Abstract

We discuss the status of the theory of localisation in two dimensions in the presence of a strong perpendicular magnetic field. The model potentials which have been used are described. The importance of the various length scales in the problem is pointed out. A summary of the currently available definitions of localisation is given. The results for the localisation length, the inverse participation number of the states, and their shape, obtained so far are summarised.
