Abstract: We present a method for constructing a quantum Markov partition. Its elements are obtained by quantizing the characteristic function of the classical rectangles. The result is a set of quantum operators which behave asymptotically as projectors over the classical rectangles except from edge and corner effects. We investigate their spectral properties and different methods of construction. The quantum partition is shown to induce a symbolic decomposition of the quantum evolution operator. In particular, an exact expression for the traces of the propagator is obtained having the same structure as Gutzwiller periodic orbit sum.
