A quantum Hall (QH) interface is different from an ordinary QH edge, as the latter has its location determined by the confining potential, while the former can be unpinned and behave like a free string. In this paper, we demonstrate this difference by studying three different interfaces formed by (i) the Laughlin state and the vacuum, (ii) the Pfaffian state and the vacuum, and (iii) the Pfaffian and the anti-Pfaffian states. We find that string-like interfaces propagating freely in the QH system lead to very different dynamical properties from edges. This qualitative difference gives rise to fascinating new physics and suggests a new direction in future research on QH physics. We also discuss briefly possible analogies between QH interfaces and concepts in string theory.

The black hole information paradox has been hotly debated for the last few decades, without full resolution. This makes it desirable to find analogs of this paradox in simple and experimentally accessible systems, whose resolutions may shed light on
this long-standing and fundamental problem. Here we identify and resolve an apparent information paradox in a quantum Hall interface between the Halperin-331 and Pfaffian states. Information carried by pseudospin degree of freedom of the Abelian 331 quasiparticles gets scrambled when they cross the interface to enter non-Abelian Pfaffian state, and becomes inaccessible to local measurements; in this sense the Pfaffian region is an analog of black hole interior while the interface plays a role similar to its horizon. We demonstrate that the lost information gets recovered once the black hole evaporates and the quasiparticles return to the 331 region, albeit in a highly entangled form. Such recovery is quantified by the Page curve of the entropy carried by these quasiparticles, which are analogs of Hawking radiation.
We report measurements of the interaction-induced quantum Hall effect in a spin-polarized AlAs two-dimensional electron system where the electrons occupy two in-plane conduction band valleys. Via the application of in-plane strain, we tune the energi
es of these valleys and measure the energy gap of the quantum Hall state at filling factor $ u$ = 1. The gap has a finite value even at zero strain and, with strain, rises much faster than expected from a single-particle picture, suggesting that the lowest energy charged excitations at $ u=1$ are valley Skyrmions.
We propose an exact model of anyon ground states including higher Landau levels, and use it to obtain fractionally quantized Hall states at filling fractions $ u=p/(p(m-1)+1)$ with $m$ odd, from integer Hall states at $ u=p$ through adiabatic localiz
ation of magnetic flux. For appropriately chosen two-body potential interactions, the energy gap remains intact during the process. The construction hence establishes the existence of incompressible states at these fillings.
We discuss quantum Hall effect in the presence of arbitrary pair interactions between electrons. It is shown that irrespective of the interaction strength the Hall conductivity is given by the filling fraction of Landau levels averaged over the groun
d state of the system. This conclusion remains valid for both integer and fractional quantum Hall effect.
We investigate the entanglement spectra arising from sharp real-space partitions of the system for quantum Hall states. These partitions differ from the previously utilized orbital and particle partitions and reveal complementary aspects of the physi
cs of these topologically ordered systems. We show, by constructing one to one maps to the particle partition entanglement spectra, that the counting of the real-space entanglement spectra levels for different particle number sectors versus their angular momentum along the spatial partition boundary is equal to the counting of states for the system with a number of (unpinned) bulk quasiholes excitations corresponding to the same particle and flux numbers. This proves that, for an ideal model state described by a conformal field theory, the real-space entanglement spectra level counting is bounded by the counting of the conformal field theory edge modes. This bound is known to be saturated in the thermodynamic limit (and at finite sizes for certain states). Numerically analyzing several ideal model states, we find that the real-space entanglement spectra indeed display the edge modes dispersion relations expected from their corresponding conformal field theories. We also numerically find that the real-space entanglement spectra of Coulomb interaction ground states exhibit a series of branches, which we relate to the model state and (above an entanglement gap) to its quasiparticle-quasihole excitations. We also numerically compute the entanglement entropy for the nu=1 integer quantum Hall state with real-space partitions and compare against the analytic prediction. We find that the entanglement entropy indeed scales linearly with the boundary length for large enough systems, but that the attainable system sizes are still too small to provide a reliable extraction of the sub-leading topological entanglement entropy term.
