i
For identical bosons the full wave function is symmetric under the particle exchange operator:
ψ(x2​,x1​)=ψ(x1​,x2​).​
(1)
In the given position-only model this is the spatial parity under the particle exchange operator. If additional spin variables are present, the symmetry applies to the complete state including them.
