The role of imaginary vector potential in composite fermion pairing theory

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We show that the imaginary vector potential causes a pair-breaking effect in the composite fermion theory, and discuss its irrelevance in the pairing state. The Hamiltonian for pairing states of composite fermions is proposed. The advantage of non-unitary transformations and the meaning of the non-Hermitian term are discussed.
