Comment on “Evolution Operator Can Always Be Separated into the Product of Holonomy and Dynamic Operators”

We show that the claim in Ref. [PRL 131, 200202 (2023)], that the quantum time evolution always can be written as a product of a holonomy operator and a dynamic operator, is false, as it is based on a circular use of the time evolution operator.

Abstract

We show that the claim in Ref. [PRL 131, 200202 (2023)], that the quantum time evolution always can be written as a product of a holonomy operator and a dynamic operator, is false, as it is based on a circular use of the time evolution operator.
