Geometric phases for mixed states in interferometry.
We provide a physical prescription based on interferometry for introducing the total phase of a mixed state undergoing unitary evolution, which has been an elusive concept in the past. We define the parallel transport condition that provides a connection form for obtaining the geometric phase for mixed states. The expression for the geometric phase for mixed state reduces to well known formulas...
متن کاملGeometric phases for mixed states and decoherence
The gauge invariance of geometric phases for mixed states is analyzed by using the hidden local gauge symmetry which arises from the arbitrariness of the choice of the basis set defining the coordinates in the functional space. This approach gives a reformulation of the past results of adiabatic, non-adiabatic and mixed state geometric phases. The geometric phases are identified uniquely as the...
متن کاملA representation for some groups, a geometric approach
In the present paper, we are going to use geometric and topological concepts, entities and properties of the integral curves of linear vector fields, and the theory of differential equations, to establish a representation for some groups on $R^{n} (ngeq 1)$. Among other things, we investigate the surjectivity and faithfulness of the representation. At the end, we give some app...
متن کاملTracking Control: A Differential Geometric Approach
Tracking a trajectory is a demanding task when flexible robots are being considered. To tackle this problem this paper introduces a model-based differential geometric approach. In the design process a control structure will be proposed that allows the choice of an arbitrary dynamic response of the controlled system within certain limits. The result is a complex feedback structure with inherent ...
متن کاملExtracting Curvilinear Structures: A Differential Geometric Approach
In this paper a method to extract curvilinear structures from digital images is presented. The approach is based on differential geometric properties of the image function. For each pixel, the second order Taylor polynomial is computed by convolving the image with the derivatives of a Gaussian smoothing kernel. Line points are required to have a vanishing gradient and a high curvature in the di...
