![]() | Wu, Yong-Shi | Gauge invariance of fractionally charged quasiparticles and hidden topological Zn symmetry | Using the braid-group formalism we study the consequences of gauge invariance for fractionally charged anyonic quasiparticles in a two-dimensional multiply connected system. It is shown that gauge invariance requires multicomponent wave functions, and leads to the emergence of a hidden topological... | Gauge invariance; Topological Zn symmetry; Braid-group representation | 1991-02 |
