Abstract

We present a dual two dimensional model for the Quantum Hall Fluid depending on two parameters and show that this model has topologically non-trivial vacua which are infrared stable fixed points of the Renormalization Group. The model has a discrete (modular) symmetry which reproduces the fenomenological law of corresponding states and allows for an unified description of the critical points corresponding to Hall plateaus in terms of a 2 dimensional Conformal Field Theory.
