Quantum geometry of bosonic Bogoliubov quasiparticles

Abstract

Bosonic Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BBdG) Hamiltonians describe the excitations of weakly interacting Bose condensates as well as photonic systems under parametric driving. Their topological features have been studied mainly by utilizing a generalized symplectic version of the Berry curvature and related Chern numbers. However, a full characterization of geometrical features in BBdG systems is still lacking. Here, we propose a symplectic quantum geometric tensor (SQGT), whose imaginary part leads to the previously studied symplectic Berry curvature, while the real part gives rise to a symplectic quantum metric, providing a natural distance measure in the space of bosonic Bogoliubov modes. The SQGT is directly related to observable properties of BBdG systems. We show how to measure all components of the SQGT by extracting excitation rates in response to periodic modulations of the system’s parameters. Moreover, we connect the symplectic Berry curvature to a generalized symplectic anomalous velocity term for Bogoliubov-Bloch wave packets. We test our results for a bosonic Bogoliubov-Haldane model.

Symplectic Hopf Insulator: Delicate Topology in Bosonic Bogoliubov-de Gennes Systems

Isaac Tesfaye, Giandomenico Palumbo

Recent advances in topological phases have highlighted the role of symplectic (Krein-space) topology in the classification of bosonic Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BBdG) systems. In this work, we construct a BBdG realization of Hopf topology, which we dub the symplectic Hopf insulator, starting from a microscopic Bose-Hubbard generalization of the Moore-Ran-Wen model with weak on-site interactions treated within a Bogoliubov approximation. The resulting BBdG system admits a symplectic Hopf invariant, which we show to be integer-quantized for isolated bands. We establish that this topology is intrinsically delicate, requiring exactly two bosonic modes per unit cell, while remaining robust against weak interactions over a range of mass parameters. Upon terminating the three-dimensional insulator at a boundary, we find topologically protected in-gap surface states at finite excitation energy, whose protection is itself delicate. Our results establish the symplectic Hopf insulator as a robust yet delicate topological phase in weakly interacting bosonic systems lying beyond the tenfold-way classification.

Fluctuations, uncertainty relations, and the geometry of quantum state manifolds

Balázs Hetényi, Péter Lévay

The complete quantum metric of a parametrized quantum system has a real part (usually known as the Provost-Vallee metric) and a symplectic imaginary part (known as the Berry curvature). In this paper, we first investigate the relation between the Riemann curvature tensor of the space described by the metric, and the Berry curvature, by explicit parallel transport of a vector in Hilbert space. Subsequently, we write a generating function from which the complex metric, as well as higher-order geometric tensors (affine connection, Riemann curvature tensor), can be obtained in terms of gauge-invariant cumulants. The generating function explicitly relates the quantities which characterize the geometry of the parameter space to quantum fluctuations. We also show that for a mixed quantum-classical system both real and imaginary parts of the quantum metric contribute to the dynamics, if the mass tensor is Hermitian. A many-operator generalization of the uncertainty principle results from taking the determinant of the complex quantum metric. We also calculate the quantum metric for a number of Lie group coherent states, including several representations of the $\text{SU}(1,1)$ group. In our examples nontrivial complex geometry results for generalized coherent states. A pair of oscillator states corresponding to the $\text{SU}(1,1)$ group gives a double series for its spectrum. The two minimal uncertainty coherent states show trivial geometry, but, again, for generalized coherent states nontrivial geometry results.

Direct measurement of the quantum geometric tensor in pseudo-Hermitian systems

Ze-Hao Huang, Hai-Tao Ding, Li-Jun Lang

The quantum geometric tensor (QGT) fundamentally encodes the geometry and topology of quantum states in both Hermitian and non-Hermitian regimes. While adiabatic perturbation theory links its real part (quantum metric) and imaginary part (Berry curvature) to energy fluctuations and generalized forces, respectively, in Hermitian systems, direct measurement of the QGT, which is defined using both left and right eigenstates of a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, remains challenging. Here we develop two quantum simulation schemes to directly extract all components of the QGT in pseudo-Hermitian systems with real spectra. Each scheme independently determines the complete QGT using generalized expectation values of either the energy fluctuation operator or the generalized force operator with respect to two time-evolved states prepared through distinct nonadiabatic evolutions, thereby establishing two self-contained measurement protocols. We illustrate the validity of these schemes on two $q$-deformed two-band models: one with nontrivial topology and the other with a nonvanishing off-diagonal quantum metric. Numerical simulations demonstrate that, for suitably chosen nonadiabatic ramp velocities, both schemes achieve high-fidelity agreement with theoretical predictions for measuring the QGT in both models and successfully capture the topological phase transition of the first model using Chern numbers calculated from Berry curvatures. For larger velocities, the generalized force scheme yields greater accuracy for the real part of the QGT, while the energy fluctuation scheme better captures its imaginary part. This work establishes a framework for extending dynamical measurement schemes from Hermitian to pseudo-Hermitian systems with real spectra.

Geometric assembly of topology in hybrid bosonic bands: magnon-phonon excitations in skyrmion crystals

Doried Ghader, Bilal Jabakhanji

Hybridization between bosonic excitations can produce topological bands, but their Chern numbers conceal how constituent modes generate the resulting Berry geometry. Here we derive an exact decomposition of Berry curvature in multicomponent bosonic Bogoliubov-de Gennes systems into weighted constituent-sector contributions and a term associated with single-quasiparticle entanglement. The latter couples momentum-space variations of the sector imbalance to a gauge-invariant relative Berry connection and has an equivalent gauge-covariant pseudospin representation. Applying this framework to magnon-phonon excitations in a ferromagnetic skyrmion crystal, we find that magnetoelastic coupling generates topological low-energy hybrid bands despite the trivial topology of the two lowest uncoupled magnon bands and degeneracies among folded phonons. The resulting Chern numbers are assembled through constructive, entanglement-assisted, and entanglement-compensated geometric mechanisms. In particular, bands with identical Chern numbers can exhibit opposite entanglement contributions. Our approach thus resolves nonquantized internal geometric contributions hidden within quantized hybrid-band invariants, without requiring an effective two-level Hamiltonian.

Quantum geometric tensor for the group SU(1,1)

Anonymous, G. S. Agarwal

The quantum geometric tensor sets the local relation between variations of external parameters and distances between states in Hilbert space. Its real and imaginary parts are, respectively, the quantum Fisher information matrix, which determines the ultimate precision bound in parameter estimation, and the Berry curvature. We study the geometry of SU(1,1) Hamiltonian eigenstates and propose two dynamical methods for extracting the components of the SU(1,1) quantum geometric tensor. A time-separated quench method extracts both the real and imaginary parts of the quantum geometric tensor from transition probabilities following two sudden parameter changes separated by free evolution, while a weak resonant modulation method relates quasiparticle production to the same geometric tensor. These results provide an operational method for measuring the local geometry of single-mode squeezed states and, in particular, for extracting the quantum Fisher information matrix directly from experimental observables.

Quantum-Geometric Length Scale for Long-distance Squeezing in Bosonic Bogoliubov Systems

Sonu Verma, Sangmo Cheon, Myung-Joong Hwang +1 more

Multimode squeezing is a key resource for continuous-variable quantum technologies, but its spatial range in bosonic lattices is usually tied to dispersive propagation. Here we show that parametric pairing can create an exactly flat Bogoliubov band spanned by compact Bogoliubov generators, while producing phase-sensitive anomalous correlations and sub-vacuum collective-mode squeezing that extend far beyond their finite support. Each compact generator mixes annihilation and creation operators, thereby encoding the Bogoliubov squeezing structure, and neighboring translated generators can have nonzero commutator overlap. Enforcing canonical bosonic commutation relations therefore requires spatially extended linear combinations of these translated compact generators, which define the canonical Bogoliubov modes. The squeezing transformation of these modes varies with momentum and is quantified by the squeezing-sector symplectic quantum metric. A complex-momentum singularity of the analytically continued canonical Bogoliubov modes sets both the anomalous-correlation decay length and the momentum-space width of this metric, defining an intrinsic quantum-geometric length scale. This singularity can be tuned continuously while preserving exact flatness, thereby controlling the spatial range of correlations and squeezing. Away from exact flatness, long-distance correlations persist through multiple decay channels, while modes localized by defects and dimerized boundaries provide complementary probes of the underlying quantum geometry. In the weak-damping limit, the same quantum-geometric length scale can be extracted from frequency-filtered two-port correlations. Our results establish the quantum geometry of canonical Bogoliubov modes as a mechanism for spatially extended quantum resources arising from compact Bogoliubov generators.
