Summary: Observations of electron-hole asymmetry in transport through graphene devices at high magnetic field challenge prevalent models of the graphene quantum Hall effect. The presence of upstream modes and local doping in the vicinity of electrical contacts leads to a different topological breakdown for electrons and holes, explaining the observed asymmetry.

Summary: The edges of quantum Hall phases exhibit a variety of exotic modes, including neutralons, which are chargeless anyons with semion statistics. These neutral particles can be experimentally accessed, making their study and manipulation intriguing and challenging. This article focuses on the strongly interacting regime of neutralons, where a quarteting mechanism replaces conventional pairing and leads to neutralon superconductivity. The manifestations of this effect are discussed, along with the potential for observing interference of the accompanying charged anyons.

Summary: Experimental observation in the fractional quantum Hall regime shows that the current carried by hDWs is significantly smaller than predicted by the naive model. Theoretical analysis using Luttinger liquid theory reveals a redistribution of currents between quasiparticle charge, spin, and neutral modes, leading to the reduction of the hDW current. Including spin-non-conserving tunneling processes reconciles theory with experiment and confirms the emergence of spin modes necessary for the formation of fractional topological superconductivity.

Summary: This paper proposes a new formula for extracting the quantum Hall conductance from a gapped wave function. The formula applies to many-body systems that conserve particle number and exhibits all the formal properties of the Hall conductance. Furthermore, evidence from conformal field theory supports the relation between the formula and the Hall conductance. Numerical verification is also provided with an example of a noninteracting Chern band.

Summary: The authors challenge the conventional wisdom and demonstrate the generation and detection of charge neutral current in a centrosymmetric material with low spin-orbit interaction. By using bilayer graphene, they observe enhanced nonlocal transport in the quantum Hall antiferromagnetic state, where spontaneous symmetry breaking occurs due to electronic correlation.

Summary: This article investigates the interplay between pairing and topological orders in a spin polarized electron system on a Hofstadter lattice. It shows that with increasing attractive interaction, the system undergoes phase transitions from a quantum Hall phase to a skyrmion lattice phase and then to a vortex phase. The experimental feasibility and observable consequences of skyrmions and Majorana modes are indicated.

Summary: We report experimental observations of hysteresis in the integer quantum Hall regime of a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. The nonequilibrium processes arising from direct Coulomb interactions and the dissipative nature of the Hall bar, together with scattering-influenced contacts, are shown to be responsible for the observed anomalous effects. Hysteretic behavior is found for various filling factors, including both integer and fractional states.

Summary: Fractional quantum Hall quasiparticles are characterized by electric charge and scaling dimension. The scaling dimension determines the anyonic statistics for simple states, while for more complex states, it helps distinguish different theoretical descriptions. A scheme for extracting the scaling dimension from tunneling noise is proposed.

Summary: We propose a cooling scheme to prepare stationary entanglement of neutral atoms in the Rydberg blockade regime by the combination of periodically collective laser pumping and dissipation. This protocol aims to stabilize the system into the desired steady state independently of the initial state, without requiring coherent addressing of individual neutral atoms or fine control of Rydberg interaction intensity, thus improving the feasibility of experiments in related fields.

Summary: Topological nontrivial bands can be realized via Rydberg-dressed neutral atoms. By studying a two-dimensional hard-core boson model on a honeycomb array, it is found that a fractional Chern insulator phase with Chern number C = 1/2 can exist in the system, even in the presence of weak many-body interactions.

Summary: In this study, we investigate the control over valley isospin degrees of freedom in bilayer graphene using a perpendicular electric field. We observe a new even-denominator fractional quantum Hall state at filling factor v = 5/2 and the appearance of predicted daughter states and anti-Pfaffian states. These findings pave the way for manipulating valley isospin in bilayer graphene to engineer exotic topological orders and quantum information processes.

Summary: Quantum Hall states have unique quantum phases characterized by gapless edge modes. The most studied nonabelian state is the spin-polarized filling factor 5/2, which can have different topological orders. By interfacing this state with another, we were able to identify its topological order as the particle-hole Pfaffian (PH-Pf) order.

Summary: In this study, we report energy-selective tunneling readout-based Hamiltonian parameter estimation of a two-electron spin qubit in a GaAs quantum dot array. By optimizing the readout fidelity, we achieved an average single-shot measurement time of 16 μs, along with adaptive initialization and efficient qubit frequency estimation based on realtime Bayesian inference. We observed a 40-fold increase in coherence time for qubit operation in a frequency heralded mode, without resorting to dynamic nuclear polarization. Additionally, we demonstrated active frequency feedback with quantum oscillation visibility, single-shot measurement fidelity, and gate fidelity of 97.7%, 99%, and 99.6%, respectively, showcasing the improvements in the overall capabilities of GaAs-based spin qubits. Pushing the sensitivity of energy-selective tunneling-based spin to charge conversion to the limit, this technique is useful for advanced quantum control protocols such as error mitigation schemes, where fast qubit parameter calibration with a high signal-to-noise ratio is crucial.

Summary: This study demonstrates the characteristics and dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensation of dark excitons in GaAs coupled quantum wells at low temperatures. The results show that the condensate extends spatially beyond the optical excitation region and its density is determined by spin-flipping collisions among the excitons. The interaction between bright excitons and the condensate leads to its depletion.

Summary: This study gapped out the integer modes by interfacing the nu = 5/2 state with integer states nu = 2 and nu = 3, and measured the thermal conductance of the isolated-interface channel. The measured half-quantized thermal conductance confirms the non-abelian nature of the nu = 5/2 state and its particle-hole Pfaffian topological order.

Summary: Thermal conductance measurements are crucial in condensed-matter physics for understanding topological order in two-dimensional topological insulators. A new local power measurement technique is presented to reveal the topological thermal Hall conductance, going beyond traditional two-terminal conductance measurements. This technique also proves useful in studying power carried by current fluctuations of partitioned edge modes with out-of-equilibrium distributions.

Summary: We demonstrate the simultaneous operation and measurement of two-electron spin qubits, decoupled from nuclear noise, in a GaAs quadruple quantum dot array. Coherent Rabi oscillations of both qubits are achieved by tuning their drive frequency using real-time Hamiltonian estimators. Strong two-qubit capacitive interaction and state-conditional frequency shift are observed, consistent with theoretical predictions. The high coherence to conditional phase-flip time ratio suggests the potential for generating high-fidelity and fast quantum entanglement using a simple capacitive interaction.

Summary: The dependence of amplitudes of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations on the magnetic field in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure samples irradiated with microwave radiation in the range of 130-170 GHz has been studied. Two features of radiation-induced suppression of amplitudes have been identified, with resonances appearing at the second harmonic and a more complex dependence of the second resonance on radiation frequency. Resonance absorption at the second harmonic may explain the anomalous peak in magnetoresistance observed recently.
