Show affiliationsWe develop an interpretation of the geometric phase in evolution with a non-Hermitian real-valued Hamiltonian by relating it to the angle developed during the parallel transport along a closed curve by a unit vector triad in the 3D Minkovsky space. We also show that this geometric phase is responsible for the anholonomy effects in stochastic processes considered by Sinitsyn and Nemenman (2007 Europhys. Lett. 77 58001), and use it to derive the stochastic system response to periodic parameter variations.
