A usual assumption in the so-called {\it de Broglie - Bohm} approach to quantum dynamics is that the quantum trajectories subject to typical `guiding' wavefunctions turn to be quite irregular, i.e. {\it chaotic} (in the dynamical systems'…

Quantum mechanics is able to predict challenging behaviors even in the simplest physical scenarios. These behaviors are possible because of the important dynamical role that phase plays in the evolution of quantum systems, and are very…

We discuss quantum dynamics in multi-dimensional non-linear systems. It is well-known that wave functions are localized in a kicked rotor model. However, coupling with other degrees of freedom breaks the localization. In order to clarify…
