Abstract
We study Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory in 2 noncommutative spatial dimensions and 1 temporal dimension. We consider a finite matrix model obtained by adding a linear boundary field which takes into account boundary fluctuations. The pure Chern-Simons has been previously shown to be equivalent to the Laughlin description of the quantum Hall effect. With the addition of the Maxwell term, we find that there exists a rich spectrum of excitations including solitons with nontrivial "magnetic flux" and quasi-holes with nontrivial "charges", which we describe in this article. The magnetic flux corresponds to vorticity in the fluid fluctuations while the charges correspond to sources of fluid fluctuations. We find that the quasi-hole solutions exhibit a gap in the spectrum of allowed charge.
