Some time ago we have introduced a route to provide confinement in the sense that particle excitations would appear from condensates of fields that do not have physical asymptotic states. We envisaged this mechanism in an asymmetric vacuum…
A convenient formalism is developed to treat classical dynamical systems involving $(p=2)$ parafermionic and parabosonic dynamical variables. This is achieved via the introduction of a parabracket which summarizes the paracommutation…
