We investigate Laughlin's fractional quantum Hall effect wave function in the cylinder geometry of Laughlin's integer quantum Hall effect argument, at filling factor 1/3. We show that the plasma analogy leads to a periodic density, and that…
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…

A textbook chain of reasoning, originating with Girvin, MacDonald, and Platzman, predicts that Landau-level mixing (LLM) at nu=1/3 should soften the long-wavelength structure factor S(L): virtual excitations suppress V_1, the magnetoroton…
The fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) in the second Landau level (SLL) likely stabilizes non-Abelian topological orders. Recently, a parton sequence has been proposed to capture many of the fractions observed in the SLL [Ajit C. Balram,…
We present an effective theory for the bulk fractional quantum Hall states on the Jain sequences on closed surfaces and show that it has a universal form whose structure does not change from fraction to fraction. The structure of this…
A set of scalar operators are employed to generate explicit representations of both hierarchy states (e.g., the series of fillings 1/3, 2/5, 3/7, ... ) and their conjugates (fillings 1, 2/3, 3/5, ...) as non-interacting quasi-electrons…
In this paper, a series of $\nu=2/5$ fractional quantum Hall wave functions are constructed from conformal field theory(CFT). They share the same topological properties with states constructed by Jain's composite fermion approach. Upon…

We study the quantum Hall states that appear in the dilute limit of rotating ultracold fermionic gases when a single hyperfine species is present. We show that the p-wave scattering translates into a pure hard-core interaction in the lowest…
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…
We solve the quantum Hall problem exactly in a limit and show that the ground states can be organized in a fractal pattern consistent with the Haldane-Halperin hierarchy, and with the global phase diagram. We present wave functions for a…
We propose the effective hierarchical partition function which is able to describe both the Jain states and the Jain-type hierarchical states. Using this partition function (effective Lagrangian) we calculate the charge of the quasiparticle…
