Single vortex creation and annihilation operators are defined and wavefunctions for these states are explicitly constructed. A hamitonian for these states is then proposed.25 pages, written in RevTeX, submitted to Physical Review BCondensed MatterQuantum PhysicsEigenstates of the Vorticity Operator: The Creation and Annihilation of Vortex States in Two Dimensionstext
