Vortexability: A unifying criterion for ideal fractional Chern insulators

PJ Ledwith, A Vishwanath, DE Parker - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
Fractional Chern insulators realize the remarkable physics of the fractional quantum Hall
effect (FQHE) in crystalline systems with Chern bands. The lowest Landau level (LLL) is …

Geometric response and disclination-induced skin effects in non-Hermitian systems

XQ Sun, P Zhu, TL Hughes - Physical review letters, 2021 - APS
We study the geometric response of three-dimensional non-Hermitian crystalline systems
with nontrivial point-gap topology. For systems with fourfold rotation symmetry, we show that …

Spacetime symmetries of the quantum Hall effect

M Geracie, DT Son, C Wu, SF Wu - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
We study the symmetries of nonrelativistic systems with an emphasis on applications to the
fractional quantum Hall effect. A source for the energy current of a Galilean system is …

Bimetric theory of fractional quantum hall states

A Gromov, DT Son - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
We present a bimetric low-energy effective theory of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states
that describes the topological properties and a gapped collective excitation, known as the …

Odd viscosity in two-dimensional incompressible fluids

S Ganeshan, AG Abanov - Physical review fluids, 2017 - APS
In this work, we present observable consequences of a parity-violating odd-viscosity term in
incompressible 2+ 1D hydrodynamics. For boundary conditions depending on the velocity …

Framing anomaly in the effective theory of the fractional quantum hall effect

A Gromov, GY Cho, Y You, AG Abanov, E Fradkin - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
We consider the geometric part of the effective action for the fractional quantum Hall effect
(FQHE). It is shown that accounting for the framing anomaly of the quantum Chern-Simons …

Very-high-energy collective states of partons in fractional quantum hall liquids

AC Balram, Z Liu, A Gromov, Z Papić - Physical Review X, 2022 - APS
The low-energy physics of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states—a paradigm of strongly
correlated topological phases of matter—to a large extent is captured by weakly interacting …

On the coupling of Galilean-invariant field theories to curved spacetime

K Jensen - SciPost Physics, 2018 - scipost.org
We consider the problem of coupling Galilean-invariant quantum field theories to a fixed
spacetime. We propose that to do so, one couples to Newton-Cartan geometry and in …

Thermal Hall effect and geometry with torsion

A Gromov, AG Abanov - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
We formulate a geometric framework that allows us to study momentum and energy
transport in nonrelativistic systems. It amounts to a coupling of the nonrelativistic system to …
