Motivated by the quasiparticle wavefunction in the composite fermion (CF) theory for fractional quantum Hall filling factor $\nu = 1/m$, I consider a suitable quasiparticle operator in differential form, as a modified form of Laughlin's…
It has recently been pointed out that phases of matter with intrinsic topological order, like the fractional quantum Hall states, have an extra dynamical degree of freedom that corresponds to quantum geometry. Here we perform extensive…
The physics of the fractional quantum Hall effect is the physics of interacting electrons confined to a macroscopically degenerate Landau level. In this Chapter we discuss the theory of the quantum Hall effect in systems where the electrons…
The QHE is studied in the context of a CFT. An effective field of $N$ ``spins" associated with the cyclotron motion of particles is taken as an order parameter from which an effective Hamiltonian may be defined. This effective Hamiltonian…
States of strongly interacting particles are of fundamental interest in physics, and can produce exotic emergent phenomena and topological structures. We consider here two-dimensional electrons in a magnetic field, and, departing from the…
The pseudopotentials describing interaction of Laughlin quasielectrons (QE) and quasiholes (QH) in an infinite fractional quantum Hall system are studied. The QE and QH pseudopotentials are similar which suggests the (approximate)…
We consider the generating functional (logarithm of the normalization factor) of the Laughlin state on a sphere, in the limit of a large number of particles $N$. The problem is reformulated in terms of a perturbative expansion of a 2d QFT,…
We investigate fractional quantum Hall states for model interactions restricted to a repulsive hard-core. When the hard-core excludes relative angular momentum $m=1$ between spinless electrons the ground state at Landau level filling factor…
