Abstract: | In the numerical calculation of the eigenenergies of a polynomial Hamiltonian, the majority of the levels depend on the cutoff of the basis used. By analyzing the finite Hamiltonian matrix as corresponding to a classical "Action Billiard" we are able to explain several features of the full spectrum using semiclassical periodic orbit theory. There are a large number of low-period orbits which interfere at the higher energies contained in the billiard. In this range the billiard becomes more regular than the untruncated Hamiltonian, as reflected by the Berry-Robnik level spacing distribution. (c) 1996 American Institute of Physics. |
