A Microscopic Model of Edge States of Fractional Quantum Hall Liquid: From Composite Fermions to Calogero-Sutherland Model

Abstract

Based on the composite fermion approach, we derive a microscopic theory describing the low-lying edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall liquid with $ν=\frac{ν^*}{\tildeϕν^*+1}$. For $ν^*>0$, it is found that the composite fermion model reduces to an SU$(ν^*)$ Calogero-Sutherland model in the one-dimensional limit, whereas it is not exact soluble for $ν^*<0$. However, the ground states in both cases can be found and the low-lying excitations can be shown the chiral Luttinger liquid behaviors since a gap exists between the right- and left-moving sectors in each branch of the azimuthal excitations.

From composite fermions to the Calogero-Sutherland model: Edge of the fractional quantum Hall liquid and the dimension reduction

Yue Yu

We derive a microscopic model describing low-lying edge excitations in a fractional quantum Hall liquid with $\ensuremath{\nu}={\ensuremath{\nu}}^{*}/(\stackrel{\ifmmode \tilde{}\else \~{}\fi{}}{\ensuremath{\varphi}}{\ensuremath{\nu}}^{*}+1).$ For ${\ensuremath{\nu}}^{*}>0,$ it is found that the composite-fermion model reduces to an $\mathrm{SU}({\ensuremath{\nu}}^{*})$ Calogero-Sutherland model in a dimension reduction, whereas it is not exactly soluble for ${\ensuremath{\nu}}^{*}<0.$ However, the ground states in both cases can be found, and the low-lying excitations can show chiral Luttinger-liquid behaviors. On the other hand, we show that the finite-temperature behavior of the $G\ensuremath{-}T$ curve will deviate from the prediction of the chiral Luttinger liquid. We also point out that the suppression of the ``spin'' degrees of freedom agrees with very recent experiments by Chang et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 2538 (1996)]. The two-boson model of Lee and Wen (preprint, cond-mat/9801318) is described microscopically.

The Microscopic Model of Composite Fermion-Type Excitations for ν = 1/ m Edge States

Yu Yue, Zhu Zhongyuan

We derive a microscopic theory of the composite fermion-type quasiparticles describing the low-lying edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall liquid with ν = 1/ m . Using the composite fermion transformation, one finds that the edge states of the system in a disc sample are described by the Calogero–Sutherland-like model (CSLM) in the one-dimensional limit. This result presents the consistency between one-dimensional and two-dimensional statistics. It is shown that the low-lying excitations, indeed, have the chiral Luttinger liquid behaviors because there is a gap between the right-and left-moving excitations of the CSLM.

The Microscopic Model of Composite Particles for ν=1/m FQHE Edge Excitations, its Bosonization and the Chiral Condition

Wenjun Zheng

We derive a microscopic theory of the composite particles describing the low-lying edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall liquid with ν=1/m. Using the composite-particle transformation, one finds that the edge states of the system in a disc sample are described by the Calogero–Sutherland model with other interactions between the composite particles as perturbations. The effects of both the interactions and the confinement potential are considered, and proved unable to change the exponent g=ν=1/m. We also obtain the important chiral condition at the mean field level, and as a result justify microscopically the Chiral Luttinger Liquid model of the FQHE edge states.

Numerical Tests of the Chiral Luttinger Liquid Theory for Fractional Hall Edges

Juan Jose Palacios, Allan H. MacDonald

We report on microscopic numerical studies that support the chiral Luttinger liquid theory of the fractional Hall edge proposed by Wen. Our calculations are based in part on newly proposed and accurate many-body trial wave functions for the low-energy edge excitations of fractional incompressible states.

Microscopic construction of the chiral Luttinger liquid theory of the quantum Hall edge

Alexey Mikhajlovich Boyarsky, Vadim Cheianov, Oleg Ruchayskiy C

We give a microscopic derivation of the chiral Luttinger liquid theory $(\ensuremath{\chi}LL)$ for the Laughlin states. Starting from the wave function describing an arbitrary incompressibly deformed Laughlin state (IDLS) we quantize these deformations. In this way we obtain the low-energy projections of local microscopic operators and derive the quantum field theory of edge excitations directly from quantum mechanics of electrons. This shows that to describe experimental and numeric deviations from $\ensuremath{\chi}LL$ one needs to go beyond Laughlin's approximation. We show that in the large $N$ limit the IDLS is described by the dispersionless Toda hierarchy.

Chiral Luttinger liquids and a generalized Luttinger theorem in fractional quantum Hall edges via finite-entanglement scaling

Dániel Varjas, Michael P. Zaletel, Joel E. Moore

We use bosonic field theories and the infinite system density matrix renormalization group method to study infinite strips of fractional quantum Hall states starting from microscopic Hamiltonians. Finite-entanglement scaling allows us to accurately measure chiral central charge, edge-mode exponents, and momenta without finite-size errors. We analyze states in the first and second levels of the standard hierarchy and compare our results to predictions of the chiral Luttinger liquid theory. The results confirm the universality of scaling exponents in chiral edges and demonstrate that renormalization is subject to universal relations in the nonchiral case. We prove a generalized Luttinger theorem involving all singularities in the momentum-resolved density, which naturally arises when mapping Landau levels on a cylinder to a fermion chain and deepens our understanding of non-Fermi liquids in one dimension.

Based on the composite fermion approach, we derive a microscopic theory describing the low-lying edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall liquid with ν=ν∗ϕ~ν∗+1ν=\frac{ν^*}{\tildeϕν^*+1}ν=ϕ~​ν∗+1ν∗​. For ν∗>0ν^*>0ν∗>0, it is found that the composite fermion model reduces to an SU(ν∗)(ν^*)(ν∗) Calogero-Sutherland model in the one-dimensional limit, whereas it is not exact soluble for ν∗<0ν^*<0ν∗<0. However, the ground states in both cases can be found and the low-lying excitations can be shown the chiral Luttinger liquid behaviors since a gap exists between the right- and left-moving sectors in each branch of the azimuthal excitations.
