Abstract
Second quantization is studied. Creation and annihilation operators ar e shown to be related on the same basis to both the algebra h(1) and t o the superalgebra osp(1/2) which are shown to be compatible with both Bose and Fermi statistics. The two algebras are completely equivalent in the one-mode sector but, because of the grading of osp(1/2), diffe r in the many-particle case. The possibility of an unorthodox quantum field theory is suggested.
