Abstract

We study quantum signatures of the chaotic dynamics in typical two-dimensional Hamiltonian systems, where regular and chaotic motion coexist. We introduce a new class of eigenfunctions which live in the hierarchical region of the chaotic part of phase space. The emergence of two types of conductance fluctuations, fractal and isolated, is discussed.
