Characterization of Chaotic Evolution in Quantum Systems Induced by Random Hermitian Matrices

Arkady Kurnosov, Sven Gnutzmann, Uzy Smilansky

In a recent paper, a semiclassical Lyapunov exponent associated with a quantum Hamiltonian represented by a finite-dimensional Hermitian matrix was defined and placed on a mathemat…

Quantum graph models of quantum chaos: an introduction and some recent applications

Gregory Berkolaiko, Sven Gnutzmann

Quantum graphs are a paradigmatic model for quantum chaos as well as for spectral theory. We give a concise didactical introduction to quantum graphs, or Schrödinger Hamiltonians o…

Symmetry Breaking and Phase Transitions in Random Non-Commutative Geometries and Related Random-Matrix Ensembles

Mauro D'Arcangelo, Sven Gnutzmann

Ensembles of random fuzzy non-commutative geometries may be described in terms of finite (\(N^2\)-dimensional) Dirac operators and a probability measure. Dirac operators of type \(…

Information scrambling and chaos induced by a Hermitian Matrix

Sven Gnutzmann, Uzy Smilansky

Given an arbitrary \(V \times V\) Hermitian matrix, considered as a finite discrete quantum Hamiltonian, we use methods from graph and ergodic theories to construct a \textit{quant…

Closed form expressions for the Green's function of a quantum graph -- a scattering approach

Tristan Lawrie, Sven Gnutzmann, Gregor Tanner

In this work we present a three step procedure for generating a closed form expression of the Green's function on both closed and open finite quantum graphs with general self-adjoi…

A trace formula for metric graphs with piecewise constant potentials and multi-mode graphs

Sven Gnutzmann, Uzy Smilansky

We generalize the scattering approach to quantum graphs to quantum graphs with with piecewise constant potentials and multiple excitation modes. The free single-mode case is well-k…
