The Bunimovich stadium in the diffusive regime: Classical and quantum properties

Fausto Borgonovi

(Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica, Universitá Cattolica, Brescia, Italy)

Abstract: Classical and quantum properties of the Bunimovich stadium in the diffusive regime are reviewed. In particular, the quantum properties are directly investigated using an approximate quantum map. Different localized regimes are found, namely, perturbative, quasi-integrable, dynamical and ergodic.

Host: Richard Prange
