时反不变系统的非阿贝尔Berry相位量子化

Quantization of non-Abelian Berry phase for time reversal invariant systems

T. Fukui, T. Fujiwara

摘要:

我们提出了一种量子化的非阿贝尔Berry相位的时间反演不变系统,如量子自旋霍尔效应。普通的Berry相是由Berry规范势沿一个环的积分(Chern-Simons单形式的积分)定义的,而我们提出一个类似的但在五维参数空间上的积分(Chern-Simons五形式的积分)适合于定义一个非阿贝尔Berry相。我们研究了它的全局拓扑方面,并表明它确实是量化成两个值。我们还讨论了它与非微扰异常的密切关系。

英文摘要:

We present a quantized non-Abelian Berry phase for time reversal invariant systems such as quantum spin Hall effect. Ordinary Berry phase is defined by an integral of Berry's gauge potential along a loop (an integral of the Chern-Simons one-form), whereas we propose that a similar integral but over five dimensional parameter space (an integral of the Chern-Simons five-form) is suitable to define a non-Abelian Berry phase. We study its global topological aspects and show that it is indeed quantized into two values. We also discuss its close relationship with the nonperturbative anomalies.
