چکیده

The Aharonov-Anandan phase is introduced from a physical point of view. Without reference to any dynamical equation, this phase is formulated by defining an appropriate connection on a specific fibre bundle. The holonomy element gives the phase. By introducing another connection, the Pancharatnam phase formula is derived following a different procedure.

Abelian and non-Abelian geometric phases in adiabatic open quantum systems

We introduce a self-consistent framework for the analysis of both Abelian and non-Abelian geometric phases associated with open quantum systems, undergoing cyclic adiabatic evolution. We derive a general expression for geometric phases, based on an adiabatic approximation developed within an inherently open-systems approach. This expression provides a natural generalization of the analogous one...

About Geometric Phases Serving as Memory in Quantum Computing Spacetime Memory: Phase-Locked Geometric Phases

Spacetime memory is defined with a holonomic approach to information processing, where multi-state stability is introduced by a non-linear phase-locked loop. Geometric phases serve as the carrier of physical information and geometric memory (of orientation) given by a path integral measure of curvature that is periodically refreshed. Regarding the resulting spin-orbit coupling and gauge field, ...

Geometric Phases for SU(3) Representations and Three Level Quantum Systems

A comprehensive analysis of the pattern of geometric phases arising in unitary representations of the group SU(3) is presented. The structure of the group manifold, convenient local coordinate systems and their overlaps, and complete expressions for the Maurer—Cartan forms are described. Combined with a listing of all inequivalent continuous subgroups of SC/(3) and the general properties of dyn...

Nodal free geometric phases: Concept and application to geometric quantum computation

Nodal free geometric phases are the eigenvalues of the final member of a parallel transporting family of unitary operators. These phases are gauge invariant, always well-defined, and can be measured interferometrically. Nodal free geometric phases can be used to construct various types of quantum phase gates.

Topological properties of Berry’s phase

By using a second quantized formulation of level crossing, which does not assume adiabatic approximation, a convenient formula for geometric terms including offdiagonal terms is derived. The analysis of geometric phases is reduced to a simple diagonalization of the Hamiltonian in the present formulation. If one diagonalizes the geometric terms in the infinitesimal neighborhood of level crossing...
