The conjecture on semiclassical measures of long-living open-baker eigenstates

About 20 years old · traced to

Let B\vrB_{\vr} be an open baker's map, and let its quantization be the one described in the source. Consider long-living eigenstates and their semiclassical measures. A long-living eigenstate is called non-diffractive when its weight on D(B−1)D(B^{-1}) and B−1(D(B−1))B^{-1}(D(B^{-1})) is negligible in the semiclassical limit.

Open-baker semiclassical-measure conjecture. All long-living semiclassical measures are supported on Γ+‾\overline{\Gamma_+}, and almost all long-living eigenstates are non-diffractive. The corresponding semiclassical measures are then eigenmeasures of B\vrB_{\vr}.

The claim is motivated by numerical Husimi observations: concentration is seen on parts of the relevant trapped-set geometry, while diffractive components may occur for exceptional states. The assertions are explicitly presented as not proved by the theorem discussed in the source.
