Abstract
We propose an exact model of anyon ground states including higher Landau levels, and use it to obtain fractionally quantized Hall states at filling fractions with odd, from integer Hall states at through adiabatic localization of magnetic flux. For appropriately chosen two-body potential interactions, the energy gap remains intact during the process, as we explicitly show for the series of states. The construction hence provides a major step towards establishing the existence of incompressible states at these fillings.
