Abstract. General features of the concept of Berry's phase are reported and extended to parallel transport based on curves of density operators. Product integral representations and a natural connection is introduced. The paper is published in: DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY, GROUP REPRESENTATION, AND QUANTIZATION, J.Hennig, W.L\"ucke, J.Tolar eds., Lecture Notes in Physics {\bf 379}, 565-583, Springer-Verlag However, the numbering of the equations is different, and some miswritten equations have been corrected. (Mainly in chapter 3: After the definition of the geometric mean, all exponente one over two have to be changed to one, and the less or equal sign in the first line of chapter 3 is reversed.)
