The second-quantized form of the Laughlin states for the fractional quantum Hall effect is discussed by decomposing the Laughlin wavefunctions into the N-particle Slater basis. A general formula is given for the expansion coefficients in terms of the characters of the symmetric group, and the expansion coefficients are shown to possess numerous interesting symmetries. For expectation values of the density operator it is possible to identify individual dominant Slater states of the correct uniform bulk density and filling fraction in the physically relevant N→∞ limit.

It is shown that the noncommutativity in quantum Hall system may get modified. The self-adjoint extension of the corresponding Hamiltonian leads to a family of noncommutative geometry labeled by the self-adjoint extension parameters. We explicitly perform an exact calculation using a singular interaction and show that, when projected to a certain Landau level, the emergent noncommutative geometries of the projected coordinates belong to a one-parameter family. There is a possibility of obtaining the filling fraction of fractional quantum Hall effect by suitably choosing the value of the self-adjoint extension parameter.

In this letter, we introduce Fractional Quantum Hall Effect (FQHE) Skyrmions in the Chern–Simons effective field theory description, and we present a new derivation of the FQHE Skyrmions properties, namely charge and spin, which results from considerations at the edge of the Hall sample. At the boundary, we demand anomaly cancellation for the chiral edge currents, as well as, allow for the possibility of Skyrmion creation and annihilation. For the Skyrmion charge and spin, we get the values eνN Sky and νN Sky /2, respectively, where e is electron charge, ν is the filling fraction and N Sky is the Skyrmion winding number. We also add terms to the action so that the classical spin fluctuations in the bulk satisfy the standard equations of a ferromagnet and find that spin waves propagate with the classical drift velocity of the electron.

The dynamical theory of the edge excitations of generic fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states is summarized and expanded. The low energy effective theory of the edge excitations for the most general abelian FQH states (including spin-unpolarized and multi-layer FQH states) and some non-abelian FQH states is derived using several different methods. The propagators of the electrons and the quasiparticles are calculated for the above FQH states. The microscopic theory of the edge excitations for the Laughlin states is also presented. Some simple applications of the edge theory to the transport properties of the FQH states are discussed. In particular, the tunneling between edge states is shown to be a powerful tool to probe the internal topological orders in the FQH states. It can be used to distinguish different FQH states with the same filling fraction and to detect the non-abelian FQH states in experiments.

We discuss quantum Hall effect in the presence of arbitrary pair interactions between electrons. It is shown that, irrespective of the interaction strength, the Hall conductivity is given by the filling fraction of Landau levels averaged over the ground state of the system. This conclusion remains valid for both the integer and fractional quantum Hall effect.

We examine Chern–Simons theory written on a noncommutative plane with a "hole", and show that the algebra of observables is a nonlinear deformation of the w∞ algebra. The deformation depends on the level (the coefficient in the Chern–Simons action), and the noncommutativity parameter, which were identified, respectively, with the inverse filling fraction (minus one) and the inverse density in a recent description of the fractional quantum Hall effect. We remark on the quantization of our algebra. The results are sensitive to the choice of ordering in the Gauss law.
