per plaquette is close to a rational fraction. Within this approximation, certain eigenstates of the system are shown to be multi-component wavefunctions that connect smoothly to the Landau levels of the continuum. The perturbative corrections to these are higher Landau level contributions that break rotational invariance and allow the perturbed states to adopt the symmetry of the lattice. In the presence of interactions, this approach allows for the calculation of generalised Haldane pseudopotentials, and in turn, the many-body properties of the system. The method is suciently general that it can apply to a wide variety of lattices, interactions, and magnetic eld strengths.
