Popis: We study frustration-free Hamiltonians of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states from the point of view of the matrix product state (MPS) representation of their ground and excited states. There is a wealth of solvable models relating to FQH physics, which, however, is mostly derived and analyzed from the vantage point of first-quantized "analytic clustering properties". In contrast, one obtains long-ranged frustration-free lattice models when these Hamiltonians are studied in an orbital basis, which is the natural basis for the MPS representation of FQH states. The connection between MPS-like states and frustration-free parent Hamiltonians is the central guiding principle in the construction of solvable lattice models, but thus far, only for short-range Hamiltonians and MPSs of finite bond dimension. The situation in the FQH context is fundamentally different. Here we expose the direct link between the infinite-bond-dimension MPS structure of Laughlin-conformal field theory (CFT) states and their parent Hamiltonians. While focusing on the Laughlin state, generalizations to other CFT-MPSs will become transparent.
