Current Research Interests Quantum Physics Entanglement. Spin chains. Quantum Information. Transport. Random Walks. Semiclassics. General Issues of quantum chaos. Classical Chaos. Hamiltonian chaos. Higher dimensional chaos. Pattern formation and turbulence in complex systems and fluid. Mathematical Physics. Elliptic Functions. (hundreds of identities derived by us concerning Jacobi functions are collected at this Wolfram site on functions. These identitites will also appear in the new digital replacement of Abramowitz and Stegun's classic mathematical compendia to be published by NIST and will be available from 2006.) Integrability of discrete equations. Students Ph. D J. Bandyopadhyay (2004, Physical Research Lab., Ahmedabad) N. Meenakshisundaram (IIT Madras) M.Sc. H. Naren (2004) : Quantum bakers map K. Sreekanth (2005) : Geometry and Hamiltonian Dynamics M. D. Prabha (2005) : Quantum random walks Publications Most of my papers are availabe at the physics archive site http://arxiv.org. This lists the search of all my papers on the arxiv, including some which are not published. My current top two well-cited (by my standards) papers are: Entangling Power of Quantized Chaotic Systems Arul Lakshminarayan Phys. Rev.
