量子态的几何是一个基础研究领域，其应用范围从凝聚态中的能带理论到量子信息中的变分算法。由于相对简单，人们通常研究纯态，而一般情况下需要混合态，例如考虑有限温度时。然而，混合态的几何更具挑战性，许多重要方面有待探索。在此，我们通过确定一般（混合或纯）量子态的距离度量与曲率之间关联的结构，填补了这一空白。该结构被证明具有涨落-耗散的物理意义——它将距离度量与涨落直接关联，曲率与线性响应直接关联，且仅在纯态时才会成为著名的凯勒（Kähler）结构。因此，我们获得了一个通用、简单的涨落-耗散图像，其推论包括响应函数本质上探测混合态量子几何张量。最后，我们利用该图像对一般输运行为给出几何表征。
英文摘要
The geometry of quantum states is a fundamental research area with applications ranging from band theory in condensed matter to variational algorithms in quantum information. Due to their relative simplicity, pure states are usually studied, while mixed ones are needed in general, for instance to allow for finite temperatures. The geometry of mixed states, however, is much more challenging, with important aspects yet to be explored. Here, we provide one missing piece by identifying the structure that relates distance measure and curvature for general (mixed or pure) quantum states. This structure is shown to carry the physical meaning of fluctuation-dissipation---by directly relating distance measure with fluctuations and curvature with linear response---and it turns into the corresponding well-known structure for pure states, where it is Kähler, and only then. We thus obtain a general, simple fluctuation-dissipation picture, which, among its consequences, implies that response functions inherently probe the mixed-state quantum geometric tensor. We end by using this picture to give geometric characterizations of generic transport behaviors.
