We study multifractal spectra of critical wave functions at the integer quantum Hall plateau
transition using the Chalker-Coddington network model. Our numerical results provide
important new constraints which any critical theory for the transition will have to satisfy. We
find a nonparabolic multifractal spectrum and determine the ratio of boundary to bulk
multifractal exponents. Our results rule out an exactly parabolic spectrum that has been the
centerpiece in a number of proposals for critical field theories of the transition. In addition …
We study multifractal spectra of critical wave functions at the integer quantum Hall plateau transition using the Chalker-Coddington network model. Our numerical results provide important new constraints which any critical theory for the transition will have to satisfy. We find a nonparabolic multifractal spectrum and determine the ratio of boundary to bulk multifractal exponents. Our results rule out an exactly parabolic spectrum that has been the centerpiece in a number of proposals for critical field theories of the transition. In addition, we demonstrate analytically exact parabolicity of the related boundary spectra in the two-dimensional chiral orthogonal “Gade-Wegner” symmetry class.
