A comparison of FQHE quasi-electron trial wave functions on the disk
Abstract
The various proposals for FQHE quasi-electron trial wave functions are reconsidered. In a short-range model for the electronic interaction, the energy expectation values of four different trial wave functions are calculated at filling factor 13 for up to ten electrons in the disk geometry. Jain's trial wave function displays the lowest energy expectation value.
