- Abstract summary: We propose a scheme for measuring topological properties in a two-photon-driven Kerr-nonlinear resonator (KNR) subjected to a single-photon modulation.
The topological properties are revealed through the observation of the Berry curvature and hence the first Chern number.
The scheme, with such continuous variable states in mesoscpic systems, provides a new perspective for exploration of the geometry and the related topology with complex systems.

- Abstract: We propose a scheme for measuring topological properties in a two-photon-driven Kerr-nonlinear resonator (KNR) subjected to a single-photon modulation. The topological properties are revealed through the observation of the Berry curvature and hence the first Chern number, as a nonadiabatic response of the physical observable to the change rate of the control parameter of the modulated drive. The parameter manifold, constructed from the system's Hamiltonian that determines its dynamics constrained in the state space spanned by the even and odd cat states as two basis states, is adjusted so that the degeneracy crossing the manifold indicates a topological transition. The scheme, with such continuous variable states in mesoscpic systems, provides a new perspective for exploration of the geometry and the related topology with complex systems.

This implies that the mean chiral displacement can detect the winding number even when the underlying Hamiltonian is quenched between different topological phases.
