It is shown that the molecular Aharonov-Bohm effect is neither nonlocal nor topological in the sense of the standard magnetic Aharonov-Bohm effect. It is further argued that there is a close relationship between the molecular Aharonov-Bohm…
We establish systematic consolidation of the Aharonov-Bohm and Aharonov-Casher effects including their scalar counterparts. Their formal correspondences in acquiring topological phases are revealed on the basis of the gauge symmetry in…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is a physical phenomenon in which the quantum state of a charged particle acquires a phase shift that is directly proportional to the magnetic flux, $\Phi$, due to a (classical) magnetic field, ${\mathbf B}$, which…
The original topological Aharonov-Casher (AC) effect is due to the interaction of the anomalous magnetic dipole moment (MDM) with certain configurations of electric field. Naively one would not expect an AC effect for a scalar particle for…
The possibility of detecting noncommutive space relics is analyzed by using the Aharonov-Bohm effect. If space is non-commutative, it turns out that the holonomy receives kinematical corrections that tend to diffuse the fringe pattern. This…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect including spin-noncommutative effects is considered. At linear order in $\theta$, the magnetic field is gauge invariant although spatially strongly anisotropic. Despite this anisotropy, the Schr\"odinger-Pauli…
We study the Aharonov-Casher (AC) effect and the related He-McKellar-Wilkens (HMW) effect in 2+1 dimensions. In this restricted space these effects are the result of the interaction of the electromagnetic field tensor with the dual of a…
We show that the standard Dirac phase factor is not the only solution of the gauge transformation equations. The full form of a general gauge function (that connects systems that move in different sets of scalar and vector potentials),…
The Dirac approach to constrained systems can be adapted to construct relativistic invariant theories on a noncommutative (NC) space. As an example, we propose and discuss relativistic invariant NC particle coupled to electromagnetic field…
In this paper, we study the influence of topological and noninertial effects on a Dirac particle confined in an Aharonov-Bohm (AB) ring. Next, we explicitly determine the Dirac spinor and the energy spectrum for the relativistic bound…
The Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect is considered in the context of Generalized Electrodynamics (GE) by Podolsky and Bopp. GE is the only extension to Maxwell electrodynamics that is locally {\normalsize{}U(1)}-gauge invariant, admits linear…
In this paper we have studied a new form of Non-Commutative (NC) phase space with an operatorial form of noncommutativity. A point particle in this space feels the effect of an interaction with an "{\it{internal}}" magnetic field, that is…
We predict the force-free scalar Aharonov-Bohm effect of a Cooper pair box in an electric field at a distance without forming a closed path of the interfering charges. The superposition of different charge states plays a major role in…
We study a system of electrons moving on a noncommutative plane in the presence of an external magnetic field which is perpendicular to this plane. For generality we assume that the coordinates and the momenta are both noncommutative. We…
The Aharanov-Bohm (AB) effect, which predicts that a magnetic field strongly influences the wave function of an electrically charged particle, is investigated in a three site system in terms of the quantum control by an additional dephasing…
Self-intersecting energy band structures in momentum space can be induced by nonlinearity at the mean-field level, with the so-called nonlinear Dirac cones as one intriguing consequence. Using the Qi-Wu-Zhang model plus power law…

We propose an electrodynamic Aharonov-Bohm (AB) scheme where a nonzero AB phase difference appears even if the interferometer paths do not enclose a magnetic flux and are subjected to negligible scalar potential differences during the…
The time reversal Aharonov-Casher (AC) interference effect in the mesoscopic ring structures, based on the experiment in Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{97}, 196803 (2006), is studied theoretically. The transmission curves are calculated from the…
The Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect has been highly influential in fundamental and applied physics. Its topological nature commonly implies that an electron encircling a magnetic flux source in a field-free region must close the loop in order to…
