Conformal Invariance and Multifractality at Anderson Transitions in Arbitrary Dimensions.

Multifractals arise in various systems across nature whose scaling behavior is characterized by a continuous spectrum of multifractal exponents Δ_{q}. In the context of Anderson transitions, the multifractality of critical wave functions is described by operators O_{q} with scaling dimensions Δ_{q} in a field-theory description of the transitions. The operators O_{q} satisfy the so-called Abelian fusion expressed as a simple operator product expansion.

Scaling Collapse of Longitudinal Conductance near the Integer Quantum Hall Transition.

Within the mature field of Anderson transitions, the critical properties of the integer quantum Hall transition still pose a significant challenge. Numerical studies of the transition suffer from strong corrections to scaling for most observables. In this Letter, we suggest to overcome this problem by using the longitudinal conductance g of the network model as the scaling observable, which we compute for system sizes nearly 2 orders of magnitude larger than in previous studies.

Criticality of Two-Dimensional Disordered Dirac Fermions in the Unitary Class and Universality of the Integer Quantum Hall Transition.

Two-dimensional (2D) Dirac fermions are a central paradigm of modern condensed matter physics, describing low-energy excitations in graphene, in certain classes of superconductors, and on surfaces of 3D topological insulators. At zero energy E=0, Dirac fermions with mass m are band insulators, with the Chern number jumping by unity at m=0. This observation lead Ludwig et al.

Finite-size effects and irrelevant corrections to scaling near the integer quantum Hall transition.

We present a numerical finite-size scaling study of the localization length in long cylinders near the integer quantum Hall transition employing the Chalker-Coddington network model. Corrections to scaling that decay slowly with increasing system size make this analysis a very challenging numerical problem. In this work we develop a novel method of stability analysis that allows for a better estimate of error bars.

Exact exponents for the spin quantum Hall transition in the presence of multiple edge channels.

Critical properties of quantum Hall systems are affected by the presence of extra edge channels-those that are present, in particular, at higher plateau transitions. We study this phenomenon for the case of the spin quantum Hall transition. Using supersymmetry, we map the corresponding network model to a classical loop model, whose boundary critical behavior was recently determined exactly.
