Abstract
In this Letter we present an exact calculation of the effective potential which appears on a helicoidal strip. This potential leads to the appearance of localized states at a distance ξ 0 from the central axis. The twist ω of the strip plays the role of a magnetic field and is responsible for the appearance of these localized states and an effective transverse electric field thus this is reminiscent of the quantum Hall effect. At very low temperatures the twisted configuration of the strip may be stabilized by the electronic states.
