The Kinematics of Anyon Multipole Configurations
In two space dimensions, we show how interesting quantum phases can arise not only from the exchange statistics of anyons, but independently from their theoretically possible internal structure. I will discuss the possible kinematics of anyon configurations having dipole and quadrupole properties. This is in collaboration with Hongyi Shen at Rutgers University, and forms part of his Ph.D. thesis in progress.
