von Neumann Entropy Associated with the Haldane Exclusion Statistics
A. K. Rajagopal
Abstract
We obtain the von Neumann entropy per state of the Haldane exclusion statistics with parameter $g$ in terms of the mean occupation number $\overline{n}$ as ${S}_{H}=\ensuremath{-}\overline{n}{w\mathrm{ln}w\ensuremath{-}(1+w)\mathrm{ln}(1+w)}$, where $w=\frac{(1\ensuremath{-}\overline{n}g)}{\overline{n}}$. This reduces correctly to the well known expressions in the limiting cases of Bose ($g=0$) and Fermi ($g=1$) statistics. We have derived the second and third order fluctuations in the occupation numbers for arbitrary $g$. An elegant general duality relationship between the $w$ factor associated with the particle and that associated with the hole at the reciprocal $g$ is deduced along with the attendant relationship between the two respective entropies.
