• Abstract: In Hilbert space, the geometry of the quantum state is identified by the quantum geometric tensor (QGT), whose imaginary part is the Berry curvature and real part is the quantum metric tensor. Here, we propose and experimentally implement a complete Bloch state tomography to directly measure eigenfunction of an optical Raman lattice for ultracold atoms. Through the measured eigenfunction, the distribution of the complete QGT in the Brillouin zone is reconstructed, with which the topological invariants are extracted by the Berry curvature and the distances of quantum states in momentum space are measured by the quantum metric tensor. Further, we experimentally test a predicted inequality between the Berry curvature and quantum metric tensor, which reveals a deep connection between topology and geometry.

We show that the geometric phase of the most likely trajectories undergoes a topological transition for self-closing trajectories as a function of the measurement strength parameter.

  We propose a quantum version of the Frenet-Serret apparatus for a quantum trajectory in projective Hilbert space. Our proposed constant curvature coefficient is given by the magnitude squared of the covariant derivative of the tangent vector to the state vector. Our proposed constant torsion coefficient is defined in terms of the magnitude squared of the projection of the covariant derivative of the tangent vector.

• Generalized quantum geometric tensor for excited states using the path integral approach [0.0]
  The quantum geometric tensor encodes the parameter space geometry of a physical system. We first provide a formulation of the quantum geometrical tensor in the path integral formalism that can handle both the ground and excited states. We then generalize the quantum geometric tensor to incorporate variations of the system parameters and the phase-space coordinates.

  Weak measurements in particular, through their back-action on the system, may enable various levels of coherent control. We measure the geometric phases induced by sequences of weak measurements and demonstrate a topological transition in the geometric phase controlled by measurement strength. Our results open new horizons for measurement-enabled quantum control of many-body topological states.

  We study the phenomenon of transmission across the singularity that separates the two half-cylinders. All the local realisations of the free (Laplace-Beltrami) quantum Hamiltonian are examined as non-equivalent protocols of transmission/reflection. This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.

  Quantum Hall systems are characterized by the quantization of the Hall conductance -- a bulk property rooted in the topological structure of the underlying quantum states. Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
