Semiclassical Theory of Quantum Chaotic Transport: Phase-Space Splitting
Ph. Jacquod, Robert S. Whitney
This paper is withdrawn. While almost all findings reported here remain valid, some of our comments on the fate of weak localization corrections to the conductance in the deep semi…
Microscopic Theory for the Quantum to Classical Crossover in Chaotic Transport
Robert S. Whitney, Ph. Jacquod
We present a semiclassical theory for the scattering matrix of a chaotic ballistic cavity at finite Ehrenfest time. Using a phase-space representation coupled with a mul…
Geometric nature of the environment-induced Berry phase and geometric dephasing
Robert S. Whitney, Yuriy Makhlin, Alexander Shnirman +1
We investigate the geometric phase or Berry phase (BP) acquired by a spin-half which is both subject to a slowly varying magnetic field and weakly-coupled to a dissipative environm…
Form factor for a family of quantum graphs: An expansion to third order
Gregory Berkolaiko, Holger Schanz, Robert S. Whitney
For certain types of quantum graphs we show that the random-matrix form factor can be recovered to at least third order in the scaled time from periodic-orbit theory. We consid…
Does Berry phase exist for a system coupled to its environment?
Robert S. Whitney, Yuval Gefen
Berry phase was originally defined for systems whose states are separated by finite energy gaps. One might naively expect that a system without a gap cannot have a Berry phase. Des…
The Leading Off-Diagonal Correction to the Form Factor of Large Graphs
Gregory Berkolaiko, Holger Schanz, Robert S. Whitney
Using periodic-orbit theory beyond the diagonal approximation we investigate the form factor, , of a generic quantum graph with mixing classical dynamics and time-reversal sy…
