Finite Temperature Correlators in the Schwinger Model

We discuss the correlation function of hadronic currents in the Schwinger model at finite temperature $T$. We explicitly construct the retarded correlator in real time and obtain analytical results for the Euclidean correlator on a torus. Both constructions lead to the same finite temperature spectral function. The spatial screening lengths in the mesonic channels are related to the dynamical meson mass $m=e/\sqrtπ$ and not $2πT$ even in the infinite temperature limit. The relevance of our results for the finite temperature problem in four dimensions is discussed.

Anyons on Higher Genus Surfaces - a Constructive Approach

We reconsider the problem of anyons on higher genus surfaces by embedding them in three dimensional space. From a concrete realization based on three dimensional flux tubes bound to charges moving on the surface, we explicitly derive all the representations of the spinning braid group. The component structure of the wave functions arises from winding the flux tubes around the handles. We also argue that the anyons in our construction must fulfil the generalized spin-statistics relation.

The Calogero Model - Anyonic Representation, Fermionic Extension and Supersymmetry

We discuss several applications and extensions of our previous operator solution of the $N$-body Calogero problem, \ie N particles in 1 dimension subject to a two-body interaction of the form $\half \sum_{i,j}[ (x_i - x_j)^2 + g/ {(x_i - x_j)^2}]$. Using a complex representation of the deformed Heisenberg algebra underlying the Calogero model, we explicitly establish the equivalence between this system and anyons in the lowest Landau level. A construction based on supersymmetry is used to extend our operator method to include fermions, and we obtain an explicit solution of the supersymmetric Calogero model constructed by Freedman and Mende. We also show how the dynamical $OSp(2;2)$ supersymmetry is realized by bilinears of modified creation and annihilation operators, and how to construct a supersymmetic extension of the deformed Heisenberg algebra.

Quantum Mechanics on Thin Cylinders

We discuss the quantum mechanics of particles of arbitrary statistics on an infinite cylinder with and without a magnetic field perpendicular to the surface. In the presence of a magnetic field, the translational symmetry along the cylinder is broken down to a discrete one by the Aharonov-Bohm effect. For interacting fermions in a strong field we get an effective one-dimensional lattice model that in a limit can be mapped on an Ising chain. We also show that a system of anyons on a cylinder are, in a certain limit closely related to the one-dimensional (integrable) Sutherland model. By order of magnitude estimates we demonstrate that none of these effects are likely to be experimentally observed with present techniques.

Explicit Solution to the N-Body Calogero Problem

We solve the N-body Calogero problem, \ie N particles in 1 dimension subject to a two-body interaction of the form $\half \sum_{i,j}[ (x_i - x_j)^2 + g/ {(x_i - x_j)^2}]$, by constructing annihilation and creation operators of the form $ a_i^\mp =\frac 1 {\sqrt 2} (x _i \pm i\hat{p}_i )$, where $\hat{p}_i$ is a modified momentum operator obeying %!!!!!!! Heisenberg-type commutation relations with $x_i$, involving explicitly permutation operators. On the other hand, $ D_j =i\,\hat{p}_j$ can be interpreted as a covariant derivative corresponding to a flat connection. The relation to fractional statistics in 1+1 dimensions and anyons in a strong magnetic field is briefly discussed.
