dc.description.abstract	the electron-hole pair operator commutation relations for a semiconductor are explicitly derived showing that the pairs are quasi-bosons with statistics intermediate between bosons and fermions. these pair operators are transformed into exciton operators, that incorporate the intra-pair coulomb interaction, and it is found that the commutation relations remain quasi-bosonic. the exciton dynamics written in terms of the exciton operators are derived in the heisenberg picture and compared with the traditionally used semiconductor bloch equations.
