Berry's phase often appears in quantum two-level systems with a degeneracy. An example of such a system is a spin-1/2 particle in a magnetic field. As the magnetic field is slowly evolved through a closed path, the particle has been shown…

Phase space is the state space of classical mechanics, and this manifold is normally endowed only with a symplectic form. The geometry of quantum mechanics is necessarily more complicated. Arguments will be given to show that augmenting the…
