Geometric genus In mathematics, the geometric genus in algebraic geometry is a basic birational invariant pg of algebraic varieties, defined for non-singular complex projective varieties (and more generally for complex manifolds) as the Hodge number hn,0 (equal to h0,n by Serre duality). In other words for a variety V of complex dimension n it is the number of linearly independent holomorphic n-forms to be found on V.

Geometric isomerism In chemistry, geometric isomerism or cis-trans isomerism is a form of stereoisomerism and describes the orientation of functional groups within the molecule. Such isomers typically contain double bonds which cannot rotate, but they can also arise from ring structures where the rotation of bonds is greatly restricted.
Geometric phase In quantum mechanics, the Geometric phase, or the Pancharatnam-Berry phase (named after S. Pancharatnam and Sir Michael Berry), also known as the Pancharatnam phase or Berry phase, is a phase acquired by quantum states when subjected to adiabatic processes, resulting from the geometrical properties of the parameter space of the Hamiltonian.
Geometric progression In mathematics, a geometric progression (also known as a geometric sequence or a geometric series) is a sequence of numbers such that the quotient of any two successive members of the sequence is constant. This ratio is called the common ratio of the sequence.
Geometric quantization In mathematical physics, geometric quantization is a mathematical approach to defining a quantum theory corresponding to a given classical theory. It attempts to carry out quantization, for which there is in general no exact recipe, in such a way that certain analogies between the classical theory and the quantum theory remain manifest.

Geometrical frustration Geometrical frustration is a phenomenon in condensed matter physics in which the geometrical properties of the atomic lattice forbid the existence of a unique ground state, resulting in a nonzero residual entropy. The most important consequence of this is that the entropy of the system does not go to zero at absolute zero.
