contents Higher Berry curvature (HBC) is the proposed generalization of Berry curvature to infinitely extended systems. Heuristically HBC captures the flow of local Berry curvature in a system. Here we provide a simple formula for computing the HBC for extended $d = 1$ systems at the level of wave functions using the Schmidt decomposition. We also find a corresponding formula for matrix product states (MPS), and show that for translationally invariant MPS this gives rise to a quantized invariant. We demonstrate our approach with an exactly solvable model and numerical calculations for generic models using iDMRG
