Abstract

As is by now well known there are two radically different types of motion in classical Hamiltonian mechanics: the regular motion of integrable systems and the chaotic motion of nonintegrable systems.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The classical limit of a periodically driven spin was realized by Waldner [1]; much later came the first realization of the quantum version in Jessen’s group [2].

  2. 2.

    Chaotic scattering and graphs make for equally interesting applications of unitary random matrices.
