Abstract

At filling factor ν=1/m, m odd integer, I present variational ground-state and excited-state wave functions, of two-dimensional electron system with homogeneous ion background, that show the condensation into a liquid-crystal state. For m=1, 3, 5, the ground-state energy per electron is substantially lower than the Laughlin one, for uniform liquid state.
