Exclusion statistics for non-abelian quantum Hall states

Abstract

We determine the exclusion statistics properties of the fundamental edge quasi-particles over a specific ν=\half\nu=\half non-abelian quantum Hall state known as the pfaffian. The fundamental excitations are the edge electrons of charge e-e and the edge quasi-holes of charge +e4+{e \over 4}. We explicitly determine thermodynamic distribution functions and establish a duality which generalizes the duality for fractional exclusion statistics in the sense of Haldane.
