Abstract: We present a unified description of the quantum Hall effect in graphene on the basis of the 8-component Dirac Hamiltonian and the supersymmetric (SUSY) quantum mechanics. It is remarkable that the zero-energy state emerges because the Zeeman splitting is exactly as large as the Landau level separation, as implies that the SUSY is a good symmetry. For nonzero energy states, the up-spin state and the down-spin state form a supermultiplet possessing the spin SU(2) symmetry. We extend the Dirac Hamiltonian to include two indices $j_{uparrow}$ and $j_{downarrow}$, characterized by the dispersion relation $E(p)propto{p}^{j_{uparrow}+j_{downarrow}}$ and the Berry phase $pi(j_{uparrow}-j_{downarrow})$. The quantized Hall conductivity is shown to be $sigm{a}_{xy}=pm(2n+j_{uparrow}+j_{downarrow})2e^2/h$.
