Abstract

We consider the general abelian background configurations for the Haldane-Rezayi quantum Hall state. We determine the stable configurations to be the ones with the spontaneous flux of (Z+1/2)ϕ0(\Z+1/2) \phi_0 with ϕ0=hc/e\phi_0 = hc/e. This gives the physical mechanism by which the edge theory of the state becomes identical to the one for the 331 state. It also provides a new experimental consequence which can be tested in the enigmatic ν=5/2\nu=5/2 plateau in a single layer system.
