Abstract
Regarding electrons as anyons of index αs pierced with -(m+αs) flux quanta per particle, and letting the mean field of these fluxes cancel the external magnetic field B, we obtain the filling factor ν=1/(m+αs), where m must be odd. Demanding the resulting system of anyons to exhibit "anyon supercanductivity", we obtain αs=±(1-q/n) where q is odd, and n>q is relatively prime to q. For q=1 we recover a formula due to Jain, and resolve the mystery why, for a state with ν=n/(2pn±1)<1 he requires use of the statistical correlation of n filled Landau levels. For q=3,5,⋯, we obtain the fractions 4/11, 4/13, 5/13, etc., which are missing from Jain's list. Thus this non-heirarchical approach to the non-1/m fractional quantum Hall effect has the strengths of Jain's composite-fermion approach, but not its (potential) weaknesses.
