【 摘 要 】

We investigate the ground-state properties of the fractional quantum Hall effect at the filling factor nu = 2/3 and 2 + 2/3, with a special focus on their typical edge physics. Via a topological characterization scheme in the framework of the density matrix renormalization group, the nature of the nu = 2/3 and 2 + 2/3 states is identified as an Abelian hole-type Laughlin state, as evidenced by the fingerprint of entanglement spectra, central charge, and topological spin. Crucially, by constructing an interface between the 2/3 (2 + 2/3) state and different integer quantum Hall states, we study the structures of the interfaces from many aspects, including charge density and dipole moment. In particular, we demonstrate the edge reconstruction by visualizing edge channels comprised of two groups: the outermost 1/3 channel and the inner composite channel made of a charged mode and neutral modes.
