  We study the impact of the inter-level energy constraints imposed by Haldane
Exclusion Statistics on relaxation processes in 1-dimensional systems coupled
to a bosonic bath. By formulating a second-quantized description of the
relevant Fock space, we identify certain universal features of this relaxation
dynamics, and show that it is generically slower than that of spinless
fermions. Our study focuses on the Calogero-Sutherland model, which realizes
Haldane Exclusion statistics exactly in one dimension; however our results
apply to any system that has the associated pattern of inter-level occupancy
constraints in Fock space.
