Topological Term

The 2 + 1 Yang-Mills theory allows for an interaction term called the Chern-Simons term. This topological term plays a useful role in understanding the field theoretic description of the excitation of the quantum hall system such as Anyons. While solving the non-Abelian Chern-simons theory is rather complicated, its knotty world allows for a framework for solving it. In the framework, the idea was to relate physical observables with the Jones polynomials. In this note, I will summarize the basic idea leading up to this framework.

Chern Simons Theory

In this paper we show that classical fluid dynamics in a plane is a gauge theory useful for studying aspects of the quantum Hall system. When the fluid is charged and placed in a magnetic field, Chern-Simons fields appear naturally and the fractional statistics of vortex excitations can be understood qualitatively. Applying the fluid picture to a gas of anyons shows that it superconducts.

Chern Simons Theory

We discuss a quantum [Formula: see text] symmetry in the Landau problem, which naturally arises due to the relation between [Formula: see text] and the group of magnetic translations. The latter is connected with W∞ and area-preserving (symplectic) diffeomorphisms which are the canonical transformations in the two-dimensional phase space. We shall discuss the hidden quantum symmetry in a 2 + 1 gauge theory with the Chern–Simons term and in a quantum Hall system, which are both connected with the Landau problem.

One kind of hierarchical wave functions of Fractional Quantum Hall Effect on the torus is constructed. We find that the wave functions are closely related to the wave functions of generalized Abelian Chern-Simons theory.

Chern Simons Theory

We develop a bosonic Chern–Simons theory to describe a two-dimensional electron gas in intermediate magnetic fields. Within this approach, inhomogeneous states emerge in analogy to the intermediate state of a superconductor. At half filling of the highest Landau level we find unidirectional charge-density-wave (CDW) solutions. With a semiclassical calculation we give an intuitive explanation of the change of CDW orientation in the presence of an in-plane magnetic field. An anisotropy in the electron band mass is suggested as a possible source of the reproducible orientation of the CDW.

Chern Simons Theory

We derive the effective-field theory from the microscopic Hamiltonian of interacting two-dimensional (pseudo) Dirac electrons by performing a statistic gauge transformation. The quantized Hall conductance are expected to be σxy=e2/h(2k-1) where k is arbitrary integer. There are also topological excitations which have fractional charge and obey fractional statistics.
