In this paper we study the quantum phase properties of {\it "nonlinear coherent states"} and {\it "solvable quantum systems with discrete spectra"} using the Pegg-Barnett formalism in a unified approach. The presented procedure will then be…
In the quantum-computation scenario, geometric phase-gates are becoming increasingly attractive for their intrinsic fault tolerance to disturbance. With an adiabatic cyclic evolution, Berry phase appears to realize a geometric…
We study QED$_4$ in the adiabatic approximation, incorporating global topological effects associated with the $U(1)$ Berry connection. The Berry phase accumulated by the fermionic vacuum is given by $\Delta \alpha = \oint_{\mathcal{C}}…
The topological Euler characteristic number of the energy band proposed in our previous work (see Yu-Quan Ma et al., arXiv:1202.2397; EPL 103, 10008 (2013)) has been recently experimentally observed by X. Tan et al., Phys. Rev. Lett.…
In quantum mechanics it is often required to describe in a semiclassical approximation the motion of particles moving within a given energy band. Such a representation leads to the appearance of an analogues of fictitious forces in the…
Berry phase plays an important role in determining many physical properties of quantum systems. However, a Berry phase altering energy spectrum of a quantum system is comparatively rare. Here, we report an unusual tunable valley polarized…
The importance of the quantum metric in flat-band systems has been noticed recently in many contexts such as the superfluid stiffness, the dc electrical conductivity, and ideal Chern insulators. Both the quantum metric of degenerate and…
We study a two-dimensional charged particle interacting with a magnetic field, in general non-homogeneous, perpendicular to the plane, a confining potential, and a point interaction. If the latter moves adiabatically along a loop the state…
The apparent randomness of chaotic eigenstates in interacting quantum systems hides subtle correlations dynamically imposed by their finite energy per particle. These correlations are revealed when Berrys approach for chaotic eigenfunctions…
In this note, we attempt to provide some insights into the structure of non-perturbative descriptions of quantum gravity using known examples of gauge-theory / gravity duality. We argue that in familiar examples, a quantum description of…
Quantum mechanics on sphere $S^{n}$ is studied from the viewpoint that the Berry's connection has to appear as a topological term in the effective action. Furthermore we show that this term is the Chern-Simons term of gauge variables that…
Beyond the well-known topological band theory for single-particle systems, it is a great challenge to characterize the topological nature of interacting multi-particle quantum systems. Here, we uncover the relation between topological…
We introduce a novel measure to quantify the non-Gaussian character of a quantum state: the quantum relative entropy between the state under examination and a reference Gaussian state. We analyze in details the properties of our measure and…
A new realist interpretation of quantum mechanics is introduced. Quantum systems are shown to have two kinds of properties: the usual ones described by values of quantum observables, which are called extrinsic, and those that can be…
In one spatial dimension, families of short-range entangled many-body quantum states, parameterized over some parameter space, can be topologically distinguished and classified by topological invariants built from the higher Berry phase --…
We show that the impact of the fundamental length in quantum mechanics can be studied within the formalism of Berry's geometrical phase with the line broadening as a resulting physical effect.
Berry's phase often appears in quantum two-level systems with a degeneracy. An example of such a system is a spin-1/2 particle in a magnetic field. As the magnetic field is slowly evolved through a closed path, the particle has been shown…
We introduce the perturbative aspects of noncommutative quantum mechanics. Then we study the Berry's phase in the framework of noncommutative quantum mechanics. The results show deviations from the usual quantum mechanics which depend on…
The effect of inter-subsystem couplings on the Berry phase of a composite system as well as that of its subsystem is investigated in this paper. We analyze two coupled spin-$\frac 1 2 $ particles with one driven by a quantized field as an…
We introduce a novel gauge-invariant, quantized interband index in two-dimensional (2D) multiband systems. It provides a bulk topological classification of a submanifold of parameter space (e.g., an electron valley in a Brillouin zone), and…
