Abstract
The injection and shift currents are generalized to the th-order injection and shift currents for the longitudinal conductivities in the two-band model, where is the power of the applied electric field. In addition, the formulas for the higher-order injection current are expressed in terms of the quantum metric and the higher-order shift current in terms of the higher-order quantum connection. Then, they are applied to -wave magnets. It is shown that the injection and shift currents are zero. On the other hand, the th-order injection and shift currents with odd are nonzero when the direction of the N\'{e}el vector of the -wave magnet points to an in-plane direction.
