The statistical ensemble is generated by adding weak smooth random potential, which allows us to apply the ballistic $\\sigma$-model approach. We analyze conditions of applicability of the $\\sigma$-model, emphasizing the role played by the single-particle mean free path and the Lyapunov exponent due to the random potential. In particular, we present a resolution of the puzzle of repetitions of periodic orbits counted differently by the $\\sigma$-model and by the trace formula.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-07-26T15:44:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum chaos", "quantum disorder", "adding weak smooth random potential", "single-particle mean free path", "ballistic chaotic system" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "Low Temp.
