For $r=2$, these states are identical to the $Z_k$ Read-Rezayi parafermions, whereas for $r>2$ they represent new FQH states. The $r=k+1$ states, multiplied by a Vandermonde determinant, are a non-Abelian alternative construction of states at fermionic filling $2/5, 3/7, 4/9...$. We obtain the thermal Hall coefficient, the quantum dimensions, the electron scaling exponent, and show that the non-Abelian quasihole has a well-defined propagator falling off with the distance. The clustering properties of the Jack polynomials, provide a strong indication that the states with $r>2$ can be obtained as correlators of fields of \\emph{non-unitary} conformal field theories, but the CFT-FQH connection fails when invoked to compute physical properties such as thermal Hall coefficient or, more importantly, the quasihole propagator. The quasihole wavefuntion, when written as a coherent state representation of Jack polynomials, has an identical structure for \\emph{all} non-Abelian states at filling $\\nu=\\frac{k}{r}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-03-19T20:37:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.43.-f", "11.25.Hf" ], "keywords": [ "non-abelian fractional quantum hall states", "properties", "thermal hall coefficient", "jack polynomials", "coherent state representation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2008, "month": "Dec", "volume": 101, "number": 24, "pages": 246806 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008PhRvL.101x6806B" } } }
