Parton wave function for the fractional quantum Hall effect at ν=6/17
We consider the fractional quantum Hall effect at the filling ν=6/17, where experiments have observed features of incompressibility in the form of a minimum in the longitudinal resistance. We propose a parton state denoted as “32[over ¯]1^{3}” and show it to be a feasible candidate to capture the gr...

description | We consider the fractional quantum Hall effect at the filling ν=6/17, where experiments have observed features of incompressibility in the form of a minimum in the longitudinal resistance. We propose a parton state denoted as “32[over ¯]1^{3}” and show it to be a feasible candidate to capture the ground state at ν=6/17. We work out the low-energy effective theory of the 32[over ¯]1^{3} edge and make several predictions for experimentally measurable properties of the state which can help detect its underlying topological order. Intriguingly, we find that the 32[over ¯]1^{3} state likely lies in the same universality class as the state obtained from composite-fermionizing the 1+1/5 Laughlin state. |
