FOUR-PARTICLE ANYON EXCITON: BOSON APPROXIMATION

A theory of anyon excitons consisting of a valence hole and three quasielectrons with electric charges –e/3 is presented. A full symmetry classification of the k = 0 states is given, where k is the exciton momentum. The energy levels of these states are expressed by quadratures of confluent hypergeometric functions. It is shown that the angular momentum L of the exciton ground state depends on the distance between the electron and hole confinement planes and takes the values L = 3n, where n is an integer. With increasing k the electron density shows a spectacular splitting on bundles. At first a single anyon splits off of the two-anyon core, and finally all anyons become separated.
