Towards a definition of the Quantum Ergodic Hierarchy: Kolmogorov and Bernoulli systems

In this paper we translate the two higher levels of the Ergodic Hierarchy [1], the Kolmogorov level and the Bernoulli level, to quantum language. Moreover, this paper can be considered as the second part of [2]. As in paper [2], we consider the formalism where the states are positive functionals on...

Resumo:In this paper we translate the two higher levels of the Ergodic Hierarchy [1], the Kolmogorov level and the Bernoulli level, to quantum language. Moreover, this paper can be considered as the second part of [2]. As in paper [2], we consider the formalism where the states are positive functionals on the algebra of observables and we use the properties of the Wigner transform [3]. We illustrate the physical relevance of the Quantum Ergodic Hierarchy with two emblematic examples of the literature: the Casati-Prosen model [4], [5] and the kicked rotator [6], [7], [8].
