USE OF HARMONIC INVERSION TECHNIQUES IN SEMICLASSICAL QUANTIZATION AND ANALYSIS OF QUANTUM SPECTRA

Jörg Main

Harmonic inversion is introduced as a powerful tool for both the analysis of quantum spectra and semiclassical periodic orbit quantization. The method allows to circumvent the uncertainty principle of the conventional Fourier transform and to extract dynamical information from quantum spectra which has been unattainable before, such as bifurcations of orbits, the uncovering of hidden ghost orbits in complex phase space, and the direct observation of symmetry breaking effects. The method also solves the fundamental convergence problems in semiclassical periodic orbit theories -- for both the Berry-Tabor formula and Gutzwiller's trace formula -- and can therefore be applied as a novel technique for periodic orbit quantization, i.e., to calculate semiclassical eigenenergies from a finite set of classical periodic orbits. The advantage of periodic orbit quantization by harmonic inversion is the universality and wide applicability of the method, which will be demonstrated in this work for v...

Use of Harmonic Inversion Techniques in the Periodic Orbit Quantization of Integrable Systems

Kirsten Weibert, Jörg Main, Günter Wunner

Harmonic inversion has already been proven to be a powerful tool for the analysis of quantum spectra and the periodic orbit orbit quantization of chaotic systems. The harmonic inversion technique circumvents the convergence problems of the periodic orbit sum and the uncertainty principle of the usual Fourier analysis, thus yielding results of high resolution and high precision. Based on the close analogy between periodic orbit trace formulae for regular and chaotic systems the technique is generalized in this paper for the semiclassical quantization of integrable systems. Thus, harmonic inversion is shown to be a universal tool which can be applied to a wide range of physical systems. The method is further generalized in two directions: firstly, the periodic orbit quantization will be extended to include higher order ~ corrections to the periodic orbit sum. Secondly, the use of cross-correlated periodic orbit sums allows us to significantly reduce the required number of orbi...
