Abstract

Fractional quantum Hall states have been observed at filling factor $\nu=3/4$ in three platforms. General theoretical analysis of topological orders at $\nu=3/4$ revealed that four types of non-Abelian states with Ising anyons have ground state degeneracy $12$ on the torus. The properties of $\nu=3/4$ states can be analyzed using two complementary approaches. In the first one, they are treated as particle-hole conjugate of $\nu=1/4$ Moore-Read types states. In the second one, they are mapped to composite fermions with reverse flux attachment at effective filling factor $3/2$, whose integral part realizes an integer quantum Hall state and the fractional part realizes $\nu=1/2$ Moore-Read type states. For the specific case of bilayer graphene, numerical calculations demonstrate that strong Landau level mixing could generate a gapped state at $\nu=3/4$ with 12 fold ground state degeneracy on the torus. Its chiral graviton spectral functions has one low energy peak with negative chirality and one high energy peak with positive chirality. This points to a specific member of the Moore-Read type states and agrees with the deduction based on daughter states.<br />Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures
