Anyons: Minimal and Extended Formulations

High Energy Physics - Theory 2012-03-15 v2

Abstract

The minimal (reduced) and extended canonical formulations for (2+1)-dimensional fractional spin particles are considered. We investigate the relationship between them, clearing up the meaning of the coordinates for such particles, and analyse the related question of correlation between spin and momentum. The classical lagrangian corresponding to the extended canonical formulation is constructed, and its gauge symmetries are identified.
