On Non-Abelian Holonomies
نویسنده
چکیده
We provide a method and the results for the calculation of the holonomy of a Yang-Mills connection in an arbitrary triangular path, in an expansion (developed here to fifth order) in powers of the corresponding segments. The results might have applications in generalizing to Yang-Mills fields previous calculations of the corrections to particle dynamics induced by loop quantum gravity, as well as in the field of random lattices.

Manifestations of quantum holonomy in interferometry
Abelian and non-Abelian geometric phases, known as quantum holonomies, have attracted considerable attention in the past. Here, we show that it is possible to associate nonequivalent holonomies to discrete sequences of subspaces in a Hilbert space. We consider two such holonomies that arise naturally in interferometer settings. For sequences approximating smooth paths in the base (Grassmann) ma...
متن کاملNon-Abelian superconducting pumps.
Cooper pair pumping is a coherent process. We derive a general expression for the adiabatic pumped charge in superconducting nanocircuits in the presence of level degeneracy and relate it to non-Abelian holonomies of Wilczek and Zee. We discuss an experimental system where the non-Abelian structure of the adiabatic evolution manifests in the pumped charge.
متن کاملClosed non-abelian strings
With the aim of finding a framework for describing (2, 0) theory, we propose a non-abelian gerbe with surface holonomies that can parallel transport closed strings only. [email protected]
متن کاملFast non-Abelian geometric gates via transitionless quantum driving
A practical quantum computer must be capable of performing high fidelity quantum gates on a set of quantum bits (qubits). In the presence of noise, the realization of such gates poses daunting challenges. Geometric phases, which possess intrinsic noise-tolerant features, hold the promise for performing robust quantum computation. In particular, quantum holonomies, i.e., non-Abelian geometric ph...
متن کاملMathematical Structure of Loop Quantum Cosmology: Homogeneous Models
The mathematical structure of homogeneous loop quantum cosmology is analyzed, starting with and taking into account the general classification of homogeneous connections not restricted to be Abelian. As a first consequence, it is seen that the usual approach of quantizing Abelian models using spaces of functions on the Bohr compactification of the real line does not capture all properties of ho...
متن کاملNon-Abelian Gerbes from Strings on a Branched Space-Time
As superstring solitons that carry Neuveu–Schwarz charge can be described in terms of gerbes, one expects non-Abelian gerbes to appear e.g. in the exotic six-dimensional world-volume theories of coinciding NS5 branes. We consider open bosonic strings on a space-time that is branched in such a way that the B-field is provided with the same Lie algebra structure as the world-volume gauge field on...
