Motion Meets Quantum Geometry, presented by Anatoly Polkovnikov Fast quantum dynamics and slow classical motion often coexist, as in electrons coupled to moving ions. The Born–Oppenheimer approximation describes the fast subsystem using states determined by the instantaneous configuration of the slow one. But motion itself can change the appropriate internal state: water in a rotating bucket does not have the same equilibrium as water in a stationary one. I will introduce quantum geometry and explain its connection to familiar pseudoforces, including inertial and Coriolis forces, emphasizing…
