The birth of “i“ : not from • Cardano formula for the cubic equation. discriminant: • Start with real coefficients, and end up with three real roots, but no way to avoid “i”. 4
The beauty of “complex” • Gauss plane: 2 D rotation (angular momentum) • Euler formula: (U(1) phase: optics, QM) • Complex analyticity: (2 D lowest Landau level) • Algebra fundamental theorem; Riemann hypothesis – distributions of prime numbers, etc. • Quan Mech: “i” appears for the first time in a wave equation.

Advantages of Landau levels (2 D) • Simple, explicit and elegant. • Complex analyticity selection of non-trivial WFs. 1. The 2 D ordinary QM WF belongs to real analysis 2. Cauchy-Riemann condition complex analyticity (chirality). 3. Chirality is physically imposed by the B-field. • Analytic properties facilitate the construction of Laughlin WF.

Our recipe 1. 3 D harmonic wavefunctions. 2. Selection criterion: quaternionic analyticity (physically imposed by SO coupling). Landau-like gauge: spatial separation of 2 D Dirac modes with opposite helicites. Generalizable to higher dimensions.

3 D LL Hamiltonian of Dirac Fermions • This Lagrangian of non-minimal Pauli coupling. • A related Hamiltonian was studied before under the name of Dirac oscillator, but its connection to LL and topological properties was noticed. Benitez, et al, PRL, 64, 1643 (1990) 28

A square root problem: • The square of helicity eigenstates. gives two copies of with opposite • LL solutions: dispersionless with respect to j. Eigen-states constructed based on non-relativistic LLs. The zeroth LL: 30
Zeroth LLs as half-fermion modes • The LL spectra are symmetric with respect to zero energy, thus each state of the zeroth LL contributes ½- fermion charge depending on the zeroth LL is filled or empty. • For the 2 D case, the vacuum charge density is known as parity anomaly. , G. Semenoff, Phys. Rev. Lett. , 53, 2449 (1984). • For our 3 D case, the vacuum charge density is plus or minus of the half of the particle density of the nonrelativistic LLLs. E • What kind of anomaly? 31
Helical surface mode of 3 D Dirac LL • The mass of the vacuum outside • This is the square root problem of the open boundary problem of 3 D nonrelativistic LLs. R E • Each surface mode for n>0 of the non -relativistic case splits a pair surface modes for the Dirac case. • The surface mode of Dirac zeroth-LL of is singled out. Whether it is upturn or downturn depends on the sign of the vacuum mass. 32
Conclusions • We hope the quaternionic analyticity can facilitate the construction of 3 D Laughlin state. • The non-relativistic N-dimensional LL problem is a Ndimensional harmonic oscillator + spin-orbit coupling. • The relativistic version is a square-root problem corresponding to Dirac equation with non-minimal coupling. • Open questions: interaction effects; experimental realizations; characterization of topo-properties with harmonic potentials 33
