Abstract
States with fractional fermion charge have been discovered in relativistic field theory and condensed matter physics. In the latter context they lead to unexpected but experimentally verified predictions for one-dimensional electron-phonon systems like polyacetylene. We examine the common basis for this fortunate convergence between condensed matter and relativistic field theories.
