In the thin cylinder regime Haldane’s pseudo-potential corresponding to one-third filling results in a frustration-free fermionic lattice Hamiltonian which is dipole-conserving with an added electrostatic interaction. Its zero-energy eigenspace is exponentially large. Nevertheless, it admits a a rather simple, full description in terms of a certain class of fragmented matrix-product states, which I will introduce and discuss in this talk. 

As I will sketch, the complete classification of zero-energy states can be taken as a basis for a proof of a uniform spectral gap in the excitation spectrum of these Hamiltonians. The latter is vital for the theoretical explanation of the incompressibility of the FQH system at maximal filling.
