Impurity-induced Wavefunction Scarring on curved surfaces — •Michael Kraus, Dominik Schulz, and Jamal Berakdar — Martin-Luther Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Halle (Saale), Germany

Quantum Scarring is a phenomenom where Eigenstates of a quantum chaotic system show enhanced probability along short periodic orbits. Recently, it has been shown that strong scarring occurs by perturbing quantum oscillator systems with localized impurities. [2] Among others, magnetic fields, impurity strength and their positioning can be used to control Scars. [3] Moreover, this effect is accompanied by very efficient wave-packet dynamics which opens the possibility for useful quantum-transport applications. In this work we address the influence of curvature (systems like cylinders and tori) by using the thin-layer approximation and additionally introduce Rashba-type spin-orbit coupling along the surface.
