"BROOKLYN" QUANTUM MEETUP EXAMINES A CONJECTURE

We'll be continuing our discussion of the Berry-Robbins take on the spin-statistics theorem. We'll review the construction from last week, which used the oscillator representation of spin to unify rotations and permutations. Then we'll turn to the unification of rotations/permutations/actual swaps in space. This hinges on a conjecture of Atiyah's, and involves a map from configurations of n points in 3D to exchange rotations via the constellations formed from the views of each particle on the others. Much beauty results!
