Derivation of expression for Berry curvature

\end{align*} The Berry curvature is obtained by taking the exterior derivative of $\mathcal{A}$, \begin{align*} \mathcal{F}&=d\mathcal{A}=\frac{d\bar{v}(k)\wedge dv(k)}{(1+|v(k)|^2)}-\frac{|v(k)|^2d\bar … The expression found for the curvature also shows, explicitly, that the first Chern number is the degree/winding number of the map $\Phi:k\mapsto \vec{x}(k)= \vec{h}(k)/|\vec{h}(k)|\in S^2$, \begin{align …
