We consider the lowest Landau level on a torus as a function of its circumference $L_1$. When $L_1\to 0$, the ground state at general rational filling fraction is a crystal with a gap--a Tao-Thouless state. For filling fractions…

We study the ground state of a clean two-dimensional electron liquid in a weak magnetic field where $N \gg 1$ lower Landau levels are completely filled and the upper level is partially filled. It is shown that the electrons at the upper…

The correlation functions of two-dimensional anyon fields in a KMS-state are studied. For T=0 the $n$-particle wave functions of noncanonical fermions of level $\alpha$, $\alpha$ odd, are shown to be of Laughlin type of order $\alpha$. For…

Laughlin's wave functions, describing the fractional quantum Hall effect at filling factors $\nu=1/(2k+1)$, can be obtained as correlation functions in conformal field theory, and recently this construction was extended to Jain's composite…

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…

We study the universal long-distance behaviour of the Laughlin state for the fractional quantum Hall effect and the ground state of the Calogero-Sutherland model (one dimensional $1/r^2$ interaction model). In particular, it is shown that…

In this short note we show that any action for $N$ interacting particles can be made invariant under gauged Galilean transformations. While resulting Lagrangian is generally very complicated its Hamiltonian has simple form with first class…

We consider spin-polarized electrons in a single Landau level on a torus. The quantum Hall problem is mapped onto a one-dimensional lattice model with lattice constant $2\pi/L_1$, where $L_1$ is a circumference of the torus (in units of the…

The nonequilibrium steady state of a granular fluid, driven by a random external force, is demonstrated to exhibit long range correlations, which behave as $\sim 1/r$ in three and $\sim \ln(L/r)$ in two dimensions. We calculate the…

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…
