In previous publications [\textit{R. Ray} and \textit{B. Sakita}, Ann. Phys. 230, No. 1, 131-144 (1994) and \textit{B. Sakita}, Phys. Lett. B 315, No. 1-2, 124-128 (1993), abbreviated by [1], [2]] we discussed the electromagnetic interaction of electrons in the lowest Landau level (LLL). In [1] we derived the effective electromagnetic interaction Hamiltonian of LLL wave fields by integrating out the higher Landau level components. We noticed in this paper that the gauge invariance of the theory is maintained through \(W_\infty\) gauge transformations. Based on this, in [2] we first constructed a \(W_\infty\) gauge theory by introducing a \(W_\infty\) gauge potential \({\mathcal A}\) such that its \(W_\infty\) gauge transformations cancel against the gauge transformations of the LLL electron field. We then showed that the electromagnetic interactions of electrons in the LLL are obtained through a nonlinear realization of \({\mathcal A}\) in terms of the electromagnetic gauge potential \(A_\mu\). In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. B 52, No. 4, 2747-2753 (1995)], \textit{K. Shizuya} discussed various \(W_\infty\) transformations in planar electrodynamics and showed, among other things, that the effective Hamiltonian of LLL electrodynamics is gauge invariant through the \(W_\infty\) gauge transformations. In this written report I elaborate on Shizuya's discussion and justify the procedure of [2]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0884.00037].
