The Geometric Phase in Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics
read the original abstract
We explore the geometric phase in N=(2,2) supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The Witten index ensures the existence of degenerate ground states, resulting in a non-Abelian Berry connection. We exhibit a non-renormalization theorem which prohibits the connection from receiving perturbative corrections. However, we show that it does receive corrections from BPS instantons. We compute the one-instanton contribution to the Berry connection for the massive CP^1 sigma-model as the potential is varied. This system has two ground states and the associated Berry connection is the smooth SU(2) 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole.

Chaos of Berry curvature for BPS microstates
Berry curvature of BPS states is random-matrix-like for supersymmetric black hole microstates but non-random and often zero for horizonless geometries, offering a chaos diagnostic in degenerate sectors.
