Non-Abelian observable-geometric phases and the Riemann zeros

The Hilbert-P\'{o}lya conjecture asserts that the imaginary parts of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function (the Riemann zeros) are the eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator (a quantum mechanical Hamiltonian, in the physical sense), as a promising approach to prove the Riemann hypothesis (cf.{SH2011}). Instead of the eigenvalues, in this paper we consider observable-geometric phases as the realization of the Riemann zeros in a periodically driven quantum system, which were introduced in {Chen2020} for the study of geometric quantum computation. To this end, we further introduce the notion of non-Abelian observable-geometric phases, involving which we give an approach to finding a physical system to study the Riemann zeros. Since the observable-geometric phases are connected with the geometry of the observable space according to the evolution of the Heisenberg equation, this sheds some light on the investigation of the Riemann hypothesis.
