"Nonabelians in the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect"

12:00pm, RLM 8.136

Abstract: I will review the paper “Nonabelions in the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect” by G. Moore and N. Read. It proposed the identification of the wave functions of electrons in FQHE as conformal blocks of rational conformal field theories in 1+1 dimensions.
