Thermodynamics of non-abelian exclusion statistics

Abstract

The thermodynamic potential of ideal gases described by the simplest non-abelian statistics is investigated. I show that the potential is the linear function of the element of the abelian-part statistics matrix. Thus, the factorizable property in the Haldane (abelian) fractional exclusion shown by the author [W. H. Huang, Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 2392 (1998)] is now extended to the non-abelian case. The complete expansion of the thermodynamic potential is also given.
