On Picture (2+1)-TQFTs (2008)

Freedman, M., Nayak, C., Walker, K., Wang, Z.

The goal of the paper is an exposition of the simplest $(2+1)$-TQFTs in a sense following a pictorial approach. In the end, we fell short on details in the later sections where new results are stated...

Spin polarization of the $\nu=5/2$ quantum Hall state (2008)

Feiguin, A. E., Rezayi, E., Yang, Kun, Nayak, C., Sarma, S. Das

We report on results of numerical studies of the spin polarization of the half filled second Landau level, which corresponds to the fractional quantum Hall state at filling factor $\nu=5/2$. Our...

Density Matrix Renormalization Group Study of Incompressible Fractional Quantum Hall States (2007)

Feiguin, A. E., Rezayi, E., Nayak, C., Sarma, S. Das

We develop the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) technique for numerically studying incompressible fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states on the sphere. We calculate accurate estimates for...

Infrared Hall angle in the d-density-wave state: A comparison of theory and experiment (2004)

Tewari, S., Chakravarty, S., Fjaerestad, J. O., Nayak, C., Thompson, R. S.

Infrared Hall measurements in the pseudogap phase of the high-T-c cuprates are addressed within the framework of the ordered d-density-wave state. The zero-temperature Hall frequency omega(H) is...

Tewari, S., Chakravarty, S., Fjaerestad, J. O., Nayak, C., Thompson, R. S.

Infrared Hall measurements in the pseudogap phase of the high-T-c cuprates are addressed within the framework of the ordered d-density-wave state. The zero-temperature Hall frequency omega(H) is...

Hidden Order in the Cuprates (2000)

Chakravarty, S., Laughlin, R. B., Morr, D. K., Nayak, C.

We propose that the enigmatic pseudogap phase of cuprate superconductors is characterized by a hidden broken symmetry of d(x^2-y^2)-type. The transition to this state is rounded by disorder, but in...

Resonant Multi-Lead Point-Contact Tunneling (1997)

Nayak, C., Fisher, Matthew P. A., Ludwig, A. W. W.

We analyze a model of resonant point-contact tunneling between multiple Luttinger liquid leads. The model is a variant of the multi-channel Kondo model and can be related to the quantum Brownian...

Open Luttinger liquids (1997)

Neto, A. H. Castro, Chamon, C. De C., Nayak, C.

We study the problem of Luttinger liquids interacting with an active environment. We are particularly interested in how dissipation affects the response and correlation functions of non-isolated...

The Haldane-Rezayi Quantum Hall State and Conformal Field Theory (1997)

Gurarie, V., Flohr, M., Nayak, C.

We propose field theories for the bulk and edge of a quantum Hall state in the universality class of the Haldane-Rezayi wavefunction. The bulk theory is associated with the $c=-2$ conformal field...

Gauge Fields and Pairing in Double-Layer Composite Fermion Metals (1996)

Bonesteel, N. E., McDonald, I. A., Nayak, C.

A symmetrically doped double layer electron system with total filling fraction $\nu=1/m$ decouples into two even denominator ($\nu=1/2 m$) composite fermion `metals' when the layer spacing is large....
