Multifractality of wavefunctions at the quantum Hall transition revisited

We investigate numerically the statistics of wavefunction amplitudes $\psi({\bf r})$ at the integer quantum Hall transition. It is demonstrated that in the limit of a large system size the distribution function of $|\psi|^2$ is log-normal, so that the multifractal spectrum $f(\alpha)$ is exactly parabolic. Our findings lend strong support to a recent conjecture for a critical theory of the quantum Hall transition.
