We show that acoustic crystalline wave gives rise to an effect similar to that of a gravitational wave to an electron gas. Applying this idea to a two-dimensional electron gas in the fractional quantum Hall regime, this allows for experimental study of its intra-Landau level dynamical response in the long-wave length limit. To study such response we generalize Haldane's geometrical description of fractional quantum Hall states to situations where the external metric is time-dependent. We show that such time-dependent metric (generated by acoustic wave) couples to collective modes of the system, including a quadrapolar mode at long wave length, and magneto-roton at finite wave length. Energies of these modes can be revealed in spectroscopic measurements. controlled by strain-induced Fermi velocity anisotropy. We argue that such geometrical probe provides a potentially highly useful alternative probe of quantum Hall liquids, in addition to the usual electromagnetic response. Fractional quantum Hall (FQH) liquid is the prototype topological state of matter. Haldane[1] pointed out recently that description of FQH liquids in terms of topological quantum field theories, while capturing the universal and topological aspect of the physics, is incomplete in the sense that an internal geometrical degree of freedom responsible for the intra-Landau level dynamics of the system is not included. This geometrical degree of freedom, or internal metric, couples to anisotropy in the interaction between electrons[2-4] or the electron band structure [5], and its expectation value is determined by energetics of the system. In a recent work [6] we showed that this internal metric parameter manifests itself as anisotropy of composite fermion Fermi surface, which is measurable. Our quantitative result compares favorably with recent experiments, in which electron mass anisotropy is induced and controlled by an in-plane magnetic field [7][8][9]. This demonstrates the observability of this internal geometry. It has also been argued [1,[10][11][12] that this internal metric may be viewed as a dynamical degree of freedom, whose long-wave length dynamics corresponds to the collective excitations of the system that can be viewed as "gravitons" [13]. In a parallel stream of works, much effort has been devoted to studying FQH liquids in a curved background space [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23], following earlier seminal work by Wen and Zee [24].In the existing theoretical studies [2-6, 25, 26], the background geometry (or metric) provided by electronelectron interaction and/or band structure is static. The main purpose of the present work is to generalize this to the case where the background metric is time-dependent, and show that dynamics of the metric couples to the intra-Landau level collective modes of the FQH liquid. In particular, we show that such time-dependent metric can be generated by acoustic waves, that play a role very similar to gravitational wave in this context. Such gravitational wave naturally couples to graviton an...
