While the superposition of quantum evolutions is known to produce interference effects, the interference between evolutions with regular and chaotic classical limits remains largely unexplored. Here, we use a Mach-Zehnder interferometer to…

Bifurcation analysis collects techniques for characterizing the dependence of certain classes of solutions of a dynamical system on variations in problem parameters. Common solution classes of interest include equilibria and periodic…

Periodic orbit quantization requires an analytic continuation of non-convergent semiclassical trace formulae. We propose two different methods for semiclassical quantization. The first method is based upon the harmonic inversion of…

This paper investigates the global structures of periodic orbits that appear in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection, which is modeled by a two-dimensional perturbed Hamiltonian model, by focusing upon resonance, symmetry and bifurcation of the…

We have derived a semiclassical trace formula for the level density of the three-dimensional spheroidal cavity. To overcome the divergences occurring at bifurcations and in the spherical limit, the trace integrals over the action-angle…

A systematic study of closed classical orbits of the hydrogen atom in crossed electric and magnetic fields is presented. We develop a local bifurcation theory for closed orbits which is analogous to the well-known bifurcation theory for…

A tight binding representation of the kicked Harper model is used to obtain an integrable semiclassical Hamiltonian consisting of degenerate "quantized" orbits. New orbits appear when renormalized Harper parameters cross integer multiples…

We analyze the classical and quantum properties of the integrable dimer problem. The classical version exhibits exactly one bifurcation in phase space, which gives birth to permutational symmetry broken trajectories and a separatrix. The…

We report on transcritical bifurcations of periodic orbits in non-integrable two-dimensional Hamiltonian systems. We discuss their existence criteria and some of their properties using a recent mathematical description of transcritical…

We calculate within a semiclassical approximation the autocorrelation function of cross sections. The starting point is the semiclassical expression for the diagonal matrix elements of an operator. For general operators with a smooth…

We describe an iterative approach to computing long-time semiclassical dynamics in the presence of chaos, which eliminates the need for summing over an exponentially large number of classical paths, and has good convergence properties even…

The effect of small forced symmetry breaking on the dynamics near a structurally stable heteroclinic cycle connecting two equilibria and a periodic orbit is investigated. This type of system is known to exhibit complicated, possibly chaotic…

Semiclassical periodic orbit theory is used in many branches of physics. However, most applications of the theory have been to systems which involve only single particle dynamics. In this work, we develop a semiclassical formalism to…

In this work we study a one-dimensional lattice of Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick models with alternating couplings between nearest-neighbors sites, which resembles the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model. Typical properties of the underlying models are…

Semiclassical methods are extremely valuable in the study of transport and thermodynamical properties of ballistic microstructures. By expressing the conductance in terms of classical trajectories, we demonstrate that quantum interference…

We develop a semiclassical framework for studying quantum particles constrained to curved surfaces using the momentous quantum mechanics formalism, which extends classical phase-space to include quantum fluctuation variables (moments). In a…

We study the dynamics of nonlinear random walks on complex networks. We investigate the role and effect of directed network topologies on long-term dynamics. While a period-doubling bifurcation to alternating patterns occurs at a critical…

It was recently shown (Keating & Prado, {\it Proc. R. Soc. Lond. A} {\bf 457}, 1855-1872 (2001)) that, in the semiclassical limit, the scarring of quantum eigenfunctions by classical periodic orbits in chaotic systems may be dramatically…

This survey article is concerned with the study of bifurcations of piecewise-smooth maps. We review the literature in circle maps and quasi-contractions and provide paths through this literature to prove sufficient conditions for the…

We present a general review of the bifurcation sequences of periodic orbits in general position of a family of resonant Hamiltonian normal forms with nearly equal unperturbed frequencies, invariant under $Z_2 \times Z_2$ symmetry. The rich…
