Optimal design strategy for non-Abelian geometric phases using Abelian gauge fields based on quantum metric
Geometric phases, which are ubiquitous in quantum mechanics, are commonly more than only scalar quantities. Indeed, often they are matrix-valued objects that are connected with non-Abelian geometries. Here, we show how generalized non-Abelian geometric phases can be realized using electromagnetic wa...
