- Abstract: In this study, we propose a generalized pseudoclassical theory for the kicked
rotor model in an attempt to discern the footprints of the classical dynamics
in the deep quantum regime. Compared with the previous pseudoclassical theory
that applies only in the neighborhoods of the lowest two quantum resonances,
the proposed theory is applicable in the neighborhoods of all quantum
resonances in principle by considering the quantum effect of the free rotation
at a quantum resonance. In particular, it is confirmed by simulations that the
quantum wavepacket dynamics can be successfully forecasted based on the
generalized pseudoclassical dynamics, offering an intriguing example where it
is feasible to bridge the dynamics in the deep quantum regime to the classical
dynamics. The application of the generalized pseudoclassical theory to the
$\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric kicked rotor is also discussed.

We show that, by extending these notions to the kicked top, its rich dynamical behavior can be appreciated more thoroughly.

Three notions are often assumed to be essentially equivalent, representing different facets of the same phenomenon.
We analyze them in general Friedmann-Lemaitre- Robertson-Walker space-times through the lens of geometric structures on the classical phase space.
The analysis shows that: (i) inflation does not play an essential role; classical behavior can emerge much more generally; (ii) the three notions are conceptually distinct; classicality can emerge in one sense but not in another.
