Laughlin state unique ground state?

In the FQHE, one typically encounters the statement that the $\nu = 1/3$ Laughlin state is a unique exact ground state of a model Hamiltonian where the Haldane pseudopotentials $V_1 \neq 0$ and $V_m = ...

Equivilence of One Flux Quantum and Zero Flux

In Ady Stern's review of the Quantum Hall effect, he says of a quantum hall system "The spectrum at $\Phi = \Phi_0$ is the same as the spectrum at $\Phi = 0$..." Can someone explain why this is? It ...

guage invariance in Laughlin's argument

In Laughlin's gedanken experiment which aims to explain quantization of Hall conductance, one takes the adiabatic derivative of the Hamiltonian with respect to vector potential. Now it seems that it ...

Isn't it incorrect for the minimal gauge coupling and related calculations in Prof. Ezawa's book on quantum Hall effect?

He is CORRECT. I use $\mathbf{B}=\left(0,0,B_{\perp}\right)$ and he use $\mathbf{B}=\left(0,0,-B_{\perp}\right)$. $B_{\perp}>0$. Nov.28.2012 Basically I got mad with conventions. 1.Here is the ...

Is Fractional quantum Hall effect proof that leptons are composite particles?

The fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) is a physical phenomenon in which the Hall conductance of 2D electrons shows precisely quantised plateaus at fractional values. Should this be considered ...

“Classical” limit of Quantum Hall Effect

Imagine a partially filled $\nu=1$ state of the integer quantum Hall effect (IQHE). One way to think about it is to imagine a gas of electrons where each particle is locked to the lowest quantum state ...

What is the energy functional for v=5/2 Moore-Read state?

I am trying to do some Monte Carlo simulations for Pfaffian state from Fractional Quantum Hall effect. I am wondering what is the energy functional for v=5/2 Moore-Read state?
