Condensation of Nonabelian Moore–Read Quasiholes in Correlated Composite Fermion Liquids
نویسندگان
چکیده
Twoand three-body correlation functions (number of pairs or triplets vs. relative angular momentum) of electrons or Laughlin quasielectrons (i.e., composite fermions in their first excited Landau level) are studied numerically in several fractional quantum Hall liquids. It is shown directly that the νe = 4/11 liquid (corresponding to a ν = 1/3 filling of composite fermions in their first excited Landau level) is a paired state of quasielectrons, hence interpreted as a condensate of “second-generation” quasiholes of Moore–Read ν = 1/2 state of composite fermions.

متن کاملFermi Liquid without Quasiparticles and Electron Spectral Functions of Two-Dimensional High-Tc Superconductors
Properties of strongly correlated two-dimensional (2D) electron systems in solids are studied on the assumption that these systems undergo a phase transition, called fermion condensation, whose characteristic feature is flattening of the electron spectrum ǫ(p). Unlike the previous models in the present study, the decay of single-particle states is properly taken into account. Remarkably, the va...
متن کاملQuantum groups and nonabelian braiding in quantum Hall systems
Wave functions describing quasiholes and electrons in nonabelian quantum Hall states are well known to correspond to conformal blocks of certain coset conformal field theories. In this paper we explicitly analyse the algebraic structure underlying the braiding properties of these conformal blocks. We treat the electrons and the quasihole excitations as localised particles carrying charges relat...
متن کاملExclusion statistics for fractional quantum Hall states on a sphere
We discuss exclusion statistics parameters for quasiholes and quasielectrons excited above the fractional quantum Hall states near ν = p/(2np + 1). We derive the diagonal statistics parameters from the (“unprojected”) composite fermion (CF) picture. We propose values for the off-diagonal (mutual) statistics parameters as a simple modification of those obtained from the unprojected CF picture, b...
متن کاملMonte Carlo evaluation of non-Abelian statistics.
We develop a general framework to (numerically) study adiabatic braiding of quasiholes in fractional quantum Hall systems. Specifically, we investigate the Moore-Read (MR) state at nu=1/2 filling factor, a known candidate for non-Abelian statistics, which appears to actually occur in nature. The non-Abelian statistics of MR quasiholes is demonstrated explicitly for the first time, confirming th...
