Quantized, compact graphs were shown to be excellent paradigms for quantum chaos in bounded systems. Connecting them with leads to infinity we show that they display all the features which characterize scattering systems with an underlying…

A set of zero-range scatterers along its axis lifts the integrability of a harmonic waveguide. Effective solution of the Schr\"odinger equation for this model is possible due to the separable nature of the scatterers and millions of…
