Q-Deformed determinants and a unified realization of boson, fermion and quon algebras

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

A new mathematical concept, theq-deformation of the determinant is proposed. By using theq-deformed Slater determinant, a unified realization of boson, fermion and quon algebras is presented. The quon algebra is characterized by the qumutation relationa j a ° k -qa δ k a j = δ jk , which interpolates between Fermi anticommutation and Bose commutation relations. It turns out that for allq∈(−1, 1), the Fock-like spaces are the same, that is the direct sum of all tensor product powers of the single particle spaceh,. This state vector space describes systems of identical particles obeying Boltzmann statistics.
