Abstract

Generalizing the Ising model from Z(2) to an arbitrary finite group G we find that the double Hopf algebra D(G) plays the role of the Z(2) × Z(2) symmetry group. Non-Abelian ‘parafermion’ fields are constructed that are irreducible tensor operators with respect to D(G) and that generate amplifying homomorphisms of the observable algebra. The quantum symmetry and braid group statistics of the model are analysed in spirit of the Doplicher-Haag-Roberts programme.
