    Microscopic derivation of Dirac composite fermion theory: Aspects of noncommutativity and pairing instabilities
    Gočanin, Dragoljub; Predin, Sonja; Dimitrijević Ćirić, Marija; Radovanović, Voja; Milovanović, Milica
    Building on previous work [N. Read, Phys. Rev. B 58, 16262 (1998); Z. Dong and T. Senthil, Phys. Rev. B 102, 205126 (2020)] on the system of bosons at filling factor nu = 1, we derive the Dirac composite fermion theory for a half-filled Landau level from first principles and apply the Hartree-Fock approach in a preferred representation. On the basis of the microscopic formulation, in the long-wavelength limit, we propose a noncommutative field-theoretical description, which in a commutative limit reproduces the Son's theory, with additional terms that may be expected on physical grounds. The microscopic representation of the problem is also used to discuss pairing instabilities of composite fermions. We find that a presence of a particle-hole symmetry breaking leads to a weak (BCS) coupling p-wave pairing in the lowest Landau level, and strong coupling p-wave pairing in the second Landau level that occurs in a band with nearly flat dispersion, a third power function of momentum.

The microscopic representation of the problem is also used to discuss pairing instabilities of composite fermions. We find that a presence of a particle-hole symmetry breaking leads to a weak (BCS) coupling -wave pairing in the lowest Landau level, and strong coupling -wave pairing in the second Landau level that occurs in a band with nearly flat dispersion, a third power function of momentum.
