چکیده
We develop the formulation of the spin(SU(2)) coherent state path integrals based on arbitrary fiducial vectors. The resultant action in the path integral expression extensively depends on the vector; It differs from the conventional one in that it has a generalized form having some additional terms. We also study, as physical applications, the geometric phases associated with the coherent state path integrals to find that new effects of the terms may appear in experiments. We see that the formalism gives a clear insight into geometric phases.

We outline the principal results of a recent examination of the quantization of systems with firstand second-class constraints from the point of view of coherent-state phase-space path integration. Two examples serve to illustrate the procedures.

The adiabatic geometric phases for general three state systems are discussed. An explicit parameterization for space of states of these systems is given. The abelian and non-abelian connection one-forms or vector potentials that would appear in a three dimensional quantum system with adiabatic characteristics are given explicitly. This is done in terms of the Euler angle parameterization of SU(...

The spin coherent state path integral describing the dynamics of a spin-12system in a magnetic field of arbitrary time-dependence is considered. Defining the path integral as the limit of a Wiener regularized expression, the semiclassical approximation leads to a continuous minimal action path with jumps at the endpoints. The resulting semiclassical propagator is shown to coincide with the exac...

Adiabatic evolutions with a gap condition have, under a range of circumstances, exponentially small tails that describe the leaking out of the spectral subspace. Adiabatic evolutions without a gap condition do not seem to have this feature in general. This is a known fact for eigenvalue crossing. We show that this is also the case for eigenvalues at the threshold of the continuous spectrum by c...
