Abstract:
The electron distribution over Landau levels is calculated in the regime of the quantum Hall effect at strong Coulomb interaction. For this purpose, a modified scheme of exact diagonalization with a significantly reduced basis of many-particle configurations has been developed, which makes it possible to adequately take into account the mixing of states in several Landau levels. The behavior of the electron distribution function over Landau levels is studied as a function of the filling factor and the Wigner–Seitz radius $r_s$. It is shown that the Landau quantization at a fixed electron density significantly suppresses the smearing of the electron distribution function as compared to the case of zero magnetic field. For example, for $r_s<1$ and low filling factors, the quasiparticle contribution to the Migdal jump $1-Z$ in the distribution function is an approximately linear function of $\nu$ and a quadratic function of $r_s$. Simultaneously, as $\nu$ decreases, the tails of the distribution function become longer. The mechanism of rearrangement of the distribution function in the regime of the quantum Hall effect is described in terms of the generation of magnetoplasmon fluctuations involved in the structure of the ground state of the system.
