Hydrodynamics of Euler incompressible fluid and the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect
arXiv:1309.5992 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.88.241305
Abstract
We show that the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect can be phenomenologically described as a special flow of a quantum incompressible Euler liquid. This flow consists of a large number of vortices of the same chirality. In this approach each vortex is identified with an electron while the fluid is neutral. We show that the Laughlin wave function emerges as a stationary flow of the system of vortices in quantum fluid dynamics. Subtle features of FQHE such as effects of Lorentz shear stress, the spectral function, the Hall current in a modulated electric fields, etc., naturally follow from the hydrodynamics approach. In the paper we develop the hydrodynamics of the vortex liquid, and able consistently quantize it. As a demonstration of the efficiency of the hydrodynamics we discuss some new results for FQHE in a non-uniform magnetic field and a curved space.
