Abstract

This paper deals with quon algebras or deformed oscillator algebras, for which the deformation parameter is a root of unity. We motivate why such algebras are interesting for fractional supersymmetric quantum mechanics, angular momentum theory and quantum information. More precisely, quon algebras are used for (i) a realization of a generalized Weyl-Heisenberg algebra from which it is possible to associate a fractional supersymmetric dynamical system, (ii) a polar decomposition of SU2 and (iii) a construction of mutually unbiased bases in Hilbert spaces of prime dimension. We also briefly discuss (symmetric informationally complete) positive operator valued measures in the spirit of (iii).
