Quantum Instantons and Quantum Chaos
We suggest a closed form expression for the path integral of quantum transition amplitudes to construct a quantum action. Based on this we propose rigorous definitions of both, quantum instantons and quantum chaos. As an example we compute the quantum instanton of the double well potential. ∗Corresponding author, Email: [email protected]
متن کاملChaos and Quantum Chaos in Cosmological Models
Spatially homogeneous cosmological models reduce to Hamiltonian systems in a low dimensional Minkowskian space moving on the total energy shellH = 0. Close to the initial singularity some models (those of Bianchi type VIII and IX) can be reduced further, in a certain approximation, to a non-compact triangular billiard on a 2-dimensional space of constant negative curvature with a separately con...
متن کاملComparison of Classical Chaos with Quantum Chaos
Abstract We investigate chaotic behavior in a 2-D Hamiltonian system oscillators with anharmonic coupling. We compare the classical system with quantum system. Via the quantum action, we construct Poincaré sections and compute Lyapunov exponents for the quantum system. We find that the quantum system is globally less chaotic than the classical system. We also observe with increasing energy the ...
متن کاملChaos in Quantum Cosmology
Most of the foundational work on quantum cosmology employs a simple minisuperspace model describing a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe containing a massive scalar field. We show that the classical limit of this model exhibits deterministic chaos and explore some of the consequences for the quantum theory. In particular, the breakdown of the WKB approximation calls into question many of the s...
متن کاملNonseparability and Quantum Chaos
Conventional wisdom has it that chaotic behavior is either strongly suppressed or absent in quantum models. Indeed, some researchers have concluded that these considerations serve to undermine the correspondence principle, thereby raising serious doubts about the adequacy of quantum mechanics. Thus, the quantum chaos question is a prime subject for philosophical analysis. The most significant r...
