Title: Geometry of quantum systems and non-adiabatic response
Abstract:
I will discuss how quantum geometry encoded in the Berry curvature and the
Fubini-Study metric tensor can be used for characterization of phases and
phase transitions and how it is related to dynamical response coefficients:
Coriolis force and the inertia mass.
