Parity as the foundation of the non-relativistic spin-statistics connection
arXiv (Cornell University)(2022)
Abstract
It is shown that the symmetry under parity of the wavefunctions of two identical particles with an arbitrary spin $s$ in three spatial dimensions accounts for the appropriate wavefunction exchange statistics under the permutations of particles. The standard properties of the angular momentum in non-relativistic quantum mechanics account for the sign factor $(-1)^{2s}$ that the wavefunctions acquire under the permutation of coordinates of the two particles, without any additional requirements, directly relating spin and the particle exchange statistics in the non-relativistic context.
