Title |
General theory for quantum statistics in two dimensions |
Date |
1984-06 |
Description |
Because of complicated topology of the configuration space for indistinguishable particles in two dimensions, Feynman's path-integral formulation allows exotic statistics. All possible quantum statistics in two-space are characterized by an angle parameter 9 which interpolates between bosons and fermions. The current formalisms in terms of topological action of multivalued wave functions can be derived in a model-independent way. |
