Laughlin states and their quasi-particle excitations on the torus

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2016-07-06 v2

Abstract

We provide a full derivation of Laughlin's Jastrow-type wave functions for quantized Hall states subject to periodic boundary conditions using an operator formalism. The construction includes the quasi-hole and the technically more challenging quasi-electron excitation, which was left as an open problem in the classic paper by Haldane and Rezayi [Phys. Rev. B 31, 2529 (1985)].
