Description

We study the two qubit phase space which is very simply a seven sphere. However, the topological seven spheres come in 28 inequivalent differential structures. We study the non-abelian Berry connection on the Kaluza-Klein reduced seven sphere to the four sphere with Yang-Mills fields, to see how the exotic differential structure can affect the two qubit system.
