We show that the complete and orthonormal representation 〈λ|, which is constructed in terms of guiding centers and canonical momenta for describing the coordinate of an electron in a uniform magnetic field, provides us with a direct algebraic approach to deriving the correct wave functions for studying quantum Hall effect. The squeezing transformation for electron’s motion radius in the 〈λ| representation is also discussed, normally ordered squeezing operators are derived by virtue of the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators.

By virtue of the <λ| representation (Hong-yi Fan and Yong Ren, Mod. Phys. Lett.B10, 523 (1996)), which is useful for studying quantum Hall effect, we reveal that a squeezing mechanism directly corresponding to the variation of electron's cyclotron frequency is involved in the dynamics of an electron in a uniform magnetic field and a harmonic potential. Electron's wave functions are also derived by the squeezing transformation in the <λ| representation.

We study the low temperature properties of two-dimensional ideal gases of generalized statistics in a uniform magnetic field. The generalized statistics considered here are the parafermion statistics and the exclusion statistics. Similarity in the behaviors of the parafermion gas of finite order p and the gas with exclusion coefficient g=1/p at very low temperatures is noted. These two systems become exactly equivalent at T=0. Quantum Hall effect with these particles as charge carriers is briefly discussed.

One kind of hierarchical wave functions of Fractional Quantum Hall Effect (FQHE) on the torus are constructed. The multi-component nature of anyon wave functions and the degeneracy of FQHE on the torus are very clearly reflected in this kind of wave functions. We also calculate the braid statistics of the quasiparticles in FQHE on the torus and show they fit the picture of anyons interacting with magnetic field on the torus obtained from braid group analysis.

AbstractIt is widely held that disorder is essential to the existence of a finite interval of magnetic field in which the Hall conductance is quantized, i.e., for the existence of “plateaus” in the quantum Hall effect. Here, we show that the existence of a quasi-particle Wigner crystal (QPWC) results in the persistence of plateaus of finite extent even in the limit of vanishing disorder. Several experimentally detectable features that characterize the behavior in the zero disorder limit are also explored.
