Phase-Space Approach to Berry Phases

  • Published:
Open Systems & Information Dynamics

Abstract

We propose a new formula for the adiabatic Berry phase which is based on phase-space formulation of quantum mechanics.This approach sheds a new light onto the correspon-dence between classical and quantum adiabatic phases – both phases are related with the av-eraging procedure:Hannay angle with averaging over the classical torus and Berry phase with averaging over the entire classical phase space with respect to the corresponding Wigner function.
