  "abstract": "Many body effects on spin dynamics in semiconductors have attracted a lot of attentions in recent years. In this paper, we show why and how the many body effects have to be considered by a simple Bloch sphere geometry approach. The micro dynamics here are viewed as a time dependent sequence of unitary group action on the spin density matrix. Based on this physical picture, we give the explicit unitary group for conventional spin dynamics mechanism such as DP, EY, and BAP using pure density matrix. And we also show the various scattering processes how influence the spin system via mixed density matrix and Feynman diagrams.",
