摘要
In the light of the decomposition of the SU（2） gauge potential for I = 1/2, we obtain the SU（2） Chern-Simons current over S4, i.e. the vortex current in the effective field for the four-dimensional quantum Hall effect. Similar to the vortex excitations in the two-dimensional quantum Hall effect （2D FQH） which are generated from the zero points of the complex scalar field, in the 4D FQH, we show that the SU（2） Chern-Simons vortices are generated from the zero points of the two-component wave functions ψ, and their topological charges are quantized in terms of the Hopf indices and Brouwer degrees of Ф-mapping under the condition that the zero points of field ψ are regular points.
