Abstract

Description

Motivated by Haldane's exclusion statistics, we construct creation and annihilation operators for $g$-ons using a bosonic algebra. We find that $g$-ons appear due to the breaking of a descrete symmetry of the original bosonic system. This symmetry is intimately related to the braid group and we demonstrate a link between exclusion statistics and fractional statistics.
