We consider the problem of a sphere rolling on a curved surface and solve it by mapping it to the
precession of a spin 1/2 in a magnetic field of variable magnitude and direction. The mapping can
be of pedagogical use in discussing both rolling and spin precession. As an interesting example we
show that the Landau-Zener problem corresponds to the rolling of a sphere on a Cornu spiral, and
derive the probability of a non-adiabatic transition using the rolling language. We also discuss the
adiabatic limit and the vanishing of geometric phases for rolling on curved surfaces.

I. INTRODUCTION paper is to use the isomorphism to discuss rolling spheres
on an arbitrary surface.
In this paper we consider a question similar to that The precession of a spin 1/2 is widely treated in the
posed in the title of Ref. [1]: How much does a sphere literature and one can borrow those results to acquire
rotate when rolling on a curved surface? In Ref. [1], an intuition for the rolling sphere. Conversely, since a
