Application of Braid Groups in 2D Hall System Physics : Composite Fermion Structure.
In the present treatise progress in topological approach to Hall system physics is reported, including recent achievements in graphene. The homotopy methods of braid groups turn out to be of particular convenience in order to grasp peculiarity of 2D charged systems upon magnetic field resulting in L...
