The eigenvalue density of a quantum-mechanical system exhibits oscillations, determined by the closed orbits of the corresponding classical system; this relationship is simple and strong for waves in billiards or on manifolds, but becomes…
Periodic orbit expressions for the density of states lead to spurious results when directly used to calculate quantities of thermodynamic interest. This is because the trace formula is usually valid only for large energies while the…

We set up a trace formula for the relativistic density of states in terms of a topological sum of classical periodic orbits. The result is applicable to any relativistic integrable system.
We derive semiclassical contributions of periodic orbits from a boundary integral equation for three-dimensional billiard systems. We use an iterative method that keeps track of the composition of the stability matrix and the Maslov index…
We investigate the resonance spectrum of the H\'enon-Heiles potential up to twice the barrier energy. The quantum spectrum is obtained by the method of complex coordinate rotation. We use periodic orbit theory to approximate the oscillating…
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…
The exact and semiclassical quantum mechanics of the elliptic billiard is investigated. The classical system is integrable and exhibits a separatrix, dividing the phasespace into regions of oscillatory and rotational motion. The classical…
We derive an analytical trace formula for the level density of the two-dimensional elliptic billiard using an improved stationary phase method. The result is a continuous function of the deformation parameter (eccentricity) through all…
A general technique for the periodic orbit quantization of systems with near-integrable to mixed regular-chaotic dynamics is introduced. A small set of periodic orbits is sufficient for the construction of the semiclassical recurrence…
The structure of the semiclassical trace formula can be used to construct a quasi-classical evolution operator whose spectrum has a one-to-one correspondence with the semiclassical quantum spectrum. We illustrate this for marginally…
