Abstract

Spins of fields are investigated in terms of the zero-energy eigenstates of 2-dimensional Schro¨\ddot {\rm o}dinger equations with central potentials Va(ρ)=a2gaρ2(a1)V_a(\rho)=-a^2g_a\rho^{2(a-1)} (a0a\not=0, ga>0g_a>0 and ρ=x2+y2\rho=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}). We see that for a=N/2a=N/2 (N=N=positive odd integers) one half spin states can naturally be understood as states with the angular momentum l=1l=1 in the ζa\zeta_a plane which is obtained by mapping the xyxy plane in terms of conformal transformations ζa=za\zeta_a=z^a with z=x+iyz=x+iy. It is shown that the scalar and the 1/2-spin fields can obtain masses. Vortex structures and a supersymmetry for the zero-energy states are also pointed out.
