By including a pre-phase-factor, the Moyal representation for the spin-1/2 (or two-level) system is modified. Such a modification is necessary for describing completely the quantum evolution and calculating exactly the quantum phase. In our modified Moyal representation (MMR) the geometrical expression of the most general quantum phase, i.e., the Pancharatnam phase, is deduced in a much simpler way and without the restriction of cyclic evolution. Two simple examples of application of the MMR are given.

The historical and geometrical origin of Gauge Transformation and Yang's phase loop of gauge theory are discussed. In the present talk, we present the following points: 1. Parallel transport of a vector; 2. Weyl 1918 gauge transformation 3. Concept of non-integrable phase factor; 4. Berry's quantum geometrical phase; 5. Parallel transport of quantum state vector produces the phase physics.

We propose a phase factor of the worldsheet S-matrix for strings on AdS5 × S5 apparently solving Janik's crossing relation exactly.


A quantal system in an eigenstate, slowly transported round a circuit C by varying parameters R in its Hamiltonian Ĥ(R), will acquire a geometrical phase factor exp{iγ(C)} in addition to the familiar dynamical phase factor. An explicit general formula for γ(C) is derived in terms of the spectrum and eigenstates of Ĥ(R) over a surface spanning C. If C lies near a degeneracy of Ĥ, γ(C) takes a simple form which includes as a special case the sign change of eigenfunctions of real symmetric matrices round a degeneracy. As an illustration γ(C) is calculated for spinning particles in slowly-changing magnetic fields; although the sign reversal of spinors on rotation is a special case, the effect is predicted to occur for bosons as well as fermions, and a method for observing it is proposed. It is shown that the Aharonov-Bohm effect can be interpreted as a geometrical phase factor.

We propose a general path-integral definition of two-dimensional quantum field theories deformed by an integrable, irrelevant vector operator constructed from the components of the stress tensor and those of a U(1) current. The deformed theory is obtained by coupling the original QFT to a flat dynamical gauge field and ``half'' a flat dynamical vielbein. The resulting partition function is shown to satisfy a geometric flow equation, which perfectly reproduces the flow equations for the deformed energy levels that were previously derived in the literature. The S-matrix of the deformed QFT differs from the original S-matrix only by an overall phase factor that depends on the charges and momenta of the external particles, thus supporting the conjecture that such QFTs are UV complete, although intrinsically non-local. For the special case of an integrable QFT, we check that this phase factor precisely reproduces the change in the finite-size spectrum via the Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz equations.
