Resonances for open quantum maps and a fractal uncertainty principle (Q2364583): Difference between revisions

Open quantum maps are useful models in the study of scattering phenomena and in particular scattering resonances. This paper investigates eigenvalues for a family of open quantum maps known as quantum open Baker's maps. The corresponding trapped orbits form Cantor sets. The combinatorial and number theoretic properties of these sets make it possible to prove results on spectral gaps that lie well beyond what is known for other models. A fractal Weyl upper bound also is given and numerical results are provided.
