Abstract
Hyperbolic flows, as formulated by Anosov, are the prototypes of chaotic evolutions in classical dynamical systems. Here we provide a concise updated account of their quantum counterparts originally formulated by Emch, Narnhofer, Thirring and Sewell within the operator algebraic setting of quantum theory; and we discuss their bearing on the question of quantum chaos.
