Hypersensitivity to perturbation: An information-theoretical characterization of classical and quantum chaos

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Hypersensitivity to perturbation is a criterion for chaos based on the question of how much information about a perturbing environment is needed to keep the entropy of a Hamiltonian system from increasing. In this paper we give a brief overview of our work on hypersensitivity to perturbation in classical and quantum systems.
