Symmetry group and symplectic structure for exotic particles in the plane

Abstract

Position coordinates of \exotic" particles, associated with the 2-parameter central extension of the planar Galilei group, do not commute. Realization of the model in solid state Physics, via Berry phase e®ects, and the relation to anyons are discussed.

Relativistic and nonrelativistic anyons are described in a unified formalism by means of the coadjoint orbits of the symmetry groups in the free case as well as when there is an interaction with a constant electromagnetic field. To deal with interactions we introduce the extended Poincaré and Galilei Maxwell groups. 1

Taking advantage of the two-parameter central extension of the planar Galilei group, we construct a non relativistic particle model in the plane. Owing to the extra structure, the coordinates do not commute. Our model can be viewed as the non-relativistic counterpart of the relativistic anyon considered before by Jackiw and Nair. For a particle moving in a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane, the two parameters combine with the magnetic field to provide an effective mass. For vanishing effective mass the phase space admits a two-dimensional reduction, which represents the condensation to collective “Hall” motions, and justifies the rule called “Peierls substitution”. Quantization yields the wave functions proposed by Laughlin to describe the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect.

Anyon wave equations and the noncommutative plane

P. A. Horváthy, Mikhail S. Plyushchay

The “Jackiw–Nair” nonrelativistic limit of the relativistic anyon equations provides us with infinite-component wave equations of the Dirac–Majorana–Lévy-Leblond type for the “exotic” particle, associated with the two-fold central extension of the planar Galilei group. An infinite dimensional representation of the Galilei group is found. The velocity operator is studied, and the observable coordinates describing a noncommutative plane are identified.
