Coordinate Representation of the One-Spinon One-Holon Wavefunction and Spinon-Holon Interaction

By deriving and studying the coordinate representation for the one-spinon one-holon wavefunction we show that spinons and holons in the supersymmetric $t - J$ model with $1/r^2$ interaction attract each other. The interaction causes a probability enhancement in the one-spinon one-holon wavefunction at short separation between the particles. We express the hole spectral function for a finite lattice in terms of the probability enhancement, given by the one-spinon one-holon wavefunction at zero separation. In the thermodynamic limit, the spinon-holon attraction turns into the square-root divergence in the hole spectral function.Comment: 20 pages, 3 .eps figure

From Fractional Chern Insulators to a Fractional Quantum Spin Hall Effect

We investigate the algebraic structure of flat energy bands a partial filling of which may give rise to a fractional quantum anomalous Hall effect (or a fractional Chern insulator) and a fractional quantum spin Hall effect. Both effects arise in the case of a sufficiently flat energy band as well as a roughly flat and homogeneous Berry curvature, such that the global Chern number, which is a topological invariant, may be associated with a local non-commutative geometry. This geometry is similar to the more familiar situation of the fractional quantum Hall effect in two-dimensional electron systems in a strong magnetic field.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure; published version with labels in Figs. 2 and 3 correcte

Nonabelian gauge field and dual description of fuzzy sphere

In matrix models, higher dimensional D-branes are obtained by imposing a noncommutative relation to coordinates of lower dimensional D-branes. On the other hand, a dual description of this noncommutative space is provided by higher dimensional D-branes with gauge fields. Fuzzy spheres can appear as a configuration of lower dimensional D-branes in a constant R-R field strength background. In this paper, we consider a dual description of higher dimensional fuzzy spheres by introducing nonabelian gauge fields on higher dimensional spherical D-branes. By using the Born-Infeld action, we show that a fuzzy $2k$-sphere and spherical D$2k$-branes with a nonabelian gauge field whose Chern character is nontrivial are the same objects when $n$ is large. We discuss a relationship between the noncommutative geometry and nonabelian gauge fields. Nonabelian gauge fields are represented by noncommutative matrices including the coordinate dependence. A similarity to the quantum Hall system is also studied.Comment: 28 page

Expanded Vandermonde powers and sum rules for the two-dimensional one-component plasma

The two-dimensional one-component plasma (2dOCP) is a system of $N$ mobile particles of the same charge $q$ on a surface with a neutralising background. The Boltzmann factor of the 2dOCP at temperature $T$ can be expressed as a Vandermonde determinant to the power $\Gamma=q^{2}/(k_B T)$. Recent advances in the theory of symmetric and anti-symmetric Jack polymonials provide an efficient way to expand this power of the Vandermonde in their monomial basis, allowing the computation of several thermodynamic and structural properties of the 2dOCP for $N$ values up to 14 and $\Gamma$ equal to 4, 6 and 8. In this work, we explore two applications of this formalism to study the moments of the pair correlation function of the 2dOCP on a sphere, and the distribution of radial linear statistics of the 2dOCP in the plane

Coordinate Representation of the Two-Spinon wavefunction and Spinon Interaction

By deriving and studying the coordinate representation for the two-spinon wavefunction, we show that spinon excitations in the Haldane-Shastry model interact. The interaction is given by a short-range attraction and causes a resonant enhancement in the two-spinon wavefunction at short separations between the spinons. We express the spin susceptibility for a finite lattice in terms of the resonant enhancement, given by the two-spinon wavefunction at zero separation. In the thermodynamic limit, the spinon attraction turns into the square-root divergence in the dynamical spin susceptibility.Comment: 19 pages, 5 .eps figure

Spin-Hall effect with quantum group symmetry

We construct a model of spin-Hall effect on a noncommutative 4 sphere with isospin degrees of freedom (coming from a noncommutative instanton) and invariance under a quantum orthogonal group. The corresponding representation theory allows to explicitly diagonalize the Hamiltonian and construct the ground state; there are both integer and fractional excitations. Similar models exist on higher dimensional noncommutative spheres and noncommutative projective spaces.Comment: v2: 14 pages, latex. Several changes and additional material; two extra sections added.

Quantum Mechanics Model on K\"ahler conifold

We propose an exactly-solvable model of the quantum oscillator on the class of K\"ahler spaces (with conic singularities), connected with two-dimensional complex projective spaces. Its energy spectrum is nondegenerate in the orbital quantum number, when the space has non-constant curvature. We reduce the model to a three-dimensional system interacting with the Dirac monopole. Owing to noncommutativity of the reduction and quantization procedures, the Hamiltonian of the reduced system gets non-trivial quantum corrections. We transform the reduced system into a MIC-Kepler-like one and find that quantum corrections arise only in its energy and coupling constant. We present the exact spectrum of the generalized MIC-Kepler system. The one-(complex) dimensional analog of the suggested model is formulated on the Riemann surface over the complex projective plane and could be interpreted as a system with fractional spin.Comment: 5 pages, RevTeX format, some misprints heve been correcte

Electronic Structure of a Hydrogenic Acceptor Impurity in Semiconductor Nano-structures

The electronic structure and binding energy of a hydrogenic acceptor impurity in 2, 1, and 0-dimensional semiconductor nano-structures (i.e. quantum well (QW), quantum well wire (QWW), and quantum dot (QD)) are studied in the framework of effective-mass envelope-function theory. The results show that (1) the energy levels monotonically decrease as the quantum confinement sizes increase; (2) the impurity energy levels decrease more slowly for QWWs and QDs as their sizes increase than for QWs; (3) the changes of the acceptor binding energies are very complex as the quantum confinement size increases; (4) the binding energies monotonically decrease as the acceptor moves away from the nano-structures’ center; (5) as the symmetry decreases, the degeneracy is lifted, and the first binding energy level in the QD splits into two branches. Our calculated results are useful for the application of semiconductor nano-structures in electronic and photoelectric devices

Super D-Helix

We study `Myers effect' for a bunch of $D1$-branes with $IIB$ superstrings moving in one direction along the branes. We show that the `blown-up' configuration is the helical $D1$-brane, which is self-supported from collapse by the axial momentum flow. The tilting angle of the helix is determined by the number of $D1$-branes. The radius of the helix is stabilized to a certain value depending on the number of $D1$-branes and the momentum carried by $IIB$ superstrings. This is actually T-dual version of the supertube recently found as the `blown-up' configuration of a bunch of $IIA$ superstrings carrying $D0$-brane charge. It is found that the helical $D1$ configuration preserves one quarter of the supersymmetry of $IIB$ vacuum.Comment: 13 pages using REVTeX macro, V.3: added references, corrected typos in the Killing spinor relations, and added discussions on D1/D
