In the context of the Integer Quantum Hall plateau transitions, we formulate a specific map from random landscape potentials onto 2D discrete random surfaces. Critical points of the potential, namely maxima, minima and saddle points uniquely define a discrete surface $S$ and its dual $S^*$ made of quadrangular and $n-$gonal faces, respectively, thereby linking the geometry of the potential with the geometry of discrete surfaces. The map is parameter-dependent on the Fermi level. Edge states of Fermi lakes moving along equipotential contours between neighbour saddle points form a network of scatterings, which define the geometric basis, in the fermionic model, for the plateau transitions. The replacement probability characterizing the network model with geometric disorder recently proposed by Gruzberg, Klumper, Nuding and Sedrakyan, is physically interpreted within the current framework as a parameter connected with the Fermi level.
Recent high-precision results for the critical exponent of the localization length at the integer quantum Hall (IQH) transition differ considerably between experimental ($ u_text{exp} approx 2.38$) and numerical ($ u_text{CC} approx 2.6$) values obta
This paper investigates quantum diffusion of matter waves in two-dimensional random potentials, focussing on expanding Bose-Einstein condensates in spatially correlated optical speckle potentials. Special care is taken to describe the effect of depha
Effects of backward scattering between fractional quantum Hall (FQH) edge modes are studied. Based on the edge-state picture for hierarchical FQH liquids, we discuss the possibility of the transitions between different plateaux of the tunneling condu
We show how to model the transition between distinct quantum Hall plateaus in terms of D-branes in string theory. A low energy theory of 2+1 dimensional fermions is obtained by considering the D3-D7 system, and the plateau transition corresponds to m
We study a c=-2 conformal field theory coupled to two-dimensional quantum gravity by means of dynamical triangulations. We define the geodesic distance r on the triangulated surface with N triangles, and show that dim[r^{d_H}]= dim[N], where the frac
