Exact Analytic Results for Composite Fermions in a Rajaraman-Sondhi like formulation

Abstract

We obtain the exact spectrum and the unique ground state of two composite fermions (in a Rajaraman - Sondhi like formulation) in an external magnetic field BB. We show that the energy eigenvalues decrease with increasing angular momentum, thus making it energetically favourable for composite fermions to stay apart. Generalising this result to a gas of composite fermions, we provide an energetic justification of the Laughlin and Jain wave-functions.
