How to go from finite to infinitesimal form of the Fubini-Study metric?

As mentioned e.g. in the Wikipedia page, given a pair of pure states $\psi,\phi\in\mathbb{CP}^{N-1}$, the geodesic distance between them is $$\gamma(\psi,\phi) = \arccos\sqrt{\frac{\langle\psi|\phi\...

What is the $K_i$ in Fubini-Study tensor?

Following this paper and tutorial from Pennylane, I'm trying to re-calculate the Fubini-Study tensor: $$ g_{i j}^{(\ell)}=\left\langle\psi_{\ell-1}\left|K_{i} K_{j}\right| \psi_{\ell-1}\right\rangle-\...
