Consider a quantum cat map $M$ associated to a matrix $A\in\mathop{\mathrm{Sp}}(2n,\mathbb Z)$, which is a common toy model in quantum chaos. We show that the mass of eigenfunctions of $M$ on any nonempty open set in the position-frequency…

We consider eigenvalues of a quantized cat map (i.e. hyperbolic symplectic integer matrix), cut off in phase space to include a fixed point as its only periodic orbit on the torus. We prove a simple formula for the eigenvalues on both the…

We consider the quantized hyperbolic automorphisms on the 2-dimensional torus (or generalized quantum cat maps), and study the localization properties of their eigenstates in phase space, in the semiclassical limit. We prove that if the…

Quantum cat maps are toy models in quantum chaos associated to hyperbolic symplectic matrices $A\in \operatorname{Sp}(2n,\mathbb{Z})$. The macroscopic limits of sequences of eigenfunctions of a quantum cat map are characterized by…

Given a quantum Hamiltonian, we explain how the dynamical properties of the underlying classical system affect the behaviour of quantum eigenstates in the semi-classical limit. We study this problem via the notion of semiclassical measures.…

We prove that the short-period eigenfunctions of quantum cat maps constructed by Kim and the author equidistribute on $\mathbb{T}^2$ in the sense of semiclassical measures. We also show that their logarithmically large $\ell^\infty$-norm is…

We study eigenfunction localization for higher dimensional cat maps, a popular model of quantum chaos. These maps are given by linear symplectic maps in ${\mathrm{Sp}}(2g,\mathbb Z)$, which we take to be ergodic. Under some natural…

We study semiclassical measures for Laplacian eigenfunctions on compact complex hyperbolic quotients. Geodesic flows on these quotients are a model case of hyperbolic dynamical systems with different expansion/contraction rates in different…

We show that each limiting semiclassical measure obtained from a sequence of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact hyperbolic surface is supported on the entire cosphere bundle. The key new ingredient for the proof is the fractal…

Using the Bargmann-Husimi representation of quantum mechanics on a torus phase space, we study analytically eigenstates of quantized cat maps. The linearity of these maps implies a close relationship between classically invariant…

Consider an $ N \times N$ Hermitian one-dimensional random band matrix with band width $W > N^{1 / 2 + \frak c} $ for any $ {\frak c} > 0$. In the bulk of the spectrum and in the large $ N $ limit, we obtain the following results: (i) The…

We study the baker's map and its Walsh quantization, as a toy model of a quantized chaotic system. We focus on localization properties of eigenstates, in the semiclassical regime. Simple counterexamples show that quantum unique ergodicity…

In this paper we construct a sequence of eigenfunctions of the ``quantum Arnold's cat map'' that, in the semiclassical limit, show a strong scarring phenomenon on the periodic orbits of the dynamics. More precisely, those states have a…

A simple argument shows that eigenstates of a classically ergodic system are individually ergodic on coarse-grained scales. This has implications for the quantization ambiguity in ergodic systems: the difference between alternative…
