Abstract

Using an algebra of second-quantized operators, we develop local two-body parent Hamiltonians for all unprojected Jain states at filling factor n/(2np+1), with integer n and (half-)integer p. We rigorously establish that these states are uniquely stabilized and that zero mode counting reproduces mode counting in the associated edge conformal field theory. We further establish the organizing "entangled Pauli principle" behind the resulting zero mode paradigm and unveil an emergent SU(n) symmetry characteristic of the fixed point physics of the Jain quantum Hall fluid.
