Particle exchange statistics beyond fermions and bosons

Zhiyuan Wang, Kaden R. A. Hazzard

Abstract It is commonly believed that there are only two types of particle exchange statistics in quantum mechanics, fermions and bosons, with the exception of anyons in two dimensions 1–5 . In principle, a second exception known as parastatistics, which extends outside two dimensions, has been considered 6 but was believed to be physically equivalent to fermions and bosons 7–9 . Here we show that non-trivial parastatistics inequivalent to either fermions or bosons can exist in physical systems. These new types of identical particle obey generalized exclusion principles, leading to exotic free-particle thermodynamics distinct from any system of free fermions and bosons. We formulate our theory by developing a second quantization of paraparticles that naturally includes exactly solvable non-interacting theories and incorporates physical constraints such as locality. We then construct a family of exactly solvable quantum spin models in one and two dimensions, in which free paraparticles emerge as quasiparticle excitations, and their exchange statistics can be physically observed and are notably distinct from fermions and bosons. This demonstrates the possibility of a new type of quasiparticle in condensed matter systems and—more speculatively—the potential for previously unconsidered types of elementary particle.

String Condensation—An Unification of Light and Fermions

Xiao-Gang Wen

This book has three types of theories: boson, fermion, and gauge theories. It asks which theories describe the elementary particles in our universe. Surprisingly, elementary particles are described by the two more complicated and non-local theories: fermion theory and gauge theory. In the last chapter and in this chapter it is demonstrated that fermion and gauge theory are not really needed. Boson theory may be able to explain everything, since both fermion theory and gauge theory can emerge from local bosonic models (or qbit models), if bosons (qbits) are organized to have a string-net condensed order. This chapter studies soluble quantum spin models to explain string-net condensation. It finds that gauge bosons are simply collective excitations associated with string density wave (with the electric field corresponding to the string density). The fermons can appear as the ends of open strings. Thus the string-net order explains the emergence of gauge bosons and fermions. It unifies gauge interaction and Fermi statistics. The chapter shows that non-orientable strings give rise to Z_2 gauge theory while the orientable string give rise to U(1) gauge theory.

Correspondence between dark solitons and the type II excitations of the Lieb-Liniger model

Tomasz Karpiuk, Tomasz Sowiński, Mariusz Gajda +2 more

A one-dimensional model of bosons with repulsive short-range interactions, solved analytically by Lieb and Liniger many years ago, predicts the existence of two branches of elementary excitations. One of them represents Bogoliubov phonons; the other, as suggested by some authors, might be related to dark solitons. On the other hand, it has been already demonstrated within the framework of the classical field approximation that a quasi-one-dimensional interacting Bose gas at equilibrium exhibits excitations which are phonons and dark solitons. By showing that for lower temperatures statistical distributions of dark solitons obtained within the classical field approximation are well represented by the distributions of quasiparticles of the second kind derived from fully quantum description, we demonstrate that type II excitations in the Lieb-Liniger model are, indeed, quantum solitons.
