We calculate the geometric phase associated to the evolution of a system subjected to decoherence through a quantum-jump approach. The method is general and can be applied to many different physical systems. As examples, two main source of…
Quantum operations by utilizing the underlying geometric phases produced in physical systems are favoured due to its potential robustness. When a system in a non-degenerate eigenstate undergoes an adiabatically cyclic evolution dominated by…
In presence of dissipation, quantal states may acquire complex-valued phase effects. We suggest a notion of dissipative interferometry that accommodates this complex-valued structure and that may serve as a tool for analyzing the effect of…

Large families of confining holographic QFTs, described by Einstein-Dilaton gravity, are considered on constant-curvature manifolds in the presence of a $\theta$-angle. The space of ground states of such theories is explored as a function…
Geometric phases, which accompany the evolution of a quantum system and depend only on its trajectory in state space, are commonly studied in two-level systems. Here, however, we study the adiabatic geometric phase in a weakly anharmonic…
We introduce the non-adiabatic, or Aharonov-Anandan, geometric phase as a tool for quantum computation and show how it could be implemented with superconducting charge qubits. While it may circumvent many of the drawbacks related to the…
Generalizing an earlier definition of the noncyclic geometric phase (R.Bhandari, Phys.Lett.A, 157, 221 (1991)), a nonmodular topological phase is defined with reference to a generic time-dependent two-slit interference experiment involving…
We extend the off-diagonal geometric phase [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 85}, 3067 (2000)] to mixed quantal states. The nodal structure of this phase in the qubit (two-level) case is compared with that of the diagonal mixed state geometric phase…
We report on the first experimental realization of optimal linear-optical controlled phase gates for arbitrary phases. The realized scheme is entirely flexible in that the phase shift can be tuned to any given value. All such controlled…
The concept of off-diagonal geometric phase (GP) has been introduced in order to recover interference information about the geometry of quantal evolution where the standard GPs are not well-defined. In this Letter, we propose a physical…
