Multiple Exclusion Statistics.

A new distribution for systems of particles in equilibrium obeying exclusion of correlated states is presented following the Haldane's state counting. It relies upon an ansatz to deal with the multiple exclusion that takes place when the states accessible to single particles are spatially correlated and it can be simultaneously excluded by more than one particle. The Haldane's statistics and Wu's distribution are recovered in the limit of non-correlated states of the multiple exclusion statistics. In addition, an exclusion spectrum function $\mathcal{G}(n)$ is introduced to account for the dependence of the state exclusion on the occupation-number $n$. Results of thermodynamics and state occupation are shown for ideal lattice gases of linear particles of size $k$ ($k$-mers) where multiple exclusion occurs. Remarkable agreement is found with Grand-Canonical Monte Carlo simulations from $k$=2 to 10 where multiple exclusion dominates as $k$ increases.
