We compute the quantum variance of holomorphic cusp forms on the vertical geodesic for smooth, compactly supported test functions. The variance is related to an averaged shifted-convolution problem that we evaluate asymptotically. We…
On a closed hyperbolic surface, we investigate semiclassical defect measures associated with the magnetic Laplacian in the presence of a constant magnetic field. Depending on the energy level where the eigenfunctions concentrate, three…

The notion of quantum embedding is considered for two classes of examples: quantum coadjoint orbits in Lie coalgebras and quantum symplectic leaves in spaces with non-Lie permutation relations. A method for constructing irreducible…
We study irreducible representations of a class of quantum spheres, quotients of quantum symplectic spheres.

The magnetic Laplacian on hyperbolic surfaces provides a rich analytic framework in which a variety of quantum phenomena emerge. The present note, written for the \emph{Proceedings of the Journ\'ees EDP 2025}, is a concise overview of the…
We prove a strong conditional unique continuation estimate for irreducible quasimodes in rotationally invariant neighbourhoods on compact surfaces of revolution. The estimate states that Laplace quasimodes which cannot be decomposed as a…
We consider a quantum particle constrained to a curved layer of a constant width built over an infinite smooth surface. We suppose that the latter is a locally deformed plane and that the layer has the hard-wall boundary. Under this…
The three-dimensional nonlinear dynamics of an electron gas in a semiconductor quantum well is analyzed in terms of a self-consistent fluid formulation and a variational approach. Assuming a time-dependent localized profile for the fluid…
We establish two new variants of arithmetic quantum ergodicity. The first is for self-dual $\mathrm{GL}_2$ Hecke-Maass newforms over $\mathbb{Q}$ as the level and Laplace eigenvalue vary jointly. The second is a nonsplit analogue wherein…
Let $\cl{M}$ be a Hilbert module of holomorphic functions over a natural function algebra $\mathcal{A}(\Omega)$, where $\Omega \subseteq \bb{C}^m$ is a bounded domain. Let $\cl{M}_0\subseteq \cl{M}$ be the submodule of functions vanishing…
In this note we quantize the usual symplectic (K\"{a}hler) form on the vortex moduli space by modifying the Quillen metric of the Quillen determinant line bundle.
In this short paper, we propose a new quantum effect that naturally emerges from describing the quantum particle as a classical fluid. Following the hydrodynamical formulation of quantum mechanics for a particle in a finite convex region,…
The propagation of surface plasmons on a quantum plasma half-space in the absence of any external confinement is investigated. By means of Quantum Hydrodynamic Model in the electrostatic limit it is found that the equilibrium density…
Let $(M,g)$ be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold and $F_\lambda(M)$ the space of densities of degree $\lambda$ on $M$. We study the space $D^2_{\lambda,\mu}(M)$ of second-order differential operators from $F_\lambda(M)$ to $F_\mu(M)$. If $(M,g)$…
The velocity circulation, a measure of the rotation of a fluid within a closed path, is a fundamental observable in classical and quantum flows. It is indeed a Lagrangian invariant in inviscid classical fluids. In quantum flows, circulation…
The dynamics of a quantum nonlinear oscillator is studied in terms of its quasi-flow, a dynamical mapping of the classical phase plane that represents the time-evolution of the quantum observables. Explicit expressions are derived for the…

Starting with the generally well accepted opinion that quantizing an arbitrary Hamiltonian system involves picking out some additional structure on the classical phase space (the {\sl shadow} of quantum mechanics in the classical theory),…
