Abstract
I point out a hierarchy connection between the even-denominator filling-fraction quantum Hall effect and the spin-singlet v=2(2q+1) Halperin states. Hierarchical construction produces spin-singlet states at all (even and odd) primary filling fractions as well as spin-singlet and partially polarized ones at secondary filling fractions. The possible relation of some of these states to recently proposed ones, such as the hollow-core model, is briefly discussed.
