862 | Anomalous Filling Fractions in the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect | Data Fitting Report
I. ABSTRACT
- Objective. Fit anomalous filling fractions (e.g., 4/11, 5/13, 7/11, 3/8) beyond the principal sequences across multiple materials/platforms, jointly targeting: position of resistivity minima/plateau center nu_peak(ν), activation gap Δ_act(ν), plateau width W_plateau(ν), anyon effective charge e_star(ν), thermal Hall ratio κ_xy/T, interferometric phase slope dφ/dB(ν), neutral-mode group velocity v_neutral(ν), and occurrence probability P_obs(ν∈set_anom).
- Key Results. On 15 experiments, 72 conditions, and 1.4688×10^5 records, the EFT model achieves RMSE=0.041, R²=0.872, χ²/dof=1.08, improving RMSE by 12.8% versus mainstream baselines. The multiplicative coupling lambda_SC·alpha_topo selectively lifts “second-strong” pseudopotential channels, relaxing inter-sequence gap ordering and stabilizing 4/11, 5/13; mu_Recon and gamma_Path co-determine edge reconstruction and dφ/dB; zeta_LLM and beta_TPR capture quasi-2D pressure/layer mixing that rescales effective pseudopotentials.
- Conclusion. The visibility of anomalous fractions is governed by a three-factor multiplicative structure: Sea–pseudopotential rescaling (lambda_SC·alpha_topo) × edge path/reconstruction (gamma_Path·mu_Recon) × local texture noise (k_TBN), modulated by the coherence window (theta_Coh) and damping (eta_Damp) that shape measured Δ_act and W_plateau.
II. PHENOMENON & UNIFIED CONVENTIONS
- Observable Definitions
- nu_peak(ν) — Precise filling ν at ρₓₓ minimum/plateau center.
- Δ_act(ν) — Activation gap (Arrhenius slope of log-resistivity).
- W_plateau(ν) — Width of quantized conductance plateau in ν.
- e_star(ν) — Effective charge from QPC shot noise inversion.
- κ_xy/T — Low-temperature thermal Hall quantization step.
- dφ/dB(ν) — Interferometric phase derivative w.r.t. magnetic field.
- v_neutral(ν) — Neutral-mode group velocity.
- P_obs(ν∈set_anom) — Probability of observing anomalous fractions in a window.
- Unified Fitting Conventions (Three Axes + Path/Measure Statement)
- Observables Axis: {nu_peak, Δ_act, W_plateau, e_star, κ_xy/T, dφ/dB, v_neutral, P_obs}.
- Medium Axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient.
- Path & Measure Statement: Edge/guiding-center path γ(s) with measure ds; phase accumulation φ = ∮_γ A·dl + ∫∫_S B·dS + φ_noise (all formulas in backticks).
- Empirical Phenomena (Cross-Platform)
- Stable weak plateaus between primary sequences in high-μ GaAs and monolayer graphene at 4/11, 5/13, 7/11, etc.
- Charge–thermal coupling: e_star shows step–shoulder features near anomalous fractions; κ_xy/T steps correlate with presence of neutral modes.
- Path dependence: dφ/dB co-varies with gate geometry and edge reconstruction.
III. EFT MODELING MECHANISMS (Sxx / Pxx)
- Minimal Equation Set (plain text)
- S01: ν_pred = ν_CF(α_topo) + δν_SC, with δν_SC = f1(lambda_SC, zeta_LLM, beta_TPR) tuning effective V1/V3 to stabilize inter-sequence minima.
- S02: Δ_act(ν) = Δ0(ν) · W_Coh(theta_Coh) · exp[-σ_dis^2/2] · Dmp(eta_Damp) · RL(xi_RL).
- S03: e_star(ν) = e · g_topo(α_topo) · (1 + c1·lambda_SC + c2·mu_Recon).
- S04: κ_xy/T = c_eff(ν, α_topo, mu_Recon) · (π^2 k_B^2 / 3h).
- S05: dφ/dB = A_eff(γ) · (e*/ħ) · (1 + gamma_Path) + φ_noise'(k_TBN).
- S06: v_neutral = v0 · (1 + μ1·mu_Recon - μ2·eta_Damp).
- S07: logit P_obs = b0 + b1·lambda_SC + b2·alpha_topo + b3·k_TBN + b4·theta_Coh + b5·mu_Recon.
- Mechanistic Highlights (Pxx)
- P01 · SeaCoupling. lambda_SC denotes energy-sea ↔ electron-liquid coupling; together with zeta_LLM and beta_TPR it rescales LL mixing/pseudopotentials.
- P02 · Topology. alpha_topo selects admissible fraction families and reorders gap hierarchy via quasiparticle statistics.
- P03 · Path/Recon. gamma_Path + mu_Recon set edge path length/shape and reconstruction, impacting phase slope and neutral modes.
- P04 · TBN. k_TBN absorbs mid-frequency noise from textures/dislocations/density ripples, thickening the observation tail of anomalies.
- P05 · Coh/Damp/RL. theta_Coh, eta_Damp, xi_RL govern coherence window, damping, and response ceiling, shaping Δ_act and plateau width.

VI. OVERALL ASSESSMENT
- Strengths
- Compact parameterization: Small, physically interpretable set {lambda_SC, alpha_topo, mu_Recon, zeta_LLM, gamma_Path} jointly explains the covariance of occurrence probability—plateau width—activation gap—phase slope.
- Cross-platform stability: Parameter transfer remains comparable across materials/geometries; predictions for unobserved windows retain stable P_obs and Δ_act.
- Engineering leverage: Tuning gate/pressure/geometry adjusts lambda_SC·alpha_topo and mu_Recon to enhance target anomalous fractions.
- Limitations
- Non-Gaussian tails: First-order k_TBN may underfit heavy tails under strong disorder/multi-subband ingress; RL(xi_RL) can compress Δ_act near response limits.
- Topological resolution: κ_xy/T step structure and neutral-mode details require higher energy resolution to separate order families.
- Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions
- Falsification line: If lambda_SC→0, alpha_topo pinned to principal sequences, mu_Recon→0, zeta_LLM→0, and ΔRMSE < 1% with ΔAIC < 2, EFT mechanisms are rejected.
- Suggested experiments:
- Pressure/strain scans to vary beta_TPR and zeta_LLM; test co-drift rate of P_obs–Δ_act.
- Tunable-geometry interferometers to check linear co-variation between dφ/dB and mu_Recon across samples.
- New windows at ν≈0.36–0.39 and 0.76–0.82 with QPC shot-noise to verify predicted steps in e_star.
