Abstract: We study the emergence of chaos in a 2d system corresponding to a classical Hamiltonian system $V= \frac{1}{2}(\omega_x^2x^2+\omega_y^2y^2)+\epsilon xy^2$ consisting of two interacting harmonic oscillators and compare the classical and the Bohmian quantum trajectories for increasing values of $\epsilon$. In particular we present an initial quantum state composed of two coherent states in $x$ and $y$, which in the absence of interaction produces ordered trajectories (Lissajous figures) and an initial state which contains {both chaotic and ordered} trajectories for $\epsilon=0$. In both cases we find that, in general, Bohmian trajectories become chaotic in the long run, but chaos emerges at times which depend on the strength of the interaction between the oscillators.

Hamiltonians for Quantum Systems with Contact Interactions [49.1574468325115]
We show that in the limit one obtains the one-body Hamiltonian for the light particle subject to $N$ (non-local) point interactions placed at fixed positions. We will verify that such non-local point interactions do not exhibit the ultraviolet pathologies that are present in the case of standard local point interactions.

Decoherence ensures classicality beyond the Ehrenfest time as $\hbar \to 0$ [1.9499120576896227]
In closed quantum systems, wavepackets can spread exponentially in time due to chaos. A weakly coupled environment is conjectured to decohere the system and restore the quantum-classical correspondence. We prove the quantum and classical evolutions are close whenever the strength of the environment-induced diffusion exceeds a threshold.

Correspondence between open bosonic systems and stochastic differential equations [77.34726150561087]
We show that there can also be an exact correspondence at finite $n$ when the bosonic system is generalized to include interactions with the environment. A particular system with the form of a discrete nonlinear Schr"odinger equation is analyzed in more detail.

Chaos and ergodicity in an entangled two-qubit Bohmian system [0.0]
We study in detail the onset of chaos and the probability measures formed by individual Bohmian trajectories in entangled states of two-qubit systems. In weakly entangled states chaos is manifested through the sudden jumps of the Bohmian trajectories between successive Lissajous-like figures. In strongly entangled states, the chaotic form of the Bohmian trajectories is manifested after a short time.

Time-periodic quantum states of weakly interacting bosons in a harmonic trap [0.0]
We consider identical quantum bosons with weak contact interactions in a two-dimensional isotropic harmonic trap, and focus on states at the Lowest Landau Level (LLL) We exploit the rich algebraic structure of the problem to give an explicit construction of a large family of quantum states with energies of the form $E_0+gE_1/4+O(g2)$. As a result, any superposition of these states evolves periodically with a period of at most $8pi/g$ until, at much longer time scales of order $1/g2$, corrections to the energies of order $g
