abstract

We derive an effective topological field theory model of the four dimensional quantum Hall liquid state recently constructed by Zhang and Hu. Using a generalization of the flux attachment transformation, the effective field theory can be formulated as a U(1) Chern-Simons theory over the total configuration space $CP_3$, or as a SU(2) Chern-Simons theory over $S^4$. The new quantum Hall liquid supports various types of topological excitations, including the 0-brane (particles), the 2-brane (membranes) and the 4-brane. There is a topological phase interaction among the membranes which generalizes the concept of fractional statistics.

    The paper derives enhanced BEC and a Uemura-like linear-in-T superfluid density on a fuzzy sphere, but the enhancement is a finite-mode artifact and the linear-T claim rests on an incorrect large-R expansion.
