We review the development of random-matrix theory (RMT) during the last fifteen years. We
emphasize both the theoretical aspects, and the application of the theory to a number of …

▪ Abstract This review describes some developments in the theory and application of the
semiclassical initial representation for the treatment of the dynamical and static properties of …

We show that a bounded, isolated quantum system of many particles in a specific initial state
will approach thermal equilibrium if the energy eigenfunctions which are superposed to form …

Mesoscopic physics refers to the physics of structures larger than a nanometer (one billionth
of a meter) but smaller than a micrometer (one millionth of a meter). This size range is the …

We summarize the properties of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in
bounded Euclidean domains with Dirichlet, Neumann, or Robin boundary condition. We …

Rather general expressions are derived which represent the semiclassical time‐dependent
propagator as an integral over initial conditions for classical trajectories. These allow one to …

A graduate-level text that examines the semiclassical approach to quantum mechanics
Physical systems have been traditionally described in terms of either classical or quantum …

Most modern physicists and philosophers would agree that a decent interpretation of
quantum mechanics should fullfil at least two criteria. Firstly, it has to elucidate the physical …

We present numerical tests of five related semiclassical techniques for computing time‐
dependent wave functions. These methods are based on integral representations for the …
