We show that the assumption of quasiperiodic boundary conditions (those that interpolate continuously periodic and antiperiodic conditions) in order to compute partition functions of relativistic particles in 2+1 space–time can be related with anyonic physics. In particular, in the low temperature limit, our result leads to the well-known second virial coefficient for anyons. Besides, we also obtain the high temperature limit as well as the full temperature dependence of this coefficient.


A general theory of the second virial coefficient of axially symmetric molecules is developed, the directional part of the intermolecular field being treated as a perturbationon the central-force part. The method is applicable to any type of intermolecular potential, particular models of directional interaction being obtained by suitable choices of parameters. Simple expressions are given for the second virial coefficient due to several types of directional force. The theory is illustrated by some calculations on the force field of carbon dioxide and its relation to the second virial coefficient and crystal data. These indicate that there is strong quadrupole interaction between carbon dioxide molecules.

We consider the simplest SU q(2) invariant fermionic Hamiltonian and calculate the low and high temperature behavior for the two distinct cases q>1 and q<1. For low temperatures we find that entropy values for the Fermi case are an upper bound for those corresponding to q≠1. At high temperatures we find that the sign of the second virial coefficient depends on q, and vanishes at q=1.96. An important consequence of this fact is that the parameter q connects the fermionic and bosonic regions, showing therefore that SU q(2) fermions exhibit fractional statistics in three spatial dimensions.
