Fock representations of Q-deformed commutation relations

Abstract

We consider Fock representations of the Q-deformed commutation relations ∂s∂t†=Q(s,t)∂t†∂s+δ(s,t) for s,t∈T. Here T:=Rd (or more generally T is a locally compact Polish space), the function Q:T2→C satisfies |Q(s,t)|≤1 and Q(s,t)=Q(t,s)¯, and ∫T2h(s)g(t)δ(s,t) σ(ds)σ(dt):=∫Th(t)g(t) σ(dt), σ being a fixed reference measure on T. In the case, where |Q(s,t)|≡1, the Q-deformed commutation relations describe a generalized statistics studied by Liguori and Mintchev. These generalized statistics contain anyon statistics as a special case (with T=R2 and a special choice of the function Q). The related Q-deformed Fock space F(H) over H:=L2(T→C,σ) is constructed. An explicit form of the orthogonal projection of H⊗n onto the n-particle space Fn(H) is derived. A scalar product in Fn(H) is given by an operator Pn≥0 in H⊗n which is strictly positive on Fn(H). We realize the smeared operators ∂t† and ∂t as creation and annihilation operators in F(H), respectively. Additional Q-commutation relations are obtained between the creation operators and between the annihilation operators. They are of the form ∂s†∂t†=Q(t,s)∂t†∂s†, ∂s∂t=Q(t,s)∂t∂s, valid for those s,t∈T for which |Q(s, t)| = 1.
