Emergent Phenomena in Quantum Hall Systems (EPQHS-3) Held in Matraia, Italy on June 25-28, 2009
Abstract
The workshop was intended to cover the significant experimental progress in the field of two-dimensional electrons that in recent years has led to a wave of new discoveries and has stimulated an impressive theoretical effort. Among them it is worth to mention the observation of novel correlated states and superfluidity in bilayer systems, research on electronic liquid-crystal states in high Landau levels, the radiation-induced zero-resistance states in very low magnetic fields, the discovery of quantum Hall effect in graphene layers and of the quantum spin-Hall effect, and finally proposals and experiments on quantum computing with non-abelian quantum Hall states. These novel emergent fields of research are attracting a large interest of the condensed-matter community. This frontier Symposium EPQHS-3 was intended to bring together a team of leading scientists and young researchers working on these emergent collective electronic states in solids with the goals to focus on the intriguing and exciting new directions outlined above, to review the status of current research and establish new collaborations. The conference had about 70 participants with a large fraction being PhD students and young researchers. There were 26 invited presentations and 18 posters. Many invited talks were given by young researchers (both PhD and post-docs). A list of invited speakers and the topics is included.
