Non-Abelian geometric phases form the foundation of fault-tolerant holonomic quantum computation. An "all-geometric" approach leveraging these phases enables robust unitary operations in condensed matter systems. Photonics, with rich…
The perturbation expansion for a general class of many-fermion systems with a non-nested, non-spherical Fermi surface is renormalized to all orders. In the limit as the infrared cutoff is removed, the counterterms converge to a finite limit…
