Skyrmions and edge-spin excitations in quantum Hall droplets

Journal Article Oaknin, J H ; Martin-Moreno, L ; Tejedor, C - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

We present a microscopic analysis of spin textures in quantum Hall droplets for filling factors {nu}{approx_equal}1. We obtain analytical many-body wave functions of spin excitations which describe all of the necessary quantum numbers. An adequate linear combination of these eigenstates leads to wave functions in which the spatially dependent spinor can be factorized. This displays the topological structure of several spin textures, some of which are located at the bulk, and others at the edge. For the former, we obtain bulk charged skyrmions that can be expressed as a condensate of spin excitons interacting via a two-body repulsive interaction. Themore »« less

Edge excitations in the fractional-quantum-Hall liquids

Journal Article Lee, D ; Wen, X - Physical Review Letters; (USA)

We present an alternative derivation for the macroscopic theory of edge excitations of the fractional-quantum-Hall liquid. The predictions of the macroscopic theory are compared with numerical results for finite systems.

Chiral Luttinger liquid and the edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall states

Journal Article Wen, X G - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (USA)

The low-energy effective theory of the edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states is derived. The edge excitations are shown to form a new kind of state which is called the chiral Luttinger liquid ({chi}LL). The effective theory is exactly soluble. This enables us to easily calculate all the low-energy properties of the edge excitations. We calculate the electron propagator and the spectral function, which clearly demonstrate the non-Fermi-liquid behaviors of the {chi}LL. We also calculate the interference effects between excitations on different edges. We demonstrate that the properties of the edge excitations are closely related to themore »« less

Helical Liquid and the Edge of Quantum Spin Hall Systems

Journal Article Wu, C - Physical Review Letters

The edge states of the recently proposed quantum spin Hall systems constitute a new symmetry class of one-dimensional liquids dubbed the 'helical liquid,' where the spin orientation is determined by the direction of electron motion. We prove a no-go theorem which states that a helical liquid with an odd number of components cannot be constructed in a purely 1D lattice system. In a helical liquid with an odd number of components, a uniform gap in the ground state can appear when the time-reversal symmetry is spontaneously broken by interactions. On the other hand, a correlated two-particle backscattering term by anmore »« less
