Integer quantum Hall effect • Electrons completely fill n Landau levels • gapped ground state • interaction can be treated perturbatively n=2 ∆ = B m n=1 degeneracy BA n=0 2 π
Fractional QHE Electrons fill a fraction ν of a Landau level Interactions cannot be treated perturbatively FQHE exists in the limit of a single Landau level for example, the lowest Landau level
Lowest Landau level limit ( p a + e A a ) 2 e 2 X X H = + 2 m | x a − x b | a h a,b i n= 1 B m n=0
Lowest Landau level limit ( p a + e A a ) 2 e 2 X X H = + 2 m | x a − x b | a h a,b i m → 0 n= 1 B → ∞ m n=0
Lowest Landau level limit ( p a + e A a ) 2 e 2 X X H = + 2 m | x a − x b | a h a,b i e 2 m → 0 X H = P LLL | x a − x b | a,b n= 1 B → ∞ m Projection to n=0 lowest Landau level

Composite fermion • Halperin-Lee-Read 1993: low-energy quasiparticle of half-filled Landau level: a “composite fermion” • “attaching 2 flux quanta to an electrons” • End result: an effective field theory of the composite fermion
HLR field theory L = i † ( @ 0 − iA 0 + ia 0 ) − 1 2 m | ( @ i − iA i + ia i ) | 2 + 1 1 4 ⇡ ✏ µ νλ a µ @ ν a λ 2 b = r ⇥ a = 2 ⇥ 2 πψ † ψ “flux attachment” mean field: B e ff = B − b = B − 4 π n ν = 1 B e ff = 0 2 In half filled Landau level CFs form a Fermi surface away from half filling: CFs in a magnetic field
Particle-hole symmetr • One problem with HLR theory: lack of particle- hole symmetry • Solving this problem: the Dirac composite fermion theory • Modification to the HLR theory: CF has a Berry phase of π around the Fermi disk • Composite fermion: particle-vortex dual of the electron
