After the short survey of the Klein Paradox in 3-dimensional relativistic equations, we present a detailed consideration of Dirac modified equation, which follows by one particle infinite overweighting in Salpeter Equation. It is shown,…
Full general relativity is almost certainly 'chaotic'. We argue that this entails a notion of nonintegrability: a generic general relativistic model, at least when coupled to cosmologically interesting matter, likely possesses neither…
We study the effect on quantum spectra of the existence of small circular disks in a billiard system. In the limit where the disk radii vanish there is no effect, however this limit is approached very slowly so that even very small radii…
Motivated by the conduction properties of graphene discovered and studied in the last decades, we consider the quantum dynamics of a massless, charged, spin 1/2 relativistic particle in three dimensional space-time, in the presence of an…
We perform numerical studies of the wave packet propagation through open quantum billiards whose classical counterparts exhibit regular and chaotic dynamics. We show that for t less or similar to tau (tau being the Heisenberg time), the…
We study finite two dimensional spin lattices with definite geometry (spin billiards) demonstrating the display of collective integrable or chaotic dynamics depending on their shape. We show that such systems can be quantum simulated by…
Quantum walks are at present an active field of study in mathematics, with important applications in quantum information and statistical physics. In this paper, we determine the influence of basic chaotic features on the walker behavior.…
We suggest that random matrix theory applied to a classical action matrix can be used in classical physics to distinguish chaotic from non-chaotic behavior. We consider the 2-D stadium billiard system as well as the 2-D anharmonic and…
At the interface between two massless Dirac models with opposite helicity a paradoxical situation arises: A transversally impinging electron can seemingly neither be transmitted nor reflected, due to the locking between spin and momentum.…
We prove the presence of topological chaos at high internal energies for a new class of mechanical refraction billiards coming from Celestial Mechanics. Given a smooth closed domain $D\in\mathbb{R}^2$, a central mass generates a Keplerian…
We construct new relativistic linear differential equation in $d$ dimensions generalizing Dirac equation by employing the Clifford algebra of the cubic polynomial associated to Klein-Gordon operator multiplied by the mass parameter. Unlike…
Close to a spacelike singularity, pure gravity and supergravity in four to eleven spacetime dimensions admit a cosmological billiard description based on hyperbolic Kac-Moody groups. We investigate the quantum cosmological billiards of…
Employing oval shaped quantum billiards connected by quantum wires as the building blocks of a linear quantum dot array, we calculate the ballistic magnetoconductance in the linear response regime. Optimizing the geometry of the billiards,…
It is supposed the existence of a curved graphene sheet with the geometry of a Bour surface $B_{n}$, such as the catenoid (or helicoid), $B_{0}$, and the classical Enneper surface, $B_{2}$, among others. In particular, in this work, the…
There is good evidence that full general relativity is non-integrable or even chaotic. We point out the severe repercussions: differentiable Dirac observables and a reduced phase space do not exist in non-integrable constrained systems and…
Quantum billiards provide an excellent forum for the analysis of quantum chaos. Toward this end, we consider quantum billiards with time-varying surfaces, which provide an important example of quantum chaos that does not require the…
The Quantum Unique Ergodicity (QUE) conjecture of Rudnick-Sarnak is that every eigenfunction phi_n of the Laplacian on a manifold with uniformly-hyperbolic geodesic flow becomes equidistributed in the semiclassical limit (eigenvalue E_n ->…
We study stochastic billiards in infinite planar domains with curvilinear boundaries: that is, piecewise deterministic motion with randomness introduced via random reflections at the domain boundary. Physical motivation for the process…
Analytical expressions for the width and conductance peak distributions of irregularly shaped quantum dots in the Coulomb blockade regime are presented in the limits of conserved and broken time-reversal symmetry. The results are obtained…
We give a beautiful explicit example of a convex plane curve such that the outer billiard has a given finite number of invariant curves. Moreover, the dynamics on these curves is a standard shift. This example can be considered as an outer…
