What is the Purpose of this Lecture? • To understand the physical contents of the NACTs • By Definition a NACT is a vector but….? • We show that NACTs behave like fields
Contents • I. The Hilbert Space • II. Degeneracy Points as Poles • III. Vector Algebra to Form Two-state (Quantum) fields • IV. Field Equations to Form Multi-State (Quantum) Fields
Chapter I The Hilbert Space
Introduction • Consider a series of N-dimensional Hilbert spaces • Resolution of unity:
The NACT • The connection between the Hilbert spaces of adjacent points is described in terms of an NxN vectorial matrix: • is the electronic Born Oppenheimer NACT matrix • is an anti-symmetric matrix
Connecting Hilbert Spaces • Two Hilbert spaces at nearby points: • Recalling the resolution of the unity (and multiplying by )
We obtain: • Solving the First order Differential • The Integration is along a prescribed contour R. Baer, J. Chem. Phys. 117, 405 (2002).
sf si Closed Contour • For a closed contour (loop) • In loops: return to the same state (up to phase) A. Alijah and M. Baer, Chem. Phys. Lett. 319, 489 (2000)
Quantization Conditions • A group of N states forms a Hilbert space(in a given region) if and only if the D-matrices are diagonal along any contour :
Quantization Conditions • In the case of real eigenfunctions: • In case of two states (N=2): the D-matrix can be written as: A. Alijah and M. Baer, Chem. Phys. Lett. 319,489(2000)
Bohr-Sommerfeld Quantization Condition • () is the Topological (Berry) phase: • The 22D()-matrix becomes diagonal if:
Hilbert subspace • We assume that breaks up into blocks

The Curl Equation • The eigenfunctions of a Hilbert space satisfy, for any (p,q) tensorial component, the equality: • This equality is termed as the Curl Condition • If the NACT-matrix breaks up into blocks the Curl Conditionis fulfilled for each Block M. Baer, Chem. Phys. Lett. 35, 112 (1975)
The Curl Equation (continued) • Abelianvs non-Abelian variables • Commutation Relation • The t-matrix is, in general, non-Abelian • A 22t-matrix is Abelian
j q CI The curl condition for Two-state System: • Here: • This case is Abelian and therefore: • In polar coordinates
j q CI The Divergence Equation • The eigenfunctions of a Hilbert space form also a Divergence equation • where • In polar coordinates:
Div(s) for a Two-State System • In Cartesian Coordinates • The t(2) matrix elements are: • In contrast to t-matrix elements, they are scalars
Chapter II Degeneracy Points As Poles
The Degeneracy Point and its Close Vicinity • At the vicinity of DP the corresponding NACT behaves like a Pole: it is singular and decays like (1/q) • At the vicinity of DP the corresponding NACT possesses an angular component. • At the vicinity of DP the radial component of the corresponding NACT is negligible small. • At the vicinity of DP related to a given NACT the effect of all other NACTs is negligible small
The Epstein Theorem • The Epstein Theorem States that (at every point in CS): • Degeneracy Points (DP) can only be formed if
j q CI The Epstein Theorem at Degeneracy Points • At the vicinity of aDPwe consider the angular component: • At the vicinity of a DPwe expand for q~0
The Pole and the Quantization • For the DP to be a Pole: • In such a case: • Recalling Quantization (Berry Phase):
j q CI S Stokes Theorem • The (Abelian) 22 Curl Condition: • There is an unresolved issue at q=0: We have to define F at q=0to fulfill Stokes Theorem. • Stokes theorem Asserts that: M. Maer, Chem. Phys. Lett. 349,149 (2001) Vertesi, Vibok, Halasz, Yahalom, Englman and Baer, J. Phys. Chem. A 107, 7189 (2003)
Stokes Theorem (Cont.) • The line integral Fulfills Bohr-Sommerfeld Quantization law • F has to be extended to have a value at the DP point: • To fulfill the Stokes Theorem must obey
Close vicinity of DP(Example: solving the Curl Equation) • Having the Curl equation • We derive the angular component of : • Thus near a DP(q0): Will be taken as boundary values around each DP
Summary(what did we achieve so far?) • The Curl-Div Equations fulfilled by the NACTs can be applied to derive the related fields (just like the Maxwell Equations are applied to calculate the electro-magnetic fields) • The boundary conditions needed to calculate these fields are formed at the close vicinity of the DPs and are obtained from Ab-initio calculations using given packages (MOLPRO).

Chapter IV Field Equations to Form Multi-State Quantum Fields
Field Theory to derive NACTs • The Born-Oppenheimer NACTs are: • Vector-fields formed by sources located atDPs. • Treated theoretically (and numerically) employing field theory. • Methodology: • Calculate Abelian NACTs, jj+1 formed, by states j and j+1, due to a single DP along a small contour surrounding this (j,j+1) DP (e.g. MOLPRO). • At larger regions, due to the existence of DPs formed by other states, the system becomes non-Abelian • The NN -matrix which fulfills the non-Abelian Curl-Equation and the non-Abelian Div-Equation is obtained by solving these equations. • This calculated matrix contains the non-Abelian Quantum Fields.
