摘要
It is shown that the Kubo equation for the Hall conductance can be expressed as an integral which implies quantization of the Hall conductance. The integral can be interpreted as the first Chern class of a U(1) principal fiber bundle on a two-dimensional torus. This accounts for the conductance given as an integer multiple of e(2)/h. The formalism can be extended to deduce the fractional conductivity as well.
