N1 - We dedicate this paper to the memory of Markus Buttiker. His valuable and insightful contributions to the study of edge states in the quantum Hall effect and his long lasting involvement in theoretical developments in the field make us hope that he would find the subject we present of interest. We are grateful to Angela Kou and Charles Marcus for instructive discussions.

N2 - We study quantum Hall interferometers in which the interference loop encircles a quantum anti-dot. We base our study on thermodynamic considerations, which we believe reflect the essential aspects of interference transport phenomena. We find that similar to the more conventional Fabry-Perot quantum Hall interferometers, in which the interference loop forms a quantum dot, the anti-dot interferometer is affected by the electro-static Coulomb interaction between the edge modes defining the loop. We show that in the Aharonov-Bohm regime, in which effects of fractional statistics should be visible, is easier to access in interferometers based on anti-dots than in those based on dots. We discuss the relevance of our results to recent measurements on anti-dots interferometers.
