Jastrow form of the Ground State Wave Functions for Fractional Quantum Hall States
Abstract: The topological morphology--order of zeros at the positions of electrons with respect to a specific electron--of Laughlin state at filling fractions $1/m$ ($m$ odd) is homogeneous as every electron feels zeros of order $m$ at the positions of other electrons. Although fairly accurate ground state wave functions for most of the other quantum Hall states in the lowest Landau level are quite well-known, it had been an open problem in expressing the ground state wave functions in terms of flux-attachment to particles, {\em a la}, this morphology of Laughlin state. With a very general consideration of flux-particle relations only, in spherical geometry, we here report a novel method for determining morphologies of these states. Based on these, we construct almost exact ground state wave-functions for the Coulomb interaction. Although the form of interaction may change the ground state wave-function, the same morphology constructs the latter irrespective of the nature of the interaction between electrons.
