  2. Berry connection and curvature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berry_connection_and_curvature

    In a three-dimensional parameter space the Berry curvature can be written in the pseudovector form = (). The tensor and pseudovector forms of the Berry curvature are related to each other through the Levi-Civita antisymmetric tensor as Ω n , μ ν = ϵ μ ν ξ Ω n , ξ {\displaystyle \Omega _{n,\mu \nu }=\epsilon _{\mu \nu \xi }\,\mathbf ...

  3. Geometric phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_phase

    There are several important aspects of this generalization of Berry's phase: 1) Instead of the parameter space for the original Berry phase, this Ning-Haken generalization is defined in phase space; 2) Instead of the adiabatic evolution in quantum mechanical system, the evolution of the system in phase space needs not to be adiabatic.

  4. Hannay angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannay_angle

    The Hannay angle is defined in the context of action-angle coordinates.In an initially time-invariant system, an action variable is a constant. After introducing a periodic perturbation (), the action variable becomes an adiabatic invariant, and the Hannay angle for its corresponding angle variable can be calculated according to the path integral that represents an evolution in which the ...

  5. Berry mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berry_mechanism

    Trigonal bipyramidal molecular shape ax = axial ligands (on unique axis) eq = equatorial ligand (in plane perpendicular to unique axis). The Berry mechanism, or Berry pseudorotation mechanism, is a type of vibration causing molecules of certain geometries to isomerize by exchanging the two axial ligands (see the figure) for two of the equatorial ones.

  6. Godunov's scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godunov's_scheme

    One can think of this method as a conservative finite volume method which solves exact, or approximate Riemann problems at each inter-cell boundary. In its basic form, Godunov's method is first order accurate in both space and time, yet can be used as a base scheme for developing higher-order methods.

  7. Superformula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superformula

    The superformula is a generalization of the superellipse and was proposed by Johan Gielis in 2003. [1] Gielis suggested that the formula can be used to describe many complex shapes and curves that are found in nature.

  9. Boltzmann equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann_equation

    It is not a priori clear that the state of a quantum system can be characterized by a classical phase space density f. However, for a wide class of applications a well-defined generalization of f exists which is the solution of an effective Boltzmann equation that can be derived from first principles of quantum field theory.
