Special quantum states exist which are quasiclassical quantizations of regions of phase space that are weakly chaotic. In a weakly chaotic region, the orbits are quite regular and remain in the region for some time before escaping and…
We study the statistics of wave functions in a ballistic chaotic system. The statistical ensemble is generated by adding weak smooth random potential, which allows us to apply the ballistic $\sigma$-model approach. We analyze conditions of…
We have developed a semiclassical theory of short periodic orbits to obtain all quantum information of a bounded chaotic Hamiltonian system. If T_1 is the period of the shortest periodic orbit, T_2 the period of the next one and so on, the…

We apply periodic orbit theory to a quantum billiard on a torus with a variable number N of small circular scatterers distributed randomly. Provided these scatterers are much smaller than the wave length they may be regarded as sources of…
While plenty of results have been obtained for single-particle quantum systems with chaotic dynamics through a semiclassical theory, much less is known about quantum chaos in the many-body setting. We contribute to recent efforts to make a…
We define a class of quantum systems called regular quantum graphs. Although their dynamics is chaotic in the classical limit with positive topological entropy, the spectrum of regular quantum graphs is explicitly computable analytically…
In the present work we study the two-point correlation function $R(\epsilon)$ of the quantum mechanical spectrum of a classically chaotic system. Recently this quantity has been computed for chaotic and for disordered systems using periodic…

The spectral correlation of a chaotic system with spin 1/2 is universally described by the GSE (Gaussian Symplectic Ensemble) of random matrices in the semiclassical limit. In semiclassical theory, the spectral form factor is expressed in…
A short historical overview is given on the development of our knowledge of complex dynamical systems with special emphasis on ergodicity and chaos, and on the semiclassical quantization of integrable and chaotic systems. The general trace…
The Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem asserts under mild conditions that Birkhoff averages (i.e. time averages computed along a trajectory) converge to the space average. For sufficiently smooth systems, our small modification of numerical Birkhoff…
The most general and versatile defining feature of quantum chaotic systems is that they possess an energy spectrum with correlations universally described by random matrix theory (RMT). This feature can be exhibited by systems with a well…
We analyse universal statistical properties of phase shifts and time delays for open chaotic systems in the crossover regime of partly broken time-reversal invariance. In particular, we find that the distribution of the time delay shows…
Quantum graphs have recently been introduced as model systems to study the spectral statistics of linear wave problems with chaotic classical limits. It is proposed here to generalise this approach by considering arbitrary, directed graphs…
