From quantum chaos and eigenstate thermalization to statistical mechanics and thermodynamics

L D'Alessio, Y Kafri, A Polkovnikov, M Rigol - Advances in Physics, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
This review gives a pedagogical introduction to the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis
(ETH), its basis, and its implications to statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. In the first …

Gutzwiller's trace formula and spectral statistics: beyond the diagonal approximation

EB Bogomolny, JP Keating - Physical review letters, 1996 - APS
We calculate the 2-point spectral correlation function for classically chaotic systems in the
semiclassical limit using Gutzwiller's trace formula. The off-diagonal contributions from pairs …

Flow of zero-point energy and exploration of phase space in classical simulations of quantum relaxation dynamics

G Stock, U Müller - The Journal of chemical physics, 1999 - pubs.aip.org
Necessary conditions under which a classical description will give the correct quantum
relaxation behavior are analyzed. Assuming a nonequilibrium preparation, it is shown that …

Eigenstate thermalisation at the edge for Wigner matrices

We prove the Eigenstate Thermalisation Hypothesis for Wigner matrices uniformly in the
entire spectrum, in particular near the spectral edges, with a bound on the fluctuation that is …

Scars in quantum chaotic wavefunctions
