Nodal free geometric phases: Concept and application to geometric quantum computation

Quantum Physics 2009-11-13 v2

Abstract

Nodal free geometric phases are the eigenvalues of the final member of a parallel transporting family of unitary operators. These phases are gauge invariant, always well-defined, and can be measured interferometrically. Nodal free geometric phases can be used to construct various types of quantum phase gates.
