Title :
Quantum Chaos in Billiards
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
An important class of systems - billiards - can show a wide variety of dynamical behavior. Using tools developed in Python, researchers can interactively study the complexity of these dynamics. Such behavior is directly reflected in properties of the corresponding quantum systems, such as eigenvalue statistics or the structure of eigenfunctions
