Abstract

A unified theory of quantum Lyapunov exponents, based on the Hamilton-Jacobi formulation of quantum mechanics, is applied to Weigert's quantum cat map. It is shown to provide a definite positive example of deterministic quantum chaos in terms of extreme sensitivity on initial conditions and a positive definite Lyapunov exponent.
