Using quantum maps we study the accuracy of semiclassical trace formulas. The role of chaos in improving the semiclassical accuracy, in some systems, is demonstrated quantitatively. However, our study of the standard map cautions that this…
We argue that the Lorentzian path integral is a better starting point for quantum cosmology than the Euclidean version. In particular, we revisit the mini-superspace calculation of the Feynman path integral for quantum gravity with a…

The real-time propagator of the symmetric Rosen-Morse, also known as the symmetric modified P\"oschl-Teller, barrier is expressed in the Picard-Lefschetz path integral formalism using real and complex classical paths. We explain how the…
We derive a trace formula for $\sum_n A_{nn}B_{nn}...\delta(E-E_n)$, where $A_{nn}$ is the diagonal matrix element of the operator $A$ in the energy basis of a chaotic system. The result takes the form of a smooth term plus periodic-orbit…
We study the linear periods on $GL_{2n}$ twisted by a character using a new relative trace formula. We establish the relative fundamental lemma and the transfer of orbital integrals. Together with the spectral isolation technique of…
Let D be a holomorphic differential operator acting on sections of a holomorphic vector bundle on an n-dimensional compact complex manifold. We prove a formula, conjectured by Feigin and Shoikhet, for the Lefschetz number of D as the…
Long periodic orbits constitute a serious drawback in Gutzwiller's theory of chaotic systems, and then it would be desirable that other classical invariants, not suffering from the same problem, could be used in the quantization of such…
Representations of quantum computations are almost always based on a tensor product $\otimes$-structure. This coincides with what we are able to execute in our experiments, as well as what we observe in Nature, but it makes certain familiar…
The trace of an arbitrary product of quantum operators with the density operator is rendered as a multiple phase space integral of the product of their Weyl symbols with the Wigner function. Interspersing the factors with various evolution…
