This paper is concerned with the physics of parametrized gapped quantum many-body systems, which can be viewed as a generalization of conventional topological phases of matter. In such systems, rather than considering a single Hamiltonian,…
A ``dilute'' generalisation of the Birman--Wenzl--Murakami algebra is considered. It can be ``Baxterised'' to a solution of the Yang--Baxter algebra. The $D^{(2)}_{n+1}$ vertex models are examples of corresponding solvable lattice models…
We establish a connection between two recently-proposed approaches to the understanding of the geometric origin of the Fu-Kane-Mele invariant $\mathrm{FKM} \in \mathbb{Z}_2$, arising in the context of 2-dimensional time-reversal symmetric…
In this paper we develop a general method to obtain the Berry phase of time-dependent Hamiltonians with a linear structure given in terms of the $SU(1,1)$ and $SU(2)$ groups. This method is based on the similarity transformations of the…
Within the framework of exact quantum electrodynamics in dielectric, we study the topological Berry phase of a classically pumped $\Lambda$-type three-level atom, prepared initially in a superposition of its two pumped levels and located…
We show that the cyclotomic Birman-Wenzl-Murakami algebras are cellular by producing a cellular basis of affine tangle diagrams.
A representation of the Birman-Wenzl-Murakami algebra BW_{t}(-q^{2n},q) exists in the centraliser algebra End_{U_q(osp(1|2n))}(V^{\otimes t}), where V is the fundamental (2n+1)-dimensional irreducible U_{q}(osp(1|2n))-module. This…
Within the semiclassical approach, we calculate contributions of the Berry phase and of the Zeeman coupling of the electron moment with the magnetic field to the phase of the Shubnikov - de Haas oscillations for the surface electrons in the…
There is considerable evidence, based on large $N_c$ chiral dynamics, holographic QCD, and Monte Carlo studies, that the QCD vacuum is permeated by discrete quasivacua separated by domain walls across which the local value of the…
Quantum mechanical phases arising from a periodically varying Hamiltonian are considered. These phases are derived from the eigenvalues of a stationary, ``dressed'' Hamiltonian that is able to treat internal atomic or molecular structure in…
We show the presence of a topological (Berry) phase in the time evolution of a mixed state. For the case of mixed neutrinos, the Berry phase is a function of the mixing angle only.
It is known that in the WKB approximation of multicomponent systems like Dirac equation or Born-Oppenheimer approximation, an additional phase appears apart from the Berry phase. So far, this phase was only examined in special cases, or…
In this paper we first present a Birman-Murakami-Wenzl type algebra for every Coxeter system of rank 2 (corresponding to dihedral groups). We prove they have semisimple for generic parameters, and having natural cellular structures. And…
A three-dimensional anisotropic quantum well placed in an adiabatically precessing uniform magnetic field is considered and an explicit formula for the Berry phase is obtained. To get the Berry phase, a purely algebraic algorithm of…
We propose a realization of higher-order topological phases in a spring-mass model with a breathing kagome structure. To demonstrate the existence of the higher-order topological phases, we characterize the topological properties and show…
A family of finite-dimensional quantum systems with a non-degenerate ground state gives rise to a closed 2-form on the parameter space: the curvature of the Berry connection. Its cohomology class is a topological invariant of the family. We…
