Wave Function of the Largest Skyrmion on a Sphere
Abstract
It has been clarified that charged excitation known as a skyrmion exists around the ferromagnetic ground state at the Landau level filling factor , where is an odd integer. An infinite sized skyrmion is realized in the absence of the spin-Zeeman splitting or for double-layered systems. Analytical form of the wave function is identified at and through exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian for finite sized spherical systems. It is clarified that the skyrmion wave functions at and are qualitatively different: they are not related by the composite fermion transformation. Long-range behavior of the skyrmion wave function around is shown to be consistent with the semiclassical picture of the skyrmion.
