We present a new perspective on bulk reconstruction using Berry phases in the boundary CFT. Our parallel transport of modular Hamiltonians is associated to a trajectory in the space of states, which we obtain from the insertion of a source…
In the modern theory of polarization, polarization itself is given by a geometric phase. In calculations for interacting systems the polarization and its variance are obtained from the polarization amplitude. We interpret this quantity as a…
The propagation of electromagnetic waves in an unmagnetized weakly inhomogeneous cold plasma is examined. We show that the inhomogeneity induces a gauge connection term in wave equation, which gives rise to Berry effects in the dynamics of…
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,…

We present a method that generalises the standard mean field theory of correlated lattice bosons to include amplitude and phase fluctuations of the $U(1)$ field that induces onsite particle number mixing. This arises formally from an…
One of the fundamental results of semiclassical theory is the existence of trace formulae showing how spectra of quantum mechanical systems emerge from massive interference among amplitudes related with time-periodic structures of the…
It is nowadays a quite diffuse idea that variations of electronic polarisation, as introduced by Resta[1], in condensed matter theory are related to a "Berry phase"[2], as shown by Vanderbilt. The derivation of the latter geometric phase is…
For pure states, the quantum Berry curvature was well studied. However, the quantum curvature for mixed states has received less attention. From the concept of symmetric logarithmic derivative, we introduce a mixed-state quantum curvature…
