The dynamical transport properties near the integer quantum Hall transition are investigated at zero temperature by means of the Dirac fermion approach. These properties have been studied experimentally at low frequency omega and low temperature near the nu=1 filling factor Hall transition, with the observation of an anusual broadening and an overall increase of the longitudinal conductivity Re sigma_{xx} as a function of omega. We find in our approach that, unlike for normal metals, the longitudinal conductivity increases as the frequency increases, whilst the width Delta B (or Delta nu) of the conductivity peak near the Hall transition increases. These findings are in reasonable quantitative agreement with recent experiments by Engel et al. as well as with recent numerical work by Avishai and Luck.

Recent work has extended topological band theory to open, non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, yet little is understood about how non-Hermiticity alters the topological quantization of associated observables. We address this problem by studying the quantum an
omalous Hall effect (QAHE) generated in the Dirac surface states of a 3D time-reversal-invariant topological insulator (TI) that is proximity-coupled to a metallic ferromagnet. By constructing a contact self-energy for the ferromagnet, we show that in addition to generating a mass gap in the surface spectrum, the ferromagnet can introduce a non-Hermitian broadening term, which can obscure the mass gap in the spectral function. We calculate the Hall conductivity for the effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian describing the heterostructure and show that it is no longer quantized despite being classified as a Chern insulator based on non-Hermitian topological band theory. Our results indicate that the QAHE will be challenging to experimentally observe in ferromagnet-TI heterostructures due to the finite lifetime of quasi-particles at the interface.
The status of the ac quantum Hall effect is reviewed with emphasis on the theoretical development in recent years. In particular, the numerical approaches for the calculation of the frequency dependent Hall and longitudinal conductivities of non-inte
racting electrons are considered in detail. Results for the frequency scaling at the critical point and for the frequency dependent deviation of the Hall conductivity from the quantised plateau value are presented.
We measure the longitudinal conductivity $sigma_{xx}$ at frequencies $1.246 {rm GHz} le f le 10.05$ GHz over a range of temperatures $235 {rm mK} le T le 4.2$ K with particular emphasis on the Quantum Hall plateaus. We find that $Re(sigma_{xx})$ scal
es linearly with frequency for a range of magnetic field around the center of the plateaus, i.e. where $sigma_{xx}(omega) gg sigma_{xx}^{DC}$. The width of this scaling region decreases with higher temperature and vanishes by 1.2 K altogether. Comparison between localization length determined from $sigma_{xx}(omega)$ and DC measurements on the same wafer show good agreement.
The high-frequency conductivity of Si delta-doped GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures is studied in the integer quantum Hall effect (QHE) regime, using acoustic methods. Both the real and the imaginary parts of the complex conductivity are determined from t
he experimentally observed magnetic field and temperature dependences of the velocity and the attenuation of a surface acoustic wave. It is demonstrated that in the structures studied the mechanism of low-temperature conductance near the QHE plateau centers is hopping. It is also shown that at magnetic fields corresponding to filling factors 2 and 4, the doped Si delta- layer efficiently shunts the conductance in the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) channel. A method to separate the two contributions to the real part of the conductivity is developed, and the localization length in the 2DEG channel is estimated.
We theoretically study the finite-size effects in the dynamical response of a quantum anomalous Hall insulator in the disk geometry. Semi-analytic and numerical results are obtained for the wavefunctions and energies of the disk within a continuum Di
rac Hamiltonian description subject to a topological infinite mass boundary condition. Using the Kubo formula, we obtain the frequency-dependent longitudinal and Hall conductivities and find that optical transitions between edge states contribute dominantly to the real part of the dynamic Hall conductivity for frequency values both within and beyond the bulk band gap. We also find that the topological infinite mass boundary condition changes the low-frequency Hall conductivity to $ e^2/h $ in a finite-size system from the well-known value $ e^2/2h $ in an extended system. The magneto-optical Faraday rotation is then studied as a function of frequency for the setup of a quantum anomalous Hall insulator mounted on a dielectric substrate, showing both finite-size effects of the disk and Fabry-Perot resonances due to the substrate. Our work demonstrates the important role played by the boundary condition in the topological properties of finite-size systems through its effects on the electronic wavefunctions.
