Geometry and the anomalous Hall effet in ferromagnets
arXiv:cond-mat/0508236 · doi:10.1142/9789812773210_0028
Abstract
The geometric ideas underlying the Berry phase and the modern viewpoint of Karplus and Luttinger's theory of the anomalous Hall effect are discussed in an elementary way. We briefly review recent Hall and Nernst experiments which support the dominant role of the KL velocity term in ferromagnets.
