Boson–fermion and baryon mapping: Construction of collective subspaces. II. Example: A simple quark shell model

Abstract

The formalism derived for the boson–fermion and the baryon mapping in Paper I of this series is applied to the single-orbit quark shell model developed by Petry and co-workers for the description of nuclear properties. The multiquark space is reduced to the collective subspace of multinucleon states. A collective representation of states and operators in terms of bosons and ideal fermions or in terms of ideal baryons, respectively, is constructed. The results of the original model in the multinucleon space are exactly reproduced. Finally, the two transformations are compared with a related mapping technique recently published by Pittel, Engel, Dukelsky, and Ring.
