Abstract

Rearrangement of rotation-vibration energy bands in isolated molecules within semi-quantum approach is characterized by delta-Chern invariants, each of which is associated to a locally approximated semi-quantum Hamiltonian valid in a small neighborhood of a degeneracy point for the initial semi-quantum Hamiltonian and also valid in a small neighborhood of a critical point corresponding to the crossing of the boundary between iso-Chern domains in the control parameter space. For a full quantum model, a locally approximated Hamiltonian is assumed to take the form of a Dirac operator together with a specific boundary condition. It is demonstrated that the crossing of the boundary along a path with a delta-Chern invariant equal to ±1 corresponds to the transfer of one quantum level from a subspaces of quantum states to the other subspace associated with respective positive and negative energy eigenvalues of the local Dirac Hamiltonian.
