Anyonic realization of the quantum affine Lie algebra

Abstract: We give a realization of quantum affine Lie algebras U q ( A N −1 ) and U q ( C N ) in terms of anyons defined on a one-dimensional chain (or on a two-dimensional lattice), the deformation parameter q being related to the statistical parameter ν of the anyons by q = e iπν . In the limit of the deformation parameter going to one we recover the Feingold-Frenkel [1] fermionic construction of undeformed affine Lie algebras.

“…The subject of anyons has been well investigated in the literature, especially in the context of quantum field theory and the braid group [2,5,7,8]. Interesting results have also been derived to describe the thermostatistics of anyons, such as determining the virial coefficients [11,13].…”

“…Although the algebra of q-oscillators appears in the literature on the subject of anyons [7,8,20], it is also known that q-oscillators may have nothing to do with anyons since the former exist in arbitrary space-time dimensions. In our formulation, we do not use q-oscillator algebra, neither do we use Fock states.…”

“…Let us mention that anyon systems have also been considered in the discrete setting, i.e., when T ⊂ N, see e.g. [12,23,13]. It should be, however, mentioned that, when discussing the anyons in the discete setting, Goldin and Majid [13] dropped the assumption that the annihilation operator is adjoint of the creation operator, and proved an anyonic exclusion principle for their model.…”

“…While this picture relating 2 + 1 and 1 + 1 physics, which we briefly sketched, has been greatly developed and clarified, new ideas have emerged in 1 + 1 dimensions whose corresponding rôle (if any) in 2 + 1 dimensions remains unclear. In this regard, q-deformed affine Lie algebras associated with quantum groups [12] have been formulated for the entire non-exceptional series and a construction in terms of anyonic q-deformed oscillators has been given, at least for the unitary and symplectic cases [13]. Furthermore, q-deformed affine Lie algebras, enter in different aspects of 1 + 1 integrable models [14,15].…”
