We propose a method for analyzing Berry phase for a multi-qubit system of superconducting charge qubits interacting with a microwave field. By suitably choosing the system parameters and precisely controlling the dynamics, novel connection…

In a recent paper [PRE 62, 4665 (2000)] (quant-ph/0203102) Manfredi and Feix proposed an alternative definition of quantum entropy based on Wigner phase-space distribution functions and discussed its properties. They proposed also some…

The Berry phase is analyzed for Weyl and Dirac fermions in a phase space representation of the worldline formalism. Kinetic theories are constructed for both at a classical level. Whereas the Weyl fermion case reduces in dimension,…
