W-infinity Field Theories for the Edge Excitations in the Quantum Hall Effect
Andrea Cappelli, Carlo A. Trugenberger, Guillermo R. Zemba
We briefly review these low-energy effective theories for the quantum Hall effect, with emphasis and language familiar to field theorists. Two models have been proposed for describ…

Modular Invariant Partition Functions in the Quantum Hall Effect
Andrea Cappelli, Guillermo R. Zemba
We study the partition function for the low-energy edge excitations of the incompressible electron fluid. On an annular geometry, these excitations have opposite chiralities on the…
