Abstract

The chiral Tomonaga-Luttinger model is obtained as the low-energy limit of the Chern-Simons theory for fractional quantum Hall effect systems with v = 1/∅ for odd ∅. In particular, we recover the Kac-Moody algebra for the creation and annihilation operators of the edge density waves and the bosonization formula for the electronic operator at the edge.
