Fock representations of multicomponent (particularly non-Abelian anyon) commutation relations
Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space and $T$ be a self-adjoint bounded linear operator on $H^{\otimes 2}$ with norm $\le1$, satisfying the Yang--Baxter equation. Bożejko and Speicher (1994) proved that the operator $T$ determines a $T$-deformed Fock space $\mathcal F(H)=\bigoplus_{n=0}^\infty\mathcal F_n(H)$. We start with reviewing and extending the known results about the structure of the $n$-particle spaces $\mathcal F_n(H)$ and the commutation relations satisfied by the corresponding creation and annihilation operators acting on $\mathcal F(H)$. We then choose $H=L^2(X\to V)$, the $L^2$-space of $V$-valued functions on $X$. Here $X:=\mathbb R^d$ and $V:=\mathbb C^m$ with $m\ge2$. Furthermore, we assume that the operator $T$ acting on $H^{\otimes 2}=L^2(X^2\to V^{\otimes 2})$ is given by $(Tf^{(2)})(x,y)=C_{x,y}f^{(2)}(y,x)$. Here, for a.a.\ $(x,y)\in X^2$, $C_{x,y}$ is a linear operator on $V^{\otimes 2}$ with norm $\le1$ that satisfies $C_{x,y}^*=C_{y,x}$ and the spectral quantum Yang--Baxter equation. The corresponding creation and annihilation operators describe a multicomponent quantum system. A special choice of the operator-valued function $C_{xy}$ in the case $d=2$ determines non-Abelian anyons (also called plektons). For a multicomponent system, we describe its $T$-deformed Fock space and the available commutation relations satisfied by the corresponding creation and annihilation operators. Finally, we consider several examples of multicomponent quantum systems.
