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 …
