The solution explains how the absence of the time-reversal symmetry at high energies due to chiral edge propagation makes the universal two-terminal conductance of the FQHL fractionally quantized and different from that of a 1D Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid wire, where a similar model but preserving the time-reversal symmetry predicts unsuppressed free-electron conductance.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-03-13T21:10:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fractional quantum hall edge", "universal conductance", "broken symmetry", "predicts unsuppressed free-electron conductance", "symmetry predicts unsuppressed free-electron" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
