Abstract: | The quantum cat map is a model for a quantum system with underlying chaotic dynamics. In this paper we study the matrix elements
of smooth observables in this model, when taking arithmetic symmetries into account. We give explicit formulas for the matrix
elements as certain exponential sums. With these formulas we can show that there are sequences of eigenfunctions for which
the matrix elements decay significantly slower then was previously expected. We also prove a limiting distribution for the
fluctuation of the normalized matrix elements around their average.
