Noncommuting Coordinates in the Landau problem

نویسنده

  • Gabrielle Magro
چکیده

Basic ideas about noncommuting coordinates are summarized, and then coordinate noncommutativity, as it arises in the Landau problem, is investigated. I review a quantum solution to the Landau problem, and evaluate the coordinate commutator in a truncated state space of Landau levels. Restriction to the lowest Landau level reproduces the well known commutator of planar coordinates. Inclusion of a finite number of Landau levels yields a matrix generalization.

A (p, q)-deformed Landau problem in a spherical harmonic well: spectrum and noncommuting coordinates

A (p, q)-deformation of the Landau problem in a spherically symmetric harmonic potential is considered. The quantum spectrum as well as space noncommutativity are established, whether for the full Landau problem or its quantum Hall projections. The well known noncommutative geometry in each Landau level is recovered in the appropriate limit. PACS numbers: 02.40.Gh, 02.20.-a, 02.20.Uw Submitted ...

The noncommutative harmonic oscillator in more than one dimensions

The noncommutative harmonic oscillator in arbitrary dimension is examined. It is shown that the ⋆-genvalue problem can be decomposed into separate harmonic oscillator equations for each dimension. The noncommutative plane is investigated in greater detail. The constraints for rotationally symmetric solutions and the corresponding twodimensional harmonic oscillator are solved. The angular moment...

Nonrelativistic anyons in external electromagnetic field

The first-order, infinite-component field equations we proposed before for non-relativistic anyons (identified with particles in the plane with noncommuting coordinates) are generalized to accommodate arbitrary background electromagnetic fields. Consistent coupling of the underlying classical system to arbitrary fields is introduced; at a critical value of the magnetic field, the particle follo...
