Quantum matrix geometry in the lowest Landau level and higher Landau levels (2212.05277v1)

Abstract: One of the most celebrated works of Professor Madore is the introduction of fuzzy sphere. I briefly review how the fuzzy two-sphere and its higher dimensional cousins are realized in the (spherical) Landau models in non-Abelian monopole backgrounds. For extracting quantum geometry from the Landau models, we evaluate the matrix elements of the coordinates of spheres in the lowest and higher Landau levels. For the lowest Landau level, the matrix geometry is identified as the geometry of fuzzy sphere. Meanwhile for the higher Landau levels, the obtained quantum geometry turns out to be a nested matrix geometry with no classical counterpart. There exists a hierarchical structure between the fuzzy geometries and the monopoles in different dimensions. That dimensional hierarchy signifies a Landau model counterpart of the dimensional ladder of quantum anomaly.
