Quantum Hall effects on the complex Grassmann manifolds Gr(2)(C-N) are formulated. We set up the Landau problem in Gr(2()C(N)) and solve it using group theoretical techniques and provide the energy spectrum and the eigenstates in terms of the SU(N) Wigner D functions for charged particles on Gr(2()C(N)) under the influence of Abelian and non-Abelian background magnetic monopoles or a combination of these. In particular, for the simplest case of Gr(2()C(4)), we explicitly write down the U(1) background gauge field as well as the single- and many-particle eigenstates by introducing the Plucker coordinates and show by calculating the two-point correlation function that the lowest Landau level at filling factor v=1 forms an incompressible fluid. Our results are in agreement with the previous results in the literature for the quantum Hall effect on CPN and generalize them to all Gr(2()C(N)) in a suitable manner. Finally, we heuristically identify a relation between the U(1) Hall effect on Gr(2()C(4)) and the Hall effect on the odd sphere S-5, which is yet to be investigated in detail, by appealing to the already-known analogous relations between the Hall effects on CP3 and CP7 and those on the spheres S-4 and S-8, respectively.

Quantum Hall effect on odd spheres
Coskun, U. H.; Kürkcüoğlu, Seçkin; Toga, G. C. (2017-03-22)
We solve the Landau problem for charged particles on odd dimensional spheres S2k-1 in the background of constant SO(2k - 1) gauge fields carrying the irreducible representation (I/2,I/2, . . . , I/2). We determine the spectrum of the Hamiltonian, the degeneracy of the Landau levels and give the eigenstates in terms of the Wigner D-functions, and for odd values of I, the explicit local form of the wave functions in the lowest Landau level (LLL). The spectrum of the Dirac operator on S2k-1 in the same gauge f...
Quantum decoherence and quantum state diffusion formalism
Dumlu, Cesim Kadri; Turgut, Sadi; Department of Physics (2007)
Foundational problems of quantum theory, regarding the appearance of classicality and the measurement problem are stated and their link to studies of open quantum systems is discussed. This study's main aim is to analyze the main approaches that are employed in the context of open quantum systems. The general form of Markovian master equations are derived by a constructive approach. The Quantum State Diffusion (QSD) formalism is stressed upon as an alternative method to the master equations. Using the Calde...
Quantum Monte Carlo methods for fermionic systems : beyond the fixed-node approximation
Dugan, Nazım; Erkoç, Şakir; Department of Physics (2010)
Developments are made on the quantum Monte Carlo methods towards increasing the precision and the stability of the non fixed-node projector calculations of fermions. In the first part of the developments, the wavefunction correction scheme, which was developed to increase the precision of the di usion Monte Carlo (DMC) method, is applied to non fixed-node DMC to increase the precision of such fermion calculations which do not have nodal error. The benchmark calculations indicate a significant decrease of st...
Spontaneous Lorentz violation: the case of infrared QED
Balachandran, A. P.; Kürkcüoğlu, Seçkin; de Queiroz, A. R.; VAİDYA, SACHİN (2015-02-24)
It is by now clear that the infrared sector of quantum electrodynamics (QED) has an intriguingly complex structure. Based on earlier pioneering work on this subject, two of us recently proposed a simple modification of QED by constructing a generalization of the U(1) charge group of QED to the "Sky" group incorporating the well-known spontaneous Lorentz violation due to infrared photons, but still compatible in particular with locality (Balachandran and Vaidya, Eur Phys J Plus 128:118, 2013). It was shown t...
Nonlinear Optical Properties of Low Dimensional Quantum Systems
Unal, V. Ustoglu; Tomak, Mehmet; Aksahin, E.; Zorlu, O. (2022-01-01)
Low dimensional semiconductor structures such as quantum wells, wires and dots demonstrate interesting nonlinear optical properties. The low dimensionality modulates the electronic structure leading to distinct nonlinear optical properties as compared to their bulk counterparts. In this review, we concentrate more on quantum wells and dots althoughwealso consider someworks on quantum wires. The nonlinear optical parameters such as the second and the third order susceptibilities are specifically discussed.
