One-dimensional anyonic models of the Hubbard type show intriguing ground-state properties, effectively transmuting between Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics. The simplest model that one can investigate is an anyonic version of the bosonic Josephson junction, the repulsive anyon-Hubbard dimer. In the following we find an exact duality relation to the Bethe-solvable Bose-Hubbard dimer, which is well known from quantum optics and information theory and has interesting connections to spin squeezing and entangled coherent states. Conversely, we show that the anyonic Hubbard dimer has nontrivial coherence properties that emerge from the anyonic statistics. In particular, we find that coherences can be suppressed and amplified and show that these features are remarkably robust against additional repulsive on-site interactions highlighting the distinct nature of anyons.
