Study of composite fermions: Beyond few particle systems

Condensed Matter 2008-02-03 v2

Abstract

We construct a new representation of composite fermion wave functions in the lowest Landau level which enables Monte Carlo computations at arbitrary filling factors for a fairly large number of composite fermions, thus clearing the way toward a more detailed quantitative investigation of the fractional quantum Hall effect. As an illustrative application, thermodynamic estimates for the transport gaps of several spin polarized incompressible states have been obtained.
