Statistical Transmutation and Phases of Two-Dimensional Quantum Matter

چکیده

After surveying the quantum kinematics and dynamics of statistical transmutation, I show how this concept suggests a phase diagram for the two-dimensional matter in a magnetic field, as a function of quantum statistics. I discuss the fundamental properties of quasiparticles in the different phases, and briefly suggest gedanken – but not manifestly infeasible – experiments to show up these properties.

Statistical transmutation in doped quantum dimer models.

We prove a "statistical transmutation" symmetry of doped quantum dimer models on the square, triangular, and kagome lattices: the energy spectrum is invariant under a simultaneous change of statistics (i.e., bosonic into fermionic or vice versa) of the holes and of the signs of all the dimer resonance loops. This exact transformation enables us to define the duality equivalence between doped qu...

A New Distribution Family Constructed by Fractional Polynomial Rank Transmutation

In this study‎, ‎a new polynomial rank transmutation is proposed with the help of‎ ‎ the idea of quadratic rank transmutation mapping (QRTM)‎. ‎This polynomial rank‎ ‎ transmutation is allowed to extend the range of the transmutation parameter from‎ ‎  [-1,1] to [-1,k]‎‎. ‎At this point‎, ‎the generated distributions gain more&lrm...

When the classical & quantum mechanical considerations hint to a single point; a microscopic particle in a one dimensional box with two infinite walls and a linear potential inside it

In this paper we have solved analytically the Schrödinger equation for a microscopic particle in a one-dimensional box with two infinite walls, which the potential function inside it, has a linear form. Based on the solutions of this special quantum mechanical system, we have shown that as the quantum number approaches infinity the expectation values of microscopic particle position and square ...

Spin Transmutation in (2 + 1) Dimensions

We study a relativistic anyon model with a spin-j matter field minimally coupled to a statistical gauge potential governed by the Chern-Simons dynamics with a statistical parameter α. A spin and statistics transmutation is shown in terms of a continuous random walk method. An integer or odd-half-integer part of α can be reabsorbed by change of j. We discuss the equivalence of a large class of (...

The theory of second order phase transitions is one of the foundations of modern statistical mechanics and condensed matter theory. A central concept is the observable ‘order parameter’, whose non-zero average value characterizes one or more phases and usually breaks a symmetry of the Hamiltonian. At large distances and long times, fluctuations of the order parameter(s) are described by a conti...
