Quasi Fermi distribution and resonant tunneling of quasiparticles with fractional charges.

We study the resonant tunneling of quasiparticles through an impurity between the edges of a Fractional Quantum Hall sample. We show that the one-particle momentum distribution of fractionally charged edge quasiparticles has a quasi-Fermi character. The density of states near the quasi-Fermi energy at zero temperature is singular due to the statistical interaction of quasiparticles. Another effect of this interaction is a new selection rule for the resonant tunneling of fractionally charged quasiparticles: the resonance is suppressed unless an integer number of electrons occupies the impurity. It allows a new explanation of the scaling behavior observed in the mesoscopic fluctuations of the conductivity in the FQHE.
