Quantum Hall states as matrix Chern-Simons theory

Alexios P. Polychronakos

We propose a finite Chern-Simons matrix model on the plane as an effective description of fractional quantum Hall fluids of finite extent. The quantization of the inverse filling fraction and of the quasiparticle number is shown to arise quantum mechanically and to agree with Laughlin theory. We also point out the effective equivalence of this model, and therefore of the quantum Hall system, with the Calogero model.

Chern-Simons Theory and Non-Abelian Anyons in Fractional Quantum Hall States — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Chern-Simons theory at level \(k\) governs fractional quantum Hall anyons; braiding produces non-abelian phases encoded in the Jones polynomial; lattice realizations confirm topological invariance; a novel CKM angle measurement is unrelated to topological physics. MATH: Chern-Simons action \(S_{CS} = \frac{k}{4\pi}\int \text{Tr}(A\wedge dA + \frac{2}{3}A\wedge A\wedge A)\); level \(k \in \mathbb{Z}\) (integer QHE) or \(k = p/q\) (fractional QHE, e.g., \(k=1/3\) for Laughlin state); anyon braiding phase \(\theta = \pi/k\) (abelian) or unitary matrix \(U_{ab}\) (non-abelian, e.g., Fibonacci anyons with \(U \sim e^{i\pi/5}\)); entanglement entropy \(S_A = \alpha L - \gamma\), with topological entanglement entropy \(\gamma = \ln \sqrt{D}\), \(D = \sum_i d_i^2\) (quantum dimensions); lattice Chern-Simons reproduces continuum in limit \(a \to 0\) with \(k\) quantized. CONNECTION: Level \(k=5\) gives Fibonacci anyons with quantum dimension \(d = \phi = 1.618\) (golden ratio) — di Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
