24. By particle-hole symmetry the ground state in the strong-magnetic-field limit will also be a Wigner crystal state through most of the filling factor interval 1.73<ν<2. Interesting broken translational symmetry states (Skyrme crystals), whose detailed properties are quite sensitive to the g factor, also occur for ν near 1: L. Brey, H.A. Fertig, R. Cǒté and A.H. MacDonald, Phys. Rev. Lett. 75, 2562 (1995). Our attention here is limited to the Wigner crystal case.
