An initial coherent state is propagated exactly by a kicked quantum Hamiltonian and its associated classical stroboscopic map. The classical trajectories within the initial state are regular for low kicking strengths, then bifurcate and…
A semiclassical method to determine if the classical limit of a quantum system is chaotic or not, based on Pesin theorem, is presented. The method is applied to a phenomenological Gamow--type model and it is concluded that its classical…

We show how nonrelativistic many body techniques can be used to study quantum corrections to the classical limit, in particular of the $SU(2)$ Lipkin Model. We show that the quantum corrections are essentially of two types: unitary and…
A class of tensor models were recently outlined as potentially calculable examples of holography: their perturbative large-$N$ behavior is similar to the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, but they are fully quantum mechanical (in the sense…
