Quantum bouncer with chaos

1993 
We report for the first time quantum calculations for the so-called bouncer model, the classical analog of which is well known to manifest a chaotic behavior. Three versions of our model are fully tractable quantum mechanically and are potentially a rich source of data for establishing properties of a quantum system of which the classical mechanics can be chaotic. Among the results presented here, consequences of the varying bandwidth of infinite-dimensional transition matrices on the use of the correspondence between classical chaos and non-Poissonian quasienergy statistics are discussed
