Abstract

The relation between the quantized Hall conductance and other macroscopic quantum effects is discussed. Under the appropriate conditions, fluxoid quantization and a phenomenon similar to the AC Josephson effect are possible in normal conductors.

On leave of absence from the Department of Physics and Astronomy, Tel-Aviv University, Tel-Aviv 69978, Israel.
