We construct an explicit duality between the interacting quantum Hall system in the lowest Landau level and a non-interacting Landau problem. This is done by absorbing the interaction into the gauge field in the form of an effective…

Atomic vapors can be prepared and manipulated at very low densities and temperatures. When they are rotating, they can reach a quantum Hall regime in which there should be manifestations of the fractional quantum Hall effect. We discuss the…
