Phase-shift instanton approach to tunneling duality in Read--Rezayi state

We study the duality between quasi-particle and electron tunneling in point-contact geometries of fractional quantum Hall states. To treat non-Abelian edge operators, we introduce a "phase-shift instanton" that incorporates phase factors from primary fields into the instanton gas framework. Using this method, we reformulate the Moore--Read duality and obtain an explicit dual description for the k=3 Read-Rezayi state. Our results clarify how quasi-particle tunneling produces characteristic phase shifts in instantons and how these shifts map strong quasi-particle tunneling to weak electron tunneling. Based on this dual description, we analytically evaluate the non-linear differential conductance in the strong-coupling regime. We reveal that, due to the physical requirement that the tunneling particle across the vacuum gap must be a true fermion, the transport behavior universally converges to a G proportional to V 4 scaling for both the Moore--Read and Read--Rezayi states. This universal transport signature highlights a fundamental topological constraint underlying non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall edges.
