Parafermions in hierarchical fractional quantum Hall states

Recent theoretical progress has been achieved in demonstrating the existence of non-Abelian parafermion zero modes in domain walls on interfaces between two-dimensional Abelian topological phases of matter. Motivated by this ongoing search for non-Abelian defects, we investigate the properties of ga...
