We obtain for an anyon gas in the high temperature limit a relation between the exclusion statistics parameter
g and the Hausdorff dimension
h, given by
g=h(2−h). The anyonic excitations are classified into equivalence classes labeled by Hausdorff dimension,
h, and in that limit, the parameter
g give us the second virial coefficient for any statistics,
ν. The anyonic excitations into the same class
h get the same value of this virial coefficient.
We analytically calculate some thermodynamic quantities of an ideal
g-on gas obeying generalized exclusion statistics. We show that the specific heat of a
g-on gas (
g=0) vanishes linearly in any dimension as
T→0 when the particle number is conserved and exhibits an interesting dual symmetry that relates the particle-statistics at
g to the hole-statistics at
1/g at low temperatures. We derive the complete solution for the cluster coefficients
bl(g) as a function of Haldane's statistical interaction
g in
D dimensions. We also find that the cluster coefficients
bl(g) and the virial coefficients
al(g) are exactly mirror symmetric (
l=odd) or antisymmetric (
l=even) about
g=1/2. In two dimensions, we completely determine the closed forms about the cluster and the virial coefficients of the generalized exclusion statistics, which exactly agree with the virial coefficients of an anyon gas of linear energies. We show that the
g-on gas with zero chemical potential shows thermodynamic properties similar to the photon statistics. We discuss some physical implications of our results.
The thermodynamics of two-species gases described by the Haldane exclusion statistics is investigated. I use the high-temperature perturbation to find the third Virial coefficient for the gas in an arbitrary dimension. The perturbative result indicates that the two-dimensional thermodynamic potential becomes the linear function of the element of the Haldane statistics matrix, if the matrix is symmetric and particle mass is species independent. I also present a nonperturbative method to prove this factorizable property and an exact expression of the thermodynamic potential is suggested.
Do anyons, dynamically realized by the field theoretic Chern-Simons construction, obey fractional exclusion statistics? We find that they do if the statistical interaction between anyons and antianyons is taken into account. For this anyon model, we show perturbatively that the exchange statistical parameter of anyons is equal to the exclusion statistical parameter. We obtain the same result by applying the relation between the exclusion statistical parameter and the second virial coefficient in the nonrelativistic limit.
I discuss Haldane's concept of generalized exclusion statistics (1991 Phys. Rev. Lett. 67 937) and show that it leads to inconsistencies in the calculation of the particle distribution that maximizes the partition function. These inconsistencies appear when mutual exclusion statistics is manifested between different subspecies of particles in the system. In order to eliminate these inconsistencies, I introduce new mutual exclusion statistics parameters, which are proportional to the dimension of the Hilbert subspace on which they act. These new definitions lead to properly defined particle distributions and thermodynamic properties. In another paper ( Preprint 0710.0728), I show that the fractional exclusion statistics manifested in general systems with interaction have these, physically consistent, statistics parameters.
