Abstract
We have found a solution to a model of tunneling between a multichannel Fermi liquid reservoir and an edge of the principal fractional quantum Hall liquid (FQHL) in the strong-coupling limit. The solution explains how the chiral edge propagation makes the universal two-terminal conductance of the FQHL fractionally quantized and different from that of a 1D Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid wire, where a similar model, but preserving the time reversal symmetry, predicts unsuppressed free-electron conductance.
