Berry's Phase, TKN$^2$ Integers and All That: My work on Topology in Condensed Matter

Barry Simon (Caltech)

19-Oct-2020, 12:00-13:00 (3 years ago)

Abstract: I will give an overview of my work on topological methods in condensed matter physics almost 40 years ago. Include will be Homotopy and TKN$^2$ integers, holonomy and Berry's phase and quarternions and Berry's phase for Fermions. If time allows, I'll discuss supersymmetry and pairs of projections.
