantum Hall states can be identified by experimental measurements of the temperature dependence of either the electrochemical potential or the orbital magnetization. The predicted signals of non-Abelian statistics are within experimental resolution, and can be clearly distinguished from other contributions under realistic circumstances. The proposed measurement technique also has the potential to resolve spin-ordering transitions in low density electronic systems in the Wigner crystal and strongly interacting Luttinger liquid regimes.

Non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall states and chiral coset conformal field theories

We propose an effective Lagrangian for the low energy bulk theory of the Pfaffian states of the fractional quantum Hall effect in terms of non-Abelian Chern-Simons (CS) actions. Our approach exploits the connection between topological CS and chiral conformal field theories and can be applied to large class of non-Abelian FQH states. CONICET, Argentina CICPBA, Argentina

Projective Construction of Non-Abelian Quantum Hall Liquids

Using projective construction, a generalized parton construction, we construct many non-Abelian quantum Hall (QH) states, which include the Pfaffian state at filling fraction ν = 1/2. The projective construction allows us to calculate the bulk and the edge effective theory for the constructed QH state. We illustrate how to use the bulk effective theory to calculate the ground state degeneracy o...

Chiral Operator Product Algebra and Edge Excitations of a Fractional Quantum Hall Droplet*

In this paper we study the spectrum of low-energy edge excitations of a fractional quantum Hall (FQH) droplet. We show how to generate, by conformal field theory (CFT) techniques, the many-electron wave functions for the edge states. And we propose to classify the spectrum of the edge states by the same chiral operator product algebra (OPA) that appears in the CFT description of the ground stat...

Imaging Anyons with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy

Anyons are exotic quasiparticles with fractional charge that can emerge as fundamental excitations of strongly interacting topological quantum phases of matter. Unlike ordinary fermions and bosons, they may obey non-Abelian statistics—a property that would help realize fault-tolerant quantum computation. NonAbelian anyons have long been predicted to occur in the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) ph...
