• Abstract: The composite particle duality extends the notions of both flux attachment and statistical transmutation in spacetime dimensions beyond 2+1D. It constitutes an exact correspondence that can be understood either as a theoretical framework or as a dynamical physical mechanism. The immediate implication of the duality is that an interacting quantum system in arbitrary dimensions can experience a modification of its statistical properties if coupled to a certain gauge field. In other words, commutation relations of quantum fields can be effectively modified by a dynamical physical process. For instance, an originally bosonic quantum fluid in $d$ spatial dimensions can feature composite fermionic (or anyonic) excitations when coupled to a statistical gauge field. In 3+1D the mechanism of flux attachment induces a dynamical formation of dyons as higher-dimensional analogues of Laughlin quasiparticles. In 1+1D there is lack of flux attachment but a remnant in the form of a statistical gauge field can be explicitly constructed. We also introduce a family of interacting quantum many-body systems that undergo statistical transmutation as indicated by the duality. This opens the door to a new realm of topological phases across dimensions both in lattice and continuum systems.

  An analogy between non-relativistic quantum mechanics in the Madelung formulation and quantum geometrodynamics is drawn. It is shown that the perfect nature of the fluid is broken by the quantum Bohm potential. The explicit dependences of the cosmic scale factor on the conformal time, which take into account the quantum additive, are found for empty space with spatial curvature and for a spatially flat universe with dust and radiation.

In two dimensions we obtain good estimations of the ground-state energies, comparable to results obtained from more conventional methods.

Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
