While a pure quantum state may accumulate both the Berry phase and dynamic phase as it undergoes a cyclic path in the parameter space, the situation is more complicated when mixed quantum states are considered. From the Ulhmann bundle, a…
Quantum chaos---the study of quantized nonintegrable Hamiltonian systems---is an extremely well-developed and sophisticated field. By contrast, very little work has been done in looking at quantum versions of systems which classically…
We prove that there is off-diagonal long-range order in the symmetrised version of the one-dimensional many-body problem presented by Jain and Khare (Phys. Lett. A262 (1999)35). This model is related to the short-range Dyson model employed…
