We consider a two-level system coupled to a highly non-Markovian environment when the coupling axis rotates with time. The environment may be quantum (for example a bosonic bath or a spin bath) or classical (such as classical noise). We…
Berry phases offer a geometric perspective on wave propagation and are key to designing materials with topological wave transport. However, controlling Berry phases is challenging due to their dependence on global integrals over the…
