Entropy of quantum limits for symplectic linear maps of the multidimensional torus

Abstract

In the case of a linear symplectic map A of the 2d-torus, semiclassical measures are A-invariant probability measures associated to sequences of high energy quantum states. Our main result is an explicit lower bound on the entropy of any semiclassical measure of a given quantizable matrix A in Sp(2d,Z). In particular, our result implies that if A has an eigenvalue outside the unit circle, then a semiclassical measure cannot be carried by a closed orbit of A.
