Orbital semilattices are introduced as bounded semilattices that are, in addition, equipped with an outer multiplication (a semigroup action) and diagonals (a concept borrowed from cylindric algebra), where each semilattice element has a…
Trajectories are a central concept in our understanding of classical phenomena and also in rationalizing quantum mechanical effects. In this work we provide a way to determine semiclassical paths, approximations to quantum averages in phase…

Gutzwiller's trace formula for the semiclassical density of states diverges at the bifurcation points of periodic orbits and has to be replaced with uniform semiclassical approximations. We present a method to derive these expressions from…
Densities of states weighted with the diagonal matrix elements of two operators A and B, i.e., rho^(A,B)(E) = sum_n <n|A|n><n|B|n> delta(E-E_n) cannot, in general, be written as a trace formula, and therefore no simple extension of…
We present a semiclassical theory for transport through open billiards of arbitrary convex shape that includes diffractively scattered paths at the lead openings. Starting from a Dyson equation for the semiclassical Green's function we…
The derivation of the brackets among coordinates and momenta for classical constrained systems is a necessary step toward their quantization. Here we present a new approach for the determination of the classical brackets which does neither…
We consider a particular class of equations of motion, generalizing to n degrees of freedom the "dissipative spin--orbit problem", commonly studied in Celestial Mechanics. Those equations are formulated in a pseudo-Hamiltonian framework…
Trace formulae provide one of the most elegant descriptions of the classical-quantum correspondence. One side of a formula is given by a trace of a quantum object, typically derived from a quantum Hamiltonian, and the other side is…
