چکیده

We derive a semiclassical trace formula for quantized chaotic transformations of the torus coupled to a two-spinor precessing in a magnetic field. The trace formula is applied to semiclassical correlation densities of the quantum map, which, according to the conjecture of Bohigas, Giannoni and Schmit, are expected to converge to those of the circular symplectic ensemble (CSE) of random matrices. In particular, we show that the diagonal approximation of the spectral form factor for small arguments agrees with the CSE prediction. The results are confirmed by numerical investigations.

Reversible quantum measurement with arbitrary spins

We propose a physically reversible quantum measurement of an arbitrary spin-s system using a spin-j probe with a simple interaction. By the physical reversibility, the measurement has a reversing measurement, which can restore the premeasurement state from the postmeasurement state with a nonzero probability of success. In the case of a spin-1/2 system (s = 1/2), we explicitly construct such a ...

Lorentz transformations of spin density matrices for a particle with positive mass and spin 1/2 are described by maps of the kind used in open quantum dynamics. They show how the Lorentz transformations of the spin depend on the momentum. Since the spin and momentum generally are entangled, the maps generally are not completely positive and act in limited domains. States with two momentum value...

On the Quantum Cat and Sawtooth Maps- Return to Generic Behaviour

The quantization of the continous cat maps on the torus has led to rather pathological quantum objects [6]. The non-generic behaviour of this model has led some to conclude that the Correspondence Principle fails in this case [2]. In this note we introduce the quantum sawtooth models, since this is the natural family to which the cat maps belong. Thus, a simple propagator depending on a paramet...

Parabolic maps with spin: Generic spectral statistics with non-mixing classical limit

We investigate quantised maps of the torus whose classical analogues are ergodic but not mixing. Their quantum spectral statistics shows non-generic behaviour, i. e. it does not follow random matrix theory (RMT). By coupling the map to a spin 1/2, which corresponds to changing the quantisation without altering the classical limit of the dynamics on the torus, we numerically observe a transition...

Exact Renormalization Scheme for Quantum Anosov Maps

An exact renormalization scheme is introduced for quantum Anosov maps (QAMs) on a torus for general boundary conditions (BCs), whose number is always finite. Given a QAM Û with k BCs and Planck’s constant h̄ = 2π/p (p integer), its nth renormalization iterate Û (n) = Rn(Û) is associated with k BCs for all n and with a Planck’s constant h̄ = h̄/kn. It is shown that the quasienergy eigenvalue proble...
