Abstract

The computation of the N-cycle Brownian paths contribution FN(\ensuremathα) to the N-anyon partition function is addressed. A detailed numerical analysis based on a random walk on a lattice indicates that FN0(\ensuremathα)=\ensuremath∏k=1^N\mathrm\ensuremath-1[1-(N/k)\ensuremathα]. In the paramount three-anyon case, one can show that F3(\ensuremathα) is built by linear states belonging to the bosonic, fermionic, and mixed representations of S3.
