Essay: Where can quantum geometry lead us?
P Törmä - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Quantum geometry defines the phase and amplitude distances between quantum states.
The phase distance is characterized by the Berry curvature and thus relates to topological …

Parent Berry curvature and the ideal anomalous Hall crystal
We study a model of electrons moving in a parent band of uniform Berry curvature. At
sufficiently high parent Berry curvature, we show that strong repulsive interactions …

Revisiting flat band superconductivity: Dependence on minimal quantum metric and band touchings
A central result in superconductivity is that flat bands, though dispersionless, can still host a
nonzero superfluid weight due to quantum geometry. We show that the derivation of the …
