Fermi-Bose Transmutation for Stringlike Excitations of Maxwell-Higgs Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that a closed Nielsen-Olesen string in presence of a point scalar source exhibits the phenomenon of Fermi-Bose transmutation. This provides physical support to previous claims about transmutation between bosonic and fermionic one-dimensional structures in (3+1) dimensions. In order to render the computations mathematically rigorous we have resorted to an Euclidean lattice regularization.

Fractional statistics in three dimensions: Compact Maxwell-Higgs system.
We show that a (3+1)-dimensional system composed of an open magnetic vortex and an electrical point charge exhibits the phenomenon of Fermi-Bose transmutation. In order to provide the physical realization of this system we focus on the lattice compact scalar electrodynamics SQED c whose topological excitations are open Nielsen-Olesen strings with magnetic monopoles attached at their ends.

We consider the Maxwell-Higgs system in the broken phase, described in terms of a Kalb-Ramond field interacting with the electromagnetic field through a topological coupling. We then study the creation operators of states which respectively carry a point charge and a closed magnetic string in the electromagnetic language or a point topological charge and a closed Kalb-Ramond charged string in t...
متن کاملBose-Metals and non-Fermi-liquid metals.dvi
Underlying the quantum theory of many-particle non-relativistic systems are the canonical quantum fluids superfluid phases of Bosons and Fermiliquid phases of Fermions. These two quantum phases of matter are extremely well understood, and are both accessible from models of weakly interacting particles. The only low energy excitation in a superfluid is the Goldstone mode of the broken particle n...
متن کاملRandom-phase approximation study of collective excitations in the Bose-Fermi mixed condensate of alkali-metal gases
We perform Random Phase Approximation (RPA) study of collective excitations in the bose-fermi mixed degenerate gas of Alkali-metal atoms at T = 0. The calculation is done by diagonalization in a model space composed of particle-hole type excitations from the ground state, the latter being obtained from the coupled Gross-Pitaevskii and Thomas-Fermi equations. We investigate strength distribution...
