We use the Van Vleck-Primas perturbation theory to study the problem of parallel transport of the eigenvectors of a parameter-dependent Hamiltonian. The perturbative approach allows us to define a non-Abelian connection $\mathcal{A}$ that…
A spin-1/2 two-leg ladder with four-spin ring exchange is studied by quantized Berry phases, used as local order parameters. Reflecting local objects, non-trivial ($\pi$) Berry phase is founded on a rung for the rung-singlet phase and on a…

On the space ${\cal L}$, of loops in the group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of a symplectic quantizable manifold, we define a closed ${\bf Z}$-valued 1-form $\Omega$. If $\Omega$ vanishes, the prequantization map can be extended to a…
In this work, we study the connection between two subjects: the space of conformal boundary conditions in boundary conformal field theories (BCFTs) and the space of gapped systems characterized by higher Berry phases. We explore this…
A simple technique is used to obtain a general formula for the Berry phase (and the corresponding Hannay angle) for an arbitrary Hamiltonian with an equally-spaced spectrum and appropriate ladder operators connecting the eigenstates. The…
Berry curvature does not show itself in the relative phase correlation of wave-functions at different spatial points in a metal unless the fermions have closed trajectories in momentum space, for example those around isolated impurities.…
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,…
It has been recently found that the equations of motion of several semiclassical systems must take into account terms arising from Berry phases contributions. Those terms are responsible for the spin Hall effect in semiconductor as well as…
We extend the holographic duality between 3d pure gravity and the 2d Ising CFT proposed in [Phys. Rev. D 85 (2012) 024032] to CFTs with boundaries. Besides the usual asymptotic boundary, the dual bulk spacetime now has a real cutoff, on…
We consider magnetotransport on a helical edge of a quantum spin Hall insulator, in the presence of bulk midgap states ``side-coupled" to the edge. In the presence of a magnetic field, the midgap levels are spin-split, and hybridization of…

The topological phases of matter are characterized using the Berry phase, a geometrical phase, associated with the energy-momentum band structure. The quantization of the Berry phase, and the associated wavefunction polarization, manifest…
We construct operators in holographic two-dimensional conformal field theory, which act locally in the code subspace as arbitrary bulk spacelike vector fields. Key to the construction is an interplay between parallel transport in the bulk…
