Phys. Rev. Lett. 73, 874–877 (1994)Quantum Hall ferromagnetsReceived 4 February 1994; published in the issue dated 8 August 1994 It was pointed out recently that the ν=1/m quantum Hall states in bilayer systems behave like easy plane quantum ferromagnets. We study the magnetotransport of these systems using their ‘‘ferromagnetic’’ properties and a novel spin-charge relation of their excitations. The general transport is a combination of the usual Hall transport and a time dependent transport with quantized time average. The latter is due to a phase slippage process in spacetime and is characterized by two topological constants. © 1994 The American Physical Society URL:
