By factorization of the Hamiltonian describing the quantum mechanics of the continuous q-Hermite polynomial, the creation and annihilation operators of the q-oscillator are obtained. They satisfy a q-oscillator algebra as a consequence of…
The main notions of the quantum groups: coproduct, action and coaction, representation and corepresentation are discussed using simplest examples: $GL_q(2)$, $sl_q(2)$, $q$-oscillator algebra ${\cal A}(q)$, and reflection equation algebra.…
We discuss how to construct models of interacting anyons by generalizing quantum spin Hamiltonians to anyonic degrees of freedom. The simplest interactions energetically favor pairs of anyons to fuse into the trivial ("identity") channel,…
Fractional statistics give rise to quantum behaviors that differ fundamentally from those of bosons and fermions. While two-dimensional anyons play a major role in strongly correlated systems and topological quantum computing, the nature of…
A universal quantum computer can be constructed using abelian anyons. Two qubit quantum logic gates such as controlled-NOT operations are performed using topological effects. Single-anyon operations such as hopping from site to site on a…
We study the static properties of hadrons, assuming quantum group symmetry. We calculate the magnetic moment, axial form factor and A-symmetry, using $SU_q(2)$ and $SU_q(3)$ quantum groups. The results are fitted with experimental data,…
We show that bosonic fields may present anyonic behavior when interacting with a fermion in a Jaynes-Cummings-like model. The proposal is accomplished via the interaction of a two-level system with two quantized modes of a harmonic…
It is shown that $U(1)$--Hamiltonian reduction of a four--dimensional isotropic quantum oscillator results in a bound system of two spinless Schwinger's dyons. Its wavefunctions and spectrum are constructed.
A twistor model is proposed for the free relativistic anyon. The Hamiltonian reduction of this model by the action of the spin generator leads to the minimal covariant model; whereas that by the action of spin and mass generators, to the…
Using the method of implementable one-particle Bogoliubov transformations it is possible to explicitly define a local covariant net of quantum fields on the (universal covering of the) circle $S_1$ with braid group statistics. These Anyon…
Generalized Fourier transformation between the position and the momentum representation of a quantum state is constructed in a coordinate independent way. The only ingredient of this construction is the symplectic (canonical) geometry of…
The idea that a system obeying interpolating statistics can be described by a deformed oscillator algebra has been an outstanding issue. This original concept introduced long ago by Greenberg is the motivation for this investigation. We…
We consider a version of generalised $q$-oscillators and some of their applications. The generalisation includes also "quons" of infinite statistics and deformed oscillators of parastatistics. The statistical distributions for different…
This paper deals with quon algebras or deformed oscillator algebras, for which the deformation parameter is a root of unity. We show the interest of such algebras for fractional supersymmetric quantum mechanics, angular momentum theory and…
A fundamental pillar of quantum mechanics concerns indistinguishable quantum particles. In three dimensions they may be classified into fermions or bosons, having, respectively, antisymmetric or symmetric wave functions under particle…
The deformed algebra $\cal{A(R)}$, depending upon a Yang-Baxter R- matrix, is considered. The conditions under which the algebra is associative are discussed for a general number of oscillators. Four types of solutions satisfying these…
We first introduce and discuss the formalism of $SU_q(N)$-bosons and fermions and consider the simplest Hamiltonian involving these operators. We then calculate the grand partition function for these models and study the high temperature…
We construct and study relativistic anyons in 1+1 dimensions generalizing well-known models of Dirac fermions. First, a model of free anyons is constructed and then extended in two ways: (i) by adding density-density interactions, as in the…
We consider the possibility that the SU(2) isospin symmetry, exact in strong interactions but only approximate in nature, is in fact a quantum group. Using a doublet of q-quarks, we build the wavefuntions of pi-mesons, nucleons and Delta…
In two-dimensions, the laws of physics even permit the existence of anyons which exhibit fractional statistics ranging continuously from bosonic to fermionic behaviour. They have been responsible for the fractional quantum Hall effect and…
