Fundamental groupoids in quantum mechanics: a new approach to quantization in multiply-connected spaces
Quantization of multiply-connected spaces requires tools which take these spaces' global properties into account. Applying these tools exposes additional degrees of freedom. This was first realized in the Aharonov-Bohm effect, where this additional degree of freedom was a magnetic flux confined to a solenoid, which an electron cannot enter. Previous work using Feynman path integrals has either only dealt with specific cases, or was limited to spaces with finite fundamental groups, and therefore, was in fact inapplicable to the Aharonov-Bohm effect, as well as to interesting systems such as any…

Quantum walk of two anyons across a statistical boundary
We model a quantum walk of identical particles that can change their exchange statistics by hopping across a domain wall in a 1D lattice. Such a "statistical boundary" is transparent to single particles and affects the dynamics only by swapping multiple particles arriving together. We find that the two-particle interference is dramatically altered by reflections of these bunched waves at the interface, producing strong measurable asymmetries. Depending on the phases on the two sides, a bunched wavepacket can get completely reflected or split into a superposition of a reflected wave and an anti…

Identical Particles in Quantum Mechanics: Operational and Topological Considerations
This dissertation reports our investigation into the existence of anyons, which interpolate between bosons and fermions, in light of the Symmetrization Postulate, which states that only the two extremes exist. The Symmetrization Postulate can be understood as asserting that there are only two consistent ways of combining the behavior of distinguishable particles to obtain the behavior of identical ones. We showed that anyonic behavior then arises because of the way in which the probability amplitudes of distinguishable particles in two dimensions are affected by the topology of the space. Thes…
