The quantum baker's map is the quantization of a simple classically chaotic system, and has many generic features that have been studied over the last few years. While there exists a semiclassical theory of this map, a more rigorous study…

Semiclassical spectra weighted with products of diagonal matrix elements of operators A_{alpha}, i.e., g_{alpha alpha'}(E) = sum_n <n|A_{alpha}|n><n|A_{alpha'}|n>/(E-E_n) are obtained by harmonic inversion of a cross-correlation signal…

We consider the semiclassical asymptotic behaviour of the number of eigenvalues smaller than $E$ for elliptic operators in $L\sp 2 ({\bf R}\sp d)$. We describe a method of finding remainder estimates related to the volume of the region of…

The algebra of polynomials in operators that represent generalized coordinate and momentum and depend on the Planck constant is defined. The Planck constant is treated as the parameter taking values between zero and some nonvanishing $h_0$.…

Let $H(x,p)\sim H_0(x,p)+hH_1(x,p)+\cdots$ be a semi-classical Hamiltonian on $T^*{\bf R}^n$, and $\Sigma_E=\{H_0(x,p)=E\}$ a non critical energy surface. Consider $f_h$ a semi-classical distribution (the "source") microlocalized on a…

We develop a renormalization theory of non-perturbative dissipative H\'enon-like maps with combinatorics of bounded type. The main novelty of our approach is the incorporation of Pesin theoretic ideas to the renormalization method, which…

Let $Sp(2,1)$ be the isometry group of the quaternionic hyperbolic plane ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. An element $g$ in $Sp(2,1)$ is `hyperbolic' if it fixes exactly two points on the boundary of ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. We classify pairs…
