2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/211862A new class of analytic wave functions is derived for two dimensional N-electron (2 <= N < infinity) systems in high magnetic fields. These functions are constructed through breaking (at the Hartree-Fock level) and subsequent restoration (via post-Hartree-Fock methods) of the circular symmetry. They are suitable for describing long-range Coulomb correlations, while the Laughlin and composite-fermion functions describe Jastrow correlations associated with a short-range repulsion. Underlying our approach is a collectively-rotating-electron-molecule picture, yielding for all N an oscillatory radial electron density.Published version. Latex/Revtex, 5 pages with 1 EPS figure.
