Cyclotron spin-flip excitation in a nu=2 quantum Hall system, being separated from the ground state by a slightly smaller gap than the cyclotron energy and from upper magnetoplasma excitation by the Coulomb gap [S. Dickmann and I.V. Kukushkin, Phys. Rev. B 71, 241310(R) (2005) ; L.V. Kulik, I.V. Kukushkin, S. Dickmann, V.E. Kirpichev, A.B. Vankov, A.L. Parakhonsky, J.H. Smet, K. von Klitzing, and W. Wegscheider, Phys. Rev. B 72, 073304 (2005)] cannot relax in a purely electronic way except only with the emission of a shortwave acoustic phonon (k~3*10^7/cm). As a result, relaxation in a modern wide-thickness quantum well occurs very slowly. We calculate the characteristic relaxation time to be ~1s. Extremely slow relaxation should allow the production of a considerable density of zero-momenta cyclotron spin-flip excitations in a very small phase volume, thus forming a highly coherent ensemble - the Bose-Einstein condensate. The condensate state can be controlled by short optical pulses (<1 mcs), switching it on and off.

Electron spin relaxation in a spin-polarized quantum Hall state is studied. Long spin relaxation times that are at least an order of magnitude longer than those measured in previous experiments were observed and explained within the spin-exciton rela
xation formalism. Absence of any dependence of the spin relaxation time on the electron temperature and on the spin-exciton density, and specific dependence on the magnetic field indicate the definite relaxation mechanism -- spin-exciton annihilation mediated by spin-orbit coupling and smooth random potential.
Spin-flip excitations in a quantum Hall electron system at fixed filling factor nu=2 are modelled and studied under conditions of a strong Coulomb interaction when the `Landau level mixing is a dominant factor determining the excitation energy. The `
one-exciton approach used for the purely electronic excitations in question allows us to describe the Stoner transition from the unpolarized/paramgnet state to the polarized/ferromagnet one. The theoretical results are compared with the available experimental data.
The Kane-Mele (KM) model is proposed to describe the quantum spin Hall effect of electrons on the two-dimensional honeycomb lattice. Here, we will show that, in a certain parameter region, the London equation is obtained from the effective field theo
ry of the layered KM model with an electronic correlation.
Two-dimensional semiconductor quantum dots are studied in the the filling-factor range 2<v<3. We find both theoretical and experimental evidence of a collective many-body phenomenon, where a fraction of the trapped electrons form an incompressible sp
in-droplet on the highest occupied Landau level. The phenomenon occurs only when the number of electrons in the quantum dot is larger than ~30. We find the onset of the spin-droplet regime at v=5/2. This proposes a finite-geometry alternative to the Moore-Read-type Pfaffian state of the bulk two-dimensional electron gas. Hence, the spin-droplet formation may be related to the observed fragility of the v=5/2 quantum Hall state in narrow quantum point contacts.
Knot theory provides a powerful tool for the understanding of topological matters in biology, chemistry, and physics. Here knot theory is introduced to describe topological phases in the quantum spin system. Exactly solvable models with long-range in
teractions are investigated, and Majorana modes of the quantum spin system are mapped into different knots and links. The topological properties of ground states of the spin system are visualized and characterized using crossing and linking numbers, which capture the geometric topologies of knots and links. The interactivity of energy bands is highlighted. In gapped phases, eigenstate curves are tangled and braided around each other forming links. In gapless phases, the tangled eigenstate curves may form knots. Our findings provide an alternative understanding of the phases in the quantum spin system, and provide insights into one-dimension topological phases of matter.
