Popis: The exact n-body distribution functions are calculated for a two-dimensional, non-interacting quantum electron gas in an external magnetic field for any temperature and density. At low tempertures and filled lowest Landau level (LLL), these functions are identical to the exact distribution functions obtained by Jancovici [1981, Phys. Rev. Lett., 46, 386] for the classical two-dimensional one-component plasma (2DOCP) at the special plasma parameter Γ = 2, thus establishing that the 2DOCP provides an exact classical Boltzmann factor which describes the ideal LLL quantum state associated with the integral quantum Hall effect.
