摘要
The two-dimensional quantum ferromagnet filled with a liquid of skyrmions is studied theoretically in the context of the quantum Hall effect near electronic filling factor nu = 1. A crossover between the classical ferromagnetic phase at nu = 1 and a classical paramagnetic phase at nu not equal 1 is obtained, which is consistent with recent Knight-shift measurements. A new collective mode associated with the skyrmion liquid that is of the cyclotron type is also identified.
