Fermionic Exchange Symmetry: Quantifying its Influence beyond Pauli’s Exclusion Principle |
The Pauli exclusion principle has a strong impact on the properties and the behavior of most fermionic quantum systems. Remarkably, even stronger restrictions on fermionic natural occupation numbers follow from the fermionic exchange symmetry. |
