It is an important open problem to understand the landscape of non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall phases which can be obtained starting from physically motivated theories of Abelian composite particles. We show that progress on this problem can be made using recently proposed non-Abelian bosonization dualities in 2+1 dimensions, which morally relate $U(N)_k$ and $SU(k)_{-N}$ Chern-Simons-matter theories. The advantage of these dualities is that regions of the phase diagram which may be obscure on one side of the duality can be accessed by condensing local operators on the other side. Starting from parent Abelian states, we use this approach to construct Landau-Ginzburg theories of non-Abelian states through a pairing mechanism. In particular, we obtain the bosonic Read-Rezayi sequence at fillings $ u=k/(kM+2)$ by starting from $k$ layers of bosons at $ u=1/2$ with $M$ Abelian fluxes attached. The Read-Rezayi states arise when $k$-clusters of the dual non-Abelian bosons condense. We extend this construction by showing that $N_f$-component generalizations of the Halperin $(2,2,1)$ bosonic states have dual descriptions in terms of $SU(N_f+1)_1$ Chern-Simons-matter theories, revealing an emergent global symmetry in the process. Clustering $k$ layers of these theories yields a non-Abelian $SU(N_f)$-singlet state at filling $ u = kN_f / (N_f + 1 + kMN_f)$.

The recent proposal of non-Abelian boson-fermion dualities in 2+1 dimensions, which morally relate $U(k)_N$ to $SU(N)_{-k}$ Chern-Simons-matter theories, presents a new platform for exploring the landscape of non-Abelian quantum Hall states accessibl
e from theories of Abelian composite particles. Here we focus on dualities relating theories of Abelian quantum Hall states of bosons or fermions to theories of non-Abelian composite fermions partially filling Landau levels. We show that these dualities predict special filling fractions where both Abelian and non-Abelian composite fermion theories appear capable of hosting distinct topologically ordered ground states, one Abelian and the other a non-Abelian, $U(k)_2$ Blok-Wen state. Rather than being in conflict with the duality, we argue that these results indicate unexpected dynamics in which the infrared and lowest Landau level limits fail to commute across the duality. In such a scenario, the non-Abelian topological order can be destabilized in favor of the Abelian ground state, suggesting the presence of a phase transition between the Abelian and non-Abelian states that is likely to be first order. We also generalize these constructions to other non-Abelian fermion-fermion dualities, in the process obtaining new derivations of a variety of paired composite fermion phases using duality, including the anti-Pfaffian state. Finally, we describe how, in multilayer constructions, excitonic pairing of the composite fermions across $N$ layers can also generate the family of Blok-Wen states with $U(k)_2$ topological order.
Kondo lattice models have established themselves as an ideal platform for studying the interplay between topology and strong correlations such as in topological Kondo insulators or Weyl-Kondo semimetals. The nature of these systems requires the use o
f non-perturbative techniques which are few in number, especially in high dimensions. Motivated by this we study a model of Dirac fermions in $3+1$ dimensions coupled to an arbitrary array of spins via a generalization of functional non-Abelian bosonization. We show that there exists an exact transformation of the fermions which allows us to write the system as decoupled free fermions and interacting spins. This decoupling transformation consists of a local chiral, Weyl and Lorentz transformation parameterized by solutions to a set of nonlinear differential equations which order by order takes the form of Maxwells equations with the spins acting as sources. Owing to its chiral and Weyl components this transformation is anomalous and generates a contribution to the action. From this we obtain the effective action for the spins and expressions for the anomalous transport in the system. In the former we find that the coupling to the fermions generates kinetic terms for the spins, a long ranged interaction and a Wess-Zumino like term. In the latter we find generalizations of the chiral magnetic and quantum Hall effects. These results represent a rare case of an exact non-perturbative theory of a strongly correlated system in four space-time dimensions. The methods discussed here can be generalized to other situations and may provide a reliable route to understanding non-Fermi liquid behavior.
We investigate the nature of the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state at filling factor $ u=13/5$, and its particle-hole conjugate state at $12/5$, with the Coulomb interaction, and address the issue of possible competing states. Based on a large-scal
e density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculation in spherical geometry, we present evidence that the physics of the Coulomb ground state (GS) at $ u=13/5$ and $12/5$ is captured by the $k=3$ parafermion Read-Rezayi RR state, $text{RR}_3$. We first establish that the state at $ u=13/5$ is an incompressible FQH state, with a GS protected by a finite excitation gap, with the shift in accordance with the RR state. Then, by performing a finite-size scaling analysis of the GS energies for $ u=12/5$ with different shifts, we find that the $text{RR}_3$ state has the lowest energy among different competing states in the thermodynamic limit. We find the fingerprint of $text{RR}_3$ topological order in the FQH $13/5$ and $12/5$ states, based on their entanglement spectrum and topological entanglement entropy, both of which strongly support their identification with the $text{RR}_3$ state. Furthermore, by considering the shift-free infinite-cylinder geometry, we expose two topologically-distinct GS sectors, one identity sector and a second one matching the non-Abelian sector of the Fibonacci anyonic quasiparticle, which serves as additional evidence for the $text{RR}_3$ state at $13/5$ and $12/5$.
We deduce a new set of symmetries and relations between the coefficients of the expansion of Abelian and Non-Abelian Fractional Quantum Hall (FQH) states in free (bosonic or fermionic) many-body states. Our rules allow to build an approximation of a
FQH model state with an overlap increasing with growing system size (that may sometimes reach unity!) while using a fraction of the original Hilbert space. We prove these symmetries by deriving a previously unknown recursion formula for all the coefficients of the Slater expansion of the Laughlin, Read Rezayi and many other states (all Jacks multiplied by Vandermonde determinants), which completely removes the current need for diagonalization procedures.
We consider a non-Abelian candidate state at filling factor $ u=3/7$ state belonging to the parton family. We find that, in the second Landau level of GaAs (i.e. at filling factor $ u=2+3/7$), this state is energetically superior to the standard Jain
composite-fermion state and also provides a very good representation of the ground state found in exact diagonalization studies of finite systems. This leads us to predict that emph{if} a fractional quantum Hall effect is observed at $ u=3/7$ in the second Landau level, it is likely to be described by this new non-Abelian state. We enumerate experimentally measurable properties that can verify the topological structure of this state.
