Physical and numerical experiments on the wave mechanics of classically chaotic systems

S. Sridhar, Eric J. Heller

We study chaotic quantum billiards using both microwave cavities and numerical simulations. For the same geometry, viz., a Sinai billiard, agreement to remarkable precision is found for both the eigenvalue magnitudes and the spatial detail of the eigenfunctions. The association of the eigenfunctions with classical periodic orbits is demonstrated, and scarred states are identified. Desymmetrizing the Sinai billiard by slightly moving the central disk is shown to lead to strong localization of the eigenfunction. The calculated eigenstates of the symmetric billiard show an even- and odd-parity pair whose linear combination gives the localized state.

EVOLUTION OF LIOUVILLE DENSITY IN BILLIARDS: THE QUANTUM CONNECTION

Debabrata Biswas

The study of classical Liouville density arises naturally in chaotic systems where a probabilistic treatment is more appropriate. In this review, we show that the evolution of a density projected onto the configuration space has a quantum connection in billiard systems. The eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the concerned evolution operator have an approximate one-to-one correspondence with the quantum Neumann eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. For exceptional billiard shapes such as the rectangle, this correspondence is even exact. Despite the approximate nature of the correspondence, we demonstrate that the exact quantum Neumann eigenstates can be used to expand and evolve an arbitrary classical projected-density. For the rectangular and stadium billiards, results are compared with the actual evolution of the density using classical trajectories and are found to be satisfactory.

Localized structures embedded in the eigenfunctions of chaotic Hamiltonian systems

E. Vergini, Diego A. Wisniacki

We study quantum localization phenomena in chaotic systems with a parameter. The parametric motion of energy levels proceeds without crossing any other and the defined avoided crossings quantify the interaction between states. We propose the elimination of avoided crossings as the natural mechanism to uncover localized structures. We describe an efficient method for the elimination of avoided crossings in chaotic billiards and apply it to the stadium billiard. We find many scars of short periodic orbits revealing the skeleton on which quantum mechanics is built. Moreover, we have observed strong interaction between similar localized structures.
