Finite-wave-vector electromagnetic response of fractional quantized Hall states
Abstract
A fractional quantized Hall state with filling fraction ν=p/(2mp+1) can be modeled as an integer quantized Hall state of transformed fermions, interacting with a Chern-Simons field. The electromagnetic response function for these states at arbitrary frequency and wave vector can be calculated using a semiclassical approximation or the random-phase approximation. However, such calculations do not properly take into account the large effective-mass renormalization which is present in the Chern-Simons theory. We show how the mass renormalization can be incorporated in a calculation of the response function within a Landau-Fermi-liquid theory approach such that Kohn's theorem and the f-sum rules are properly satisfied. We present results of such calculations.
