Geometric Phases in Classical and Quantum Mechanics

By Andrzej Jamiolkowski and Dariusz Chruscinski

Book Overview

Several well-established geometric and topological methods are used in this work in an application to a beautiful physical phenomenon known as the geometric phase. This book examines the geometric phase, bringing together different physical phenomena under a unified mathematical scheme. The material is presented so that graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics and physics with an understanding of classical and quantum mechanics can handle the text.
