The parastatistics Fock space and explicit Lie superalgebra representations

It is known that the defining triple relations of m pairs of parafermion operators and n pairs of paraboson operators with relative parafermion relations can be considered as defining relations for the Lie superalgebra osp(2m+1|2n) in terms of 2(m+n) generators. With the common Hermiticity conditions, this means that the parastatistics Fock space of order p corresponds to an infinite-dimensional unitary irreducible representation V(p) of osp(2m+1|2n), with lowest weight (-p/2,...,- p/|p/2,...,p/2). These representations also in the simplest case m=n=1 had never been constructed due to computational difficulties, despite their importance. In the present paper we solve partially the problem in the general case using group theoretical techniques, in which the u(m|n) subalgebra of osp(2m+1|2n) plays a crucial role: a set of Gelfand-Zetlin patterns of u(m|n) can be used to label the basis vectors of V(p). An explicit and elegant construction of these representations V(p) for m=n=1, and the actions or matrix elements of the osp(3|2) generators are given.
