We consider Hamiltonian systems which can be described both classically and quantum mechanically. Trace formulas establish links between the energy spectra of the quantum description and the spectrum of actions of periodic orbits in the…
The quasi-bound modes localized on stable periodic ray orbits of dielectric micro-cavities are constructed in the short-wavelength limit using the parabolic equation method. These modes are shown to coexist with irregularly spaced "chaotic"…

We show the emergence of random matrix theory (RMT) spectral correlations in the chaotic phase of generic periodically kicked interacting quantum many-body systems by analytically calculating spectral form factor (SFF), $K(t)$, up to two…
We review quantum chaos on graphs. We construct a unitary operator which represents the quantum evolution on the graph and study its spectral and wavefunction statistics. This operator is the analogue of the classical evolution operator on…
We study the statistical and dynamical properties of the quantum triangle map, whose classical counterpart can exhibit ergodic and mixing dynamics, but is never chaotic. Numerical results show that ergodicity is a sufficient condition for…
Analytical perturbations of a family of finite-dimensional Poisson systems are considered. It is shown that the family is analytically orbitally conjugate in $U \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ to a planar harmonic oscillator defined on the symplectic…
Unstable periodic orbits scar wave functions in chaotic systems. This also influences the associated spectra, that follow the otherwise universal Porter--Thomas intensity distribution. We show here how this deviation extend to other longer…

We examine spectral equilibration of quantum chaotic spectra to universal statistics, in the context of the Brownian motion model. Two competing time scales, proportional and inversely proportional to the classical relaxation time, jointly…
We study the time evolution operator in a family of local quantum circuits with random fields in a fixed direction. We argue that the presence of quantum chaos implies that at large times the time evolution operator becomes effectively a…
Many models for chaotic systems consist of joining two integrable systems with incompatible constants of motion. The quantum counterparts of such models have a propagator which factorizes into two integrable parts. Each part can be…
The quantum baker's map is the quantization of a simple classically chaotic system, and has many generic features that have been studied over the last few years. While there exists a semiclassical theory of this map, a more rigorous study…
We present exact, explicit, convergent periodic-orbit expansions for individual energy levels of regular quantum graphs. One simple application is the energy levels of a particle in a piecewise constant potential. Since the classical ray…

We investigate minimal two-body Hamiltonians with random interactions that generate spectra resembling those of Gaussian random matrices, a phenomenon we term quadratic quantum chaos. Unlike integrable two-body fermionic systems, the…
Quantum chaotic dynamics is obtained for a tight-binding model in which the energies of the atomic levels at the boundary sites are chosen at random. Results for the square lattice indicate that the energy spectrum shows a complex behavior…
We calculate the Landauer conductance through chaotic ballistic devices in the semiclassical limit, to all orders in the inverse number of scattering channels without and with a magnetic field. Families of pairs of entrance-to-exit…
We study the $n$-level spectral correlation functions of classically chaotic quantum systems without time-reversal symmetry. According to Bohigas, Giannoni and Schmit's universality conjecture, it is expected that the correlation functions…
We discuss the statistics of tunnelling rates in the presence of chaotic classical dynamics. This applies to resonance widths in chaotic metastable wells and to tunnelling splittings in chaotic symmetric double wells. The theory is based on…
