The Big Picture
The universe, as we know, is quantum.
Classical mechanics gives an excellent description
of the macroscopic world !

Chaos
Entlanglement
How does classical behavior emerge out of quantum mechanics?
Are there any footprints of classical chaos in the quantum world?

What is Classical Chaos?
• Aperiodic long term behavior in a
deterministic system.
• Sensitive dependence to initial conditions.

Quantum Chaos?
• Quantum mechanics preserves the inner
product between state vectors. Unitary
evolution gives us:
(0)|⇥(0)⇥ =
U † |U ⇥⇥ = (t)|⇥(t)⇥
• What are other ways to characterize chaos in
quantum mechanical systems?
• Quantum Chaology :
What are the quantum
signatures of classical chaos?
• We have a new quantum signature of chaos.

Chaotic trajectory acts as an information source
As one follows a single trajectory, one gains information about
the initial conditions of the trajectory

Information content in the
Covariance matrix
•
Eigenvectors of the inverse of the covariance matrix give specify
the direction in the operator space that have been measured. They
are the “observables” that we measure.
•
The corresponding eigenvalues give the uncertainty with which we
measure those “observables” given a signal to noise ratio.
•
Entropy of the eigenvalues of the inverse of the covariance matrix
captures the collective information gain in tomography
•
We expect high fidelity reconstruction for higher entropy values in
the presence of noise.

Random Matrix theory and Quantum Chaos
How well our analysis agrees with
the Random Matrix theory ?
21
The Random Matrix conjecture of
Quantum Chaos.
When Hamiltonian or Floquet map is
completely chaotic, then its statistical properties
can be described by a Random Matrix picked
from an appropriate ensemble.
Signatures of chaos/integrability: Level statistics, Level repulsion are
described by the Random Matrix theory.

Conclusion
• We have a new quantum signature of classical chaos!
• Quantum chaos intimately related to information gain
and consequences are manifested in the fidelities of
reconstruction.
• Information gain in chaotic systems has a remarkable
agreement with the Random Matrix theory.

Choice of the appropriate ensemble of
Random Matrix
Appropriate ensemble is given by fundamental symmetries of the
Hamiltonian e.g Time reversal invariance
The kicked top is Time reversal Invariant.
