The Quantum Kicked Rotor: A Paradigm of Quantum Chaos. Foundational aspects and new perspectives
Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati, Jiangbin Gong +1
The kicked rotor provides a simple yet powerful model for introducing many of the central concepts of classical and quantum chaos. Despite its apparent simplicity, it exhibits rich…
Local integrability breaking and exponential localization of leading Lyapunov vectors
Jiaozi Wang, Tomaž Prosen, Giulio Casati
We study integrability breaking and transport in a discrete space-time lattice with a local integrability breaking perturbation. We find a singular distribution of the Lyapunov spe…
Comment on "Coherent Ratchets in Driven Bose-Einstein Condensates"
G. Benenti, G. Casati, S. Denisov +4
C. E. Creffield and F. Sols (Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 200601 (2009)) recently reported finite, directed time-averaged ratchet current, for a noninteracting quantum particle in a perio…
Uniform semiclassical approach to fidelity decay in the deep Lyapunov regime
Wen-ge Wang, G. Casati, Baowen Li +1
We use the uniform semiclassical approximation in order to derive the fidelity decay in the regime of large perturbations. Numerical computations are presented which agree with our…
Controlling the energy flow in nonlinear lattices: a model for a thermal rectifier
M. Terraneo, M. Peyrard, G. Casati
We address the problem of heat conduction in 1-D nonlinear chains; we show that, acting on the parameter which controls the strength of the on site potential inside a segment of th…
Efficient Quantum Computing of Complex Dynamics
Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati, Simone Montangero +1
We propose a quantum algorithm which uses the number of qubits in an optimal way and efficiently simulates a physical model with rich and complex dynamics described by the quantum…
