Evaluation of the permutational structure of quantum gases at finite temperature.
Proposed is an alternative method for permutational sampling in quantum gases using the path integral formulation of statistical mechanics. It is shown that in principle we are able to use two operators which enable us to construct a Markov chain through a graph of the irreducible representation of the symmetric group. As an illustration of this method, a test calculation of four particles in a harmonic trap is performed.
