We find the existence of sub-Planck scale structures in the P{\"o}schl-Teller potential, which is an exactly solvable potential with both symmetric and asymmetric features. We analyze these structures in both cases by looking at the Wigner…
Compass states deliver sub-Planck phase-space structure in the sense that sensitivity to phase-space displacement is superior to the sensitivity of displacing the vacuum state in any direction, but this sensitivity is anisotropic: better…
