Two point-contact interferometer for quantum Hall systems

C. de C. Chamon, D. E. Freed, S. A. Kivelson +2

We propose a device, consisting of a Hall bar with two weak barriers, that can be used to study quantum interference effects in a strongly correlated system. We show how the device…

Disordered Critical Wave functions in Random Bond Models in Two Dimensions -- Random Lattice Fermions at without Doubling

Yasuhiro Hatsugai, Xiao-Gang Wen, Mahito Kohmoto

Random bond Hamiltonians of the flux state on the square lattice are investigated. It has a special symmetry and all states are paired except the ones with zero energy. Because…

Gaussian field theories, random Cantor sets and multifractality

Claudio de C. Chamon, Christopher Mudry, Xiao-Gang Wen

The computation of multifractal scaling properties associated with a critical field theory involves non-local operators and remains an open problem using conventional techniques of…

Two-dimensional conformal field theory for disordered systems at criticality

Christopher Mudry, Claudio Chamon, Xiao-Gang Wen

Using a Kac-Moody current algebra with graded symmetry, we describe a class of (possibly disordered) critical points in two spatial dimensions. The critical p…

Theory of Underdoped Cuprates

Xiao-Gang Wen, Patrick A. Lee

We develop a slave-boson theory for the t-J model at finite doping which respects an SU(2) symmetry -- a symmetry previously known to be important at half filling. The mean field p…

Topological orders and Edge excitations in FQH states

Xiao-Gang Wen

Fractional quantum Hall (FQH) liquids contain extremely rich internal structures which represent a whole new kind of ordering. We discuss characterization and classification of the…

Quantum Boltzmann equation of composite fermions interacting with a gauge field

Yong Baek Kim, Patrick A. Lee, Xiao-Gang Wen

We derive the quantum Boltzmann equation (QBE) of composite fermions at/near the state using the non-equilibrium Green's function technique. The lowest order perturbative…

Conductance of an Artificial Atom in Strong Magnetic Fields

O. Klein, C. de C. Chamon, D. Tang +4

The conductance resulting from resonant tunneling through a droplet of electrons is used to measure its chemical potential . Abrupt shifts of occur at sharpl…

Gauge-invariant response functions of fermions coupled to a gauge field

Yong Baek Kim, Akira Furusaki, Xiao-Gang Wen +1

We study a model of fermions interacting with a gauge field and calculate gauge-invariant two-particle Green's functions or response functions. The leading singular contributions f…

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

Xiao-Gang Wen, Yong-Shi Wu, Yasuhiro Hatsugai

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,…

Chiral Operator Product Algebra Hidden in Certain Fractional Quantum Hall Wave Functions

Xiao-Gang Wen, Yong-Shi Wu

In this paper we study the conditions under which an N-electron wave function for a fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state can be viewed as N-point correlation function in a conformal…

Large N renormalization group study of the commensurate dirty boson problem

Yong Baek Kim, Xiao-Gang Wen

(Short Description) We use a large N renormalization group method to study a model of interacting boson system with a quenched random potential.
