What is between Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein Statistics?

By analyzing the BCS-BEC crossover, I found that because of the pairing interactions,a continuous family of quantum statistics interpolating between fermions and bosons is possible, although it seems incapable to construct reasonable wave function.

The number-theoretical problem of partition of an integer corresponds to $D=2$. This problem obeys the Bose--Eeinstein statistics, where repeated terms are admissible in the partition, and to the Fermi--Dirac statistics, where they are inadmissible. The Hougen--Watson P,Z-diagram shows that this problem splits into two cases: the positive pressure domain corresponds to the Fermi system, and the negative, to the Bose system. This analogy can be applied to the van der Waals the...

When dealing with certain kind of complex phenomena the theoretician may face some difficulties -- typically a failure to have access to information for properly characterize the system -- for applying the full power of the standard approach to the well established, physically and logically sound, Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics. To circumvent such difficulties, in order to make predictions on properties of the system and looking for an understanding of the physics involved (for e...

We consider thermodynamics of the van der Waals fluid of quantum systems. We derive general relations of thermodynamic functions and parameters of any ideal gas and the corresponding van der Waals fluid. This provides unambiguous generalization of the classical van der Waals theory to quantum statistical systems. As an example, we apply the van der Waals fluid with fermi statistics to characterize the liquid-gas critical point in nuclear matter. We also introduce the Bose-Ein...

We link, by means of a semiclassical approach, the fractional statistics of particles obeying the Haldane exclusion principle to the Tsallis statistics and derive a generalized quantum entropy and its associated statistics.

This Tutorial is the continuation of the previous tutorial part, published in Laser Phys. 23, 062001 (2013), where the basic mathematical techniques required for an accurate description of cold atoms for both types of quantum statistics are expounded. In the present part, the specifics of the correct theoretical description of atoms obeying Bose-Einstein statistics are explained, including trapped Bose atoms. In the theory of systems exhibiting the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein...

Fractional exclusion statistics (FES) is a generalization of the Bose and Fermi statistics. Typically, systems of interacting particles are described as ideal FES systems and the properties of the FES systems are calculated from the properties of the interacting systems. In this paper I reverse the process and I show that a FES system may be described in general as a gas of quasiparticles which obey Bose or Fermi distributions; the energies of the newly defined quasiparticles...

Does the quantum equipartition theorem truly exist for any given system? If so, what is the concrete form of such a theorem? The extension of the equipartition theorem, a fundamental principle in classical statistical physics, to the quantum regime raises these two crucial questions. In the present Letter, we focus on how to answer them for arbitray systems. For this propose, the inverse problem of the quantum equipartition theorem has been successfully solved. This result, t...

The idea that a system obeying interpolating statistics can be described by a deformed oscillator algebra has been an outstanding issue. This original concept introduced long ago by Greenberg is the motivation for this investigation. We establish that a q-deformed algebra can be used to describe the statistics of particles (anyons) interpolating continuously between Bose and Fermi statistics, i.e., fractional statistics. We show that the generalized intermediate statistics sp...

This paper is concerned with statistical properties of a gas of $qp$-bosons without interaction. Some thermodynamical functions for such a system in $D$ dimensions are derived. Bose-Einstein condensation is discussed in terms of the parameters $q$ and $p$. Finally, the second-order correlation function of a gas of photons is calculated.
