We consider quantum systems with a chaotic classical limit that depend on an external parameter, and study correlations between the spectra at different parameter values. In particular, we consider the parametric spectral form factor…

The two-point correlation function of chaotic systems with spin 1/2 is evaluated using periodic orbits. The spectral form factor for all times thus becomes accessible. Equivalence with the predictions of random matrix theory for the…
The quantum chaos is related to a Gaussian random matrix model, which shows a dip-ramp-plateau behavior in the spectral form factor for the large size $N$. The spectral form factor of time dependent Gaussian random matrix model shows also…
We show that in the semiclassical limit, classically chaotic systems have universal spectral statistics. Concentrating on short-time statistics, we identify the pairs of classical periodic orbits determining the small-$\tau$ behavior of the…
We study the relationship of the spectral form factor with quantum as well as classical probabilities to return. Defining a quantum return probability in phase space as a trace over the propagator of the Wigner function allows us to…

We prove that in bosonic quantum mechanics the two-point spectral form factor can be obtained as an average of the two-point out-of-time ordered correlation function, with the average taken over the Heisenberg group. In quantum field…
