چکیده
On the basis of the principle that topological quantum phases arise from the scattering around space-time defects in higher dimensional unification, a geometric model is presented that associates with each quantum phase an element of a transformation group.

Geometric Phases and Topological Quantum Computation
In the first part of this review we introduce the basics theory behind geometric phases and emphasize their importance in quantum theory. The subject is presented in a general way so as to illustrate its wide applicability, but we also introduce a number of examples that will help the reader understand the basic issues involved. In the second part we show how to perform a universal quantum comp...
متن کاملStudying Many-Body Physics through Quantum Coding Theory
The emerging closeness between correlated spin systems and error-correcting codes enables us to use coding theoretical techniques to study physical properties of manybody spin systems. This thesis illustrates the use of classical and quantum coding theory in classifying quantum phases arising in many-body spin systems via a systematic study of stabilizer Hamiltonians with translation symmetries...
متن کاملPairwise Entanglement and Geometric Phase in High Dimensional Free-Fermion Lattice Systems
The pairwise entanglement, measured by concurrence and geometric phase in high dimensional free-fermion lattice systems have been studied in this paper. When the system stays at the ground state, their derivatives with the external parameter show the singularity closed to the phase transition points, and can be used to detect the phase transition in this model. Furthermore our studies show for ...

متن کاملSome Aspects of Classical and Quantum Phases
We study classical and quantum phases in the adiabatic BornOppenheimer context. These include a classical astronomical case, the general dual description of the phases, a new “Paradox” connected to scattering Berry phase and its resolution and various elaboration of topological/geometrical/non-abelian phases.
