Lett., vol. 92, 016802 (2004)] investigated \"instanton effects\" in the magneto resistance data taken from samples with heavily Si-doped GaAs layers at low temperatures. This topological issue originally arose in the development of a microscopic theory of quantum Hall effect some 20 years ago. The investigations by Murzin et. al., however, do not convey the correct ideas on scaling that have emerged over the years in the general theory of quantum transport.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-04-28T15:20:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "disordered gaas layers", "topological oscillations", "magnetoconductance", "magneto resistance data taken", "quantum hall effect" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
