Geometric phase of arbitrary Mueller evolutions and its two-level quantum analogue
The only intrinsic geometric phase for any physically realizable Mueller transformation is the retarding part of its characteristic pure component from the decomposition, with a direct analogue in open two-level quantum dynamics via the Choi representation.
