Abstract
Motivated by the observation of even denominator fractional quantum Hall effect in the n=3 Landau level of monolayer graphene [Kim etal., Nat. Phys. 15, 154 (2019)NPAHAX1745-247310.1038/s41567-018-0355-x], we consider a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer variational state for composite fermions and find that the composite-fermion Fermi sea in this Landau level is unstable to an f-wave pairing. Analogous calculation suggests the possibility of a p-wave pairing of composite fermions at half filling in the n=2 graphene Landau level, whereas no pairing instability is found at half filling in the n=0 and n=1 graphene Landau levels. The relevance of these results to experiments is discussed.
