We put forward possible wave functions for quantum Hall states in the lowest Landau level. These were deduced from the topological approach based on the relation between braid groups and the quantum statistics, as well as the commensurability condition unavoidable for collective states in magnetic fields. In this paper we demonstrate that the [Formula: see text]-field imposes restrictions on braid trajectories (i.e. elements of the full braid group). This results in the appearance of cyclotron subgroups, instead of the full braid group, for certain filling factors. The fermion representation of cyclotron subgroups defines transformations of wave functions in the quantum Hall regime. Hence, it sets quantum statistics (transformations of [Formula: see text] under exchanges of arguments), which is unavoidable for collective states (in compliance with the framework of Feynman's path integrals). Finally, the topological approach allows to define the hierarchy of fillings in the lowest Landau level, which agree with the hierarchy observed in quantum Hall devices (i.e. in transport measurements). The symmetry of a many-body wave function (i.e. quantum statistics) is always determined by a 1D unitary representation of the system's braid group. Using this topologically-originated property, we demonstrate that many-body wave functions for selected fillings of the lowest Landau level may not be purely antisymmetric. Only systems composed of fermions are investigated. Additionally, we present Monte Carlo calculations in a disc geometry, which remain in a nice agreement with predictions of exact diagonalizations (expected values of potential energy and pair distribution functions are presented). No boundary potential is assumed.
