We propose a simple model for a free relativistic particle of fractional spin in 2+1 dimensions which satisfies all the necessary conditions. The canonical quantization of the system leads to the description of one- particle states of the…
The non-relativistic quantum field theoretic lagrangian which describes an anyon system in the presence of an electromagnetic field is identified. A non-minimal magnetic coupling to the Chern-Simons statistical field as well as to the…
In their recent letter, Chaichian et.~al. present a Lagrangian for a massive ($m$) point particle on the plane, with which they claim to realize anyon statistics. However, we find that there are some inaccuracies in their formulation and,…
A general introduction to the anyon model (braid group, Chern-Simons Lagrangian and Aharonov-Bohm Hamiltonian formulations) is given. A review follows on exact results and possible ways of getting additional information, as mean field…
The coupling of non-relativistic anyons (called exotic particles) to an electromagnetic field is considered. Anomalous coupling is introduced by adding a spin-orbit term to the Lagrangian. Alternatively, one has two Hamiltonian structures,…
Using the appropriate representation of the Poincare group and a definition of minimal coupling, we discuss some aspects of the electromagnetic interactions of charged anyons. In a nonrelativistic expansion, we derive a Schrodinger-type…
We propose a new model for interacting (electrically charged) anyons, where the 2+1-dimensional Darwin term is responsible for interactions. The Hamiltonian is comparable with the one used previously (in the RPA calculation).
We propose a generalized form of the Thomas-Bargmann-Michel-Telegdi equations. These are first-order in both electric and magnetic fields and retain the conventional conserved quantities and constraints. Within this novel phenomenological…
Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of a free spinning particle in 2+1-dimensions or {\it anyon} are established, following closely the analysis of Hanson and Regge. Two viable (and inequivalent) Lagrangians are derived. It is also…
The first-order, infinite-component field equations we proposed before for non-relativistic anyons (identified with particles in the plane with noncommuting coordinates) are generalized to accommodate arbitrary background electromagnetic…
Using two new well defined 4-dimensional potential vectors, we formulate the classical Maxwell's field theory in a form which has manifest Lorentz covariance and SO(2) duality symmetry in the presence of magnetic sources. We set up a…
We analyze the quantum mechanics of anyons on the sphere in the presence of a constant magnetic field. We introduce an operator method for diagonalizing the Hamiltonian and derive a set of exact anyon energy eigenstates, in partial…
We reintroduce an alternative expression for the Lagrangian density that governs the interaction of a charged particle with external electromagnetic fields, proposed by Livens about one century ago. This Lagrangian is written in terms of…
Relativistic and nonrelativistic anyons are described in a unified formalism by means of the coadjoint orbits of the symmetry groups in the free case as well as when there is an interaction with a constant electromagnetic field. To deal…
Starting from a Lagrangian, the electromagnetic field is quantized in the presence of a body rotating along its axis of symmetry. Response functions and fluctuation-dissipation relations are obtained. A general formula for rotational…
We consider an interacting system of spinor and electromagnetic field, explicitly depending on the electromagnetic potentials, i.e., interaction with broken gauge invariance. The Lagrangian for interaction is chosen in such a way that the…
We point out that in a recent paper by Chaichian et al. (Phys. Rev.Lett71(1993)3405) Dirac quantization procedure is not properly followed as a result of which the resulting quantum theory is different from what one will get by a…

Letting the mass depend on the spin-field coupling as $M^2=m^2-(eg/2c^2)F_{\alpha\beta}S^{\alpha\beta}$, we propose a new set of relativistic planar equations of motion for spinning anyons. Our model can accommodate any gyromagnetic ratio…
Recent work by Philbin [1] has provided a Lagrangian theory that establishes a general method for the canonical quantization of the electromagnetic field in any dispersive, lossy, linear dielectric. Working from this theory, we extend the…
