Abstract
We discuss the concept of “duality” between statistics and symmetry. While a compact symmetry group is dual to permutation group statistics, the understanding of the symmetry structure dual to braid group statistics is only at its beginning. We use the duality to identify a “first approximation” to this structure and the corresponding algebra of charged fields.
