The spinor that describes the low energy states near the Fermi energy acquires a phase when transported around the apex of the cone, as found by a holonomy transformation. This topological result can be viewed as an analogue of the Aharonov-Bohm effect. The topological analysis is extended to a system with $n$ cones, whose resulting configuration is described by an effective defect.4 pages, revtex4Materials ScienceStrongly Correlated ElectronsHigh Energy Physics - TheoryGeometric Phases in Graphitic Conestext
