Chaos cha·os [from Latin, from Greek khaos.] n.1. A condition or place of great disorder or confusion.2. A disorderly mass; a jumble: The desk was a chaos of papers and unopened letters.3. often Chaos The disordered state of unformed matter and infinite space supposed in some cosmogonic views to have existed before the ordered universe: In the beginning there was Chaos… (Genesis)4. Mathematics A dynamical system that has a sensitive dependence on its initial conditions.

Classical chaos
in dynamical systems (described by Hamiltonians):
fully chaotic (ergodic) dynamics leads to
homogeneous phase space
Example: kicked top
Other examples: double pendulum,stadium billiard

Define ‘quantum chaos’
“How does chaos lurks into a quantum system?..”
(A. Einstein, 1917) Phase space? No, Heisenberg uncertainty… Sensitive initial conditions? No,
Shroedinger equation is linear, simple time evolution
Spectroscopy? Yes, the spectra of classically
chaotic systems have universal properties
Bohigas, Giannoni & Schmit, PRL 52 (1984) – BGS conjecture
There are other definitions …

Connection to Random Matrix Theory E. Wigner reproduced gross features of complicated (neutron-
resonance) spectra by an ensemble of random Hamiltonians,
i.e., eigenvalues of matrices filled with normally distributes random numbers.
The NNSD of eigenvalues of a random matrix approximately described by the Wigner distribution
Another interesting math that leads to the Wigner distribution,
zeros of the zeta function (Riemann, 1859):NNSD

Level Density
Mean level density = inverse mean spacing:
mean spacing:
spacing:
Consider spectrum , N+1 levels
Because the NNSDs are normalized to unit mean spacing, one needs to makesure that mean spacing is constant over the entire spectrum

2. yes distinction on quantum numbers

Conclusion no. 1
The NNSD of experimental (low-lying) hadron spectrum is of the Wigner type (GOE class)
According to the BGS conjecture, this is a signature of chaotic dynamics
What about the quark models?

Outlook (speculations)
“Missing resonances”, will they be missed?
1. Removing states randomly from the quark-model spectra doesn’t help to reconcile with the Wigner, no correlations are introduced (Bohigas & Pato, (2004), Fernandez-Ramirez & Relano (2007) ).
2. Sparsing the spectrum (removing a state if it’s too close to another one) helps – introduces correlation. Plausible, if experiment cannot resolute close states.
Regular vs. chaotic quark models?
why not a “stadium bag model” …
