The phase of quantum magneto-oscillations is often associated with the Berry phase and is widely used to argue in favor of topological nontriviality of the system (Berry phase $2\pi n+\pi$). Nevertheless, the experimentally determined value…
When a quantum field theory is trivially gapped, its infrared fixed point is an invertible field theory. The partition function of the invertible field theory records the response to various background fields in the long-distance limit. The…
We study the role of different orientations of an applied magnetic field as well as the interplay of structural asymmetries on the characteristics of eigenstates in a quantum ring system. We use a nearly analytical model description of the…
We present a quantum open-system approach to analyze the nonunitary dynamics of a superconducting qubit when it evolves under the influence of external noise. We consider the presence of longitudinal and transverse environmental…
We have shown that the study of topological aspects of the underlying geometry in a ferromagnetic spin system gives rise to an intrinsic Berry phase. This real space Berry phase arises due to the spin rotations of conducting electrons which…
The dynamical effects of topological charge in two-dimensional QED can be expressed in terms of a topological order parameter via a Berry phase construction. The Berry phase describes the electric charge polarization of the vacuum in a…
We explain why and how the Hilbert space comes about in quantum theory. The axiomatic structures of vector space, of scalar product, of orthogonality, and of the linear functional are derivable from the statistical description of quantum…
A quantum theory in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space can be geometrically formulated as a proper Hamiltonian theory as explained in [2, 3, 7, 8]. From this point of view a quantum system can be described in a classical-like framework…
One milestone in quantum physics is Berry's seminal work [Proc.~R.~Soc.~Lond.~A \textbf{392}, 45 (1984)], in which a quantal phase factor known as geometric phase was discovered to solely depend on the evolution path in state space. Here,…
We examine Berry phase pertaining to purely quadrupolar state ($\langle \psi | \vec{S} | \psi \rangle = 0$) of a spin-$1$ system. Using the Majorana stellar representation of these states, we provide a visualization for the topological…
We derive closed analytical expressions for the complex Berry phase of an open quantum system in a state which is a superposition of resonant states and evolves irreversibly due to the spontaneous decay of the metastable states. The…
The physics of a quantum dot with electron-electron interactions is well captured by the so called "Universal Hamiltonian" if the dimensionless conductance of the dot is much higher than unity. Within this scheme interactions are…
The theoretical identification of crystalline topological materials has enjoyed sustained success in simplified materials models, often by singling out discrete symmetry operations protecting the topological phase. When band structure…
We present both the gauge theoretic description and the numerical calculations of the Berry phases with the real eigenstates, involving one with a many-body system as a background and the other with no such background. We demonstrate that…
We have studied here the newly observed families of fractional quantum Hall states in the framework of Berry phase. It has been shown that this approach embraces in a unified way the whole spectrum of quantum Hall states with their various…
We investigate the quantization of the complex-valued Berry phases in non-Hermitian quantum systems with certain generalized symmetries. In Hermitian quantum systems, the real-valued Berry phase is known to be quantized in the presence of…
This paper presents an alternative approach to geometric phases from the observable point of view. Precisely, we introduce the notion of observable-geometric phases, which is defined as a sequence of phases associated with a complete set of…
We study the total (dynamical plus geometrical (Berry)) phase of cyclic quantum motion for coherent states over homogeneous K\"ahler manifolds X=G/H, which can be considered as the phase spaces of classical systems and which are, in…
The usual concepts of topological physics, such as the Berry curvature, cannot be applied directly to non-Hermitian systems. We show that another object, the quantum metric, which often plays a secondary role in Hermitian systems, becomes a…
The rigid rotor is a classic problem in quantum mechanics, describing the dynamics of a rigid body with its centre of mass held fixed. The configuration space of this problem is $SO(3)$, the space of all rotations in three dimensions. This…
