Making use of the well-known phase space reduction in the lowest Landau level(LLL), we show that the Laughlin wave function for the $\nu = {1\over m}$ case can be obtained exactly as a coherent state representation of an one dimensional…
We show that the introduction of a more general closed-shell operator allows one to extend Laughlin's wave function to account for the richer hierarchies (1/3, 2/5, 3/7 ...; 1/5, 2/9, 3/13, ..., etc.) found experimentally. The construction…
A simple one-dimensional model is proposed, in which N spinless repulsively interacting fermions occupy M>N degenerate states. It is argued that the energy spectrum and the wavefunctions of this system strongly resemble the spectrum and…

In the study of the quantum Hall effect there are still many unresolved problems. One of these is how to generate representative wave functions for ground states on other geometries than the planar and spherical. We study one such geometry,…
We present explicit expressions for a large set of hierarchy wave functions on the torus. Included are the Laughlin states, the states in the positive Jain series, and recently observed states at e.g. $\nu = 4/11$. The techniques we use…
The reduction of the energy gap due to Landau level mixing, characterized by the dimensionless parameter $\lambda = (e^2/\epsilon l_0)/\hbar\omega_c$, has been calculated by variational Monte Carlo for the fractional quantum Hall effect at…
We study the Laughlin wave function on the cylinder. We find it only describes an incompressible fluid when the two lengths of the cylinder are comparable. As the radius is made smaller at fixed area, we observe a continuous transition to…
We propose a new ground state trial wavefunction for a two-dimensional Wigner crystal in a strong perpendicular magnetic field. The wavefunction includes Laughlin-Jastrow correlations between electron pairs, and may be interpreted as a…
In projective measurements of energy, a target system is projected to an eigenstate of the system Hamiltonian, and the measurement outcomes provide the information of corresponding eigen-energies. Recently, it has been shown that such a…
The topological morphology--order of zeros at the positions of electrons with respect to a specific electron--of Laughlin state at filling fractions $1/m$ ($m$ odd) is homogeneous as every electron feels zeros of order $m$ at the positions…

We study two alternative definitions of localized states in the lowest Landau level (LLL) on a torus. One definition is to construct localized states, as projection of the coordinate delta function onto the LLL. Another definition, proposed…
