Impurity scattering in superconductors

We present some of the recent theoretical studies on the impurity effects in conventional superconductors, such as magnetic and ordinary impurity effects in dirty and weak localization limits, and describe successfully unexplained experimental results. We find that the critical sheet resistance for the suppression of superconductivity in thin films depends on superconductor, and point out that impurity dopings in high T_c superconductors cause a metal-insulator transition and thereby suppress T_c.

Symmetry-breaking skyrmion states in fractional quantum Hall systems

We calculate in an analyical fashion the energies and net spins of skyrmions in fractional quantum Hall systems, based on the suggestion that skyrmion states are spontaneously $L_Z$ and $S_Z$ symmetry-breaking states. The quasihole-skyrmion state with a charge $-e/3$ around $ν$ = 1/3, where the ground state is known as a spin-polarized ferromagnetic state, is found to exist even in high magnetic fields up to about 7 T for GaAs samples.

A microscopic theory of skyrmion excitations in the fractional quantum Hall system

We present a microscopic theory of skyrmion and antiskyrmion excitations in fractional quantum Hall systems, and calculate in an analytical fashion their excitation energies. From the calculated net spins at various fractional filling factors, we find the magnetic field dependence of the spin polarization of the skyrmion-condensated state.

Correlation effects in a quantum dot at high magnetic fields

We investigate the effects of electron correlations on the ground state energy and the chemical potential of a droplet confined by a parabolic potential at high magnetic fields. We demonstrate the importance of correlations in estimating the transition field at which the first edge reconstruction of the maximum density droplet occurs in the spin polarized regime.
