3 A Deformed Quon Algebra Hery Randriamaro June 20, 2018 Abstract The quon algebra is an approach to particle statistics in order to provide a theory in which the Pauli exclusion principle and Bose statistics are violated by a small amount The quons are particles whose annihilation and creation operators obey the quon algebra which interpolates between fermions and bosons In this paper we generalize these models by introducing a deformation of the quon algebra generated by a collection of operators a i,k, (i, k N [m], on an infinite dimensional vector space satisfying the deformed q-mutator relations a j,l a i,k qa i,k a j,l + q β k,l δ i,j We prove the realizability of our model by showing that, for suitable values of q, the vector space generated by the particle states obtained by applying combinations of a i,k s and a i,k s to a vacuum state 0 is a Hilbert space The proof particularly needs the investigation of the new statistic cinv and representations of the colored permutation group Keywords: Quon Algebra, Infinite Statistics, Hilbert Space, Colored Permutation Group MSC Number: 05E15, 81R10, 15A15 1 Introduction Let R(q be the fraction field of the real polynomials with variable q By a deformed quon algebra A, we mean the free algebra R(q [ a i,k (i, k N [m] ] subject to the anti-involution exchanging a i,k with a i,k, and to the commutation relation where δ i,j is the Kronecker delta and a j,l a i,k qa i,k a j,l + q β k,l δ i,j, { 0 if l k m mod m β k,l 1 otherwise This algebra is a generalization of the quon algebra introduced by Greenberg [2], subject to the commutation relation a j a i qa i a j + δ i,j obeyed by the annihilation and creation Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Schwarzwaldstraße 9-11, Oberwolfach, Germany heryrandriamaro@outlookcom This research was supported through the programme Oberwolfach Leibniz Fellows by the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach in

4 operators of the quon particles, and generating a model of infinite statistics Moreover, the quon algebra is a generalization of the classical Bose and Fermi algebras corresponding to the restrictions q 1 and q 1 respectively, as well as of the intermediate case q 0 suggested by Hegstrom and investigated by Greenberg [1] In a Fock-like representation, the generators of A are the linear operators a i,k, a i,k : V V on an infinite dimensional real vector space V satisfying the commutation relations a j,l a i,k qa i,k a j,l q β k,l δ i,j, and the relations a i,k 0 0, where a i,k is the adjoint of a i,k, and 0 is a nonzero distinguished vector of V The a i,k s are the annihilation operators and the a i,k s the creation operators Let H be the vector subspace of V generated by the particle states obtained by applying combinations of a i,k s and a i,k s to 0, or H : { a 0 a A The aim of this article is to prove the realizability of this model through the following theorem Theorem 11 H is a Hilbert space for the bilinear form (, : H H R(q defined by ( a 0, b 0 : 0 a b 0 with 0 0 1, and for 1 < q < 1 if m 1 and 1 < q < 1 if m > 1 1 m Theorem 11 is a generalization of the realizability of the quon algebra model in infinite statistics proved by Zagier [3, Theorem 1] To prove Theorem 11, we begin by showing in Section 3 that B : { a i n,k n 0 (i u, k u N [m], n N is a basis of H, so that we can assume that { n H λ i b i n N, λ i R(q, b i B i1 Denote by U m the group of all m th roots of unity, and S n the permutation group on [n] We represent an element π of the colored permutation group of m colors U m S n by ( 1 2 n π ( ( (, σ(1, k1 σ(2, k2 σ(n, kn where k 1,, k n [m], and σ is a permutation of [n] But we also adopt the notation π (σ, α meaning that σ S n and α : [n] [m] such that i [n], π(i ( σ(i, α(i 2

(i 2 +i 3 i1

6 We particularly can infer that M [n] is nonsingular for 1 < q < 1 if m 1 and 1 < q < 1 if m > 1 1 m Since M [n] is the identity matrix of order m n n! if q 0, we deduce by continuity that M [n] is positive definite for the values of q mentioned above For these suitable values of q, M is then a symmetric positive definite matrix or, in other terms, the bilinear form of Theorem 11 is an inner product on H But before investigating the deformed quon algebra, it is necessary to recall some notions in representation theory and do some computations in Section 2 We would like to thank Patrick Rabarison for the discussions on quantum statistics 2 Representation Theory We recall the useful notions on representation theory of group and do some calculations for the cyclic groups Take a group G and a finite-dimensional vector space V over a field K Let g, h G, a, b K, and u, v V Then V is a G-module if there is a multiplication of elements of V by elements of G such that u g V (au + bv g a(u g + b(v g, u (gh (u g h, u 1 u where 1 is the neutral element of G Take an element x in the group algebra K[G] Suppose that {v 1,, v n is a basis of V, and that v j x i [n] µ i,jv i Then the representation of x on the G-module V is the matrix R V (x : (µ i,j i,j [n] In particular if x g G λ gg K[G] with λ g R, then the regular representation of x is R K[G] (x : ( λ h 1 g g,h G Lemma 21 Let G be a finite group, H G, and x K[H] Then, det R K[G] (x ( det R K[H] (x G:H Proof Let H {h 1,, h r, and {g 1,, g k be a left coset representative set of H On the ordered basis (g 1 h 1,, g 1 h r, g 2 h 1,, g 2 h r,, g k h 1,, g k h r of K[G], we have where I G:H is the unit matrix of size G : H R K[G] (x R K[H] (x I G:H, Now consider the cyclic group Z m of order m generated by γ, and take a variable z We need the following equalities on the group algebra R(z[Z m ] 4
