Electron fractionalization for two-dimensional Dirac fermions
Claudio Chamon, Chang-Yu Hou, Roman Jackiw +3
Fermion-number fractionalization without breaking of time-reversal symmetry was recently demonstrated for a field theory in -dimensional space and time that describes the co…
Challenges to Path Integral Formulations of Quantum Theories
R. Jackiw
The functional integral has many triumphs in elucidating quantum theory. But incorporating charge fractionalization into that formalism remains a challenge.
Lorentz Violation in a Diffeomorphism-Invariant Theory
R. Jackiw
In a diffeomorphism invariant theory, symmetry breaking may be a mask for coordinate choice.
Irrational vs. rational charge and statistics in two-dimensional quantum systems
Claudio Chamon, Chang-Yu Hou, Roman Jackiw +3
We show that quasiparticle excitations with irrational charge and irrational exchange statistics exist in tight-biding systems described, in the continuum approximation, by the Dir…
