Recently it has been shown that time-reversal invariant systems with discrete symmetries may display, in certain irreducible subspaces, spectral statistics corresponding to the Gaussian-unitary ensemble (GUE) rather than to the expected orthogonal one (GOE). A Kramers-type degeneracy is predicted in such situations. We present results for a microwave billiard with a threefold rotational symmetry and with the option to display or break a reflection symmetry. This allows us to observe the change from GOE to GUE statistics for one subset of levels. Since it was not possible to separate the three subspectra reliably, the number variances for the superimposed spectra were studied. The experimental results are compared with a theoretical and numerical study considering the effects of level splitting and level loss.

We experimentally investigate the undirected open microwave network Γ with internal absorption composed of two coupled directed halves, unidirectional networks Γ_{+} and Γ_{-}, corresponding to two possible directions of motion on their edges. The two-port scattering matrix of the network Γ is measured and the spectral statistics and the elastic enhancement factor of the network are evaluated. The comparison of the number of experimental resonances with the theoretical one predicted by the Weyl's law shows that within the experimental resolution the resonances are doubly degenerate.

Two-dimensional (2D) Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) growth is usually investigated on substrates of lateral sizes L_{x}=L_{y}, so that L_{x} and the correlation length (ξ) are the only relevant lengths determining the scaling behavior. However, in cylindrical geometry, as well as in flat rectangular substrates L_{x}≠L_{y} and, thus, the surfaces can become correlated in a single direction, when ξ∼L_{x}≪L_{y}. From extensive simulations of several KPZ models, we demonstrate that this yields a dimensional crossover in their dynamics, with the roughness scaling as W∼t^{β_{2D}} for t≪t_{c} and W∼t^{β_{1D}} for t≫t_{c}, where t_{c}∼L_{x}^{1/z_{2D}}.

We report on an experimental investigation of the transition of a quantum system with integrable classical dynamics to one with violated time-reversal (T) invariance and chaotic classical counterpart. High-precision experiments are performed with a flat superconducting microwave resonator with circular shape in which T-invariance violation and chaoticity are induced by magnetizing a ferrite disk placed at its center, which above the cutoff frequency of the first transverse-electric mode acts as a random potential. We determine a complete sequence of ≃1000 eigenfrequencies and find good agreement with analytical predictions for the spectral properties of the Rosenzweig-Porter (RP) model, which interpolates between Poisson statistics expected for typical integrable systems and Gaussian unitary ensemble statistics predicted for chaotic systems with violated Tinvariance.

Embedded random matrix ensembles with k-body interactions are well established to be appropriate for many quantum systems. For these ensembles the two point correlation function is not yet derived, though these ensembles are introduced 50 years back. Two-point correlation function in eigenvalues of a random matrix ensemble is the ensemble average of the product of the density of eigenvalues at two eigenvalues, say E and E^{'}.

Complex eigenvalues of random matrices J=GUE+iγdiag(1,0,…,0) provide the simplest model for studying resonances in wave scattering from a quantum chaotic system via a single open channel. It is known that in the limit of large matrix dimensions N≫1 the eigenvalue density of undergoes an abrupt restructuring at γ=1, the critical threshold beyond which a single eigenvalue outlier ("broad resonance") appears. We provide a detailed description of this restructuring transition, including the scaling with of the width of the critical region about the outlier threshold γ=1 and the associated scaling for the real parts ("resonance positions") and imaginary parts ("resonance widths") of the eigenvalues which are farthest away from the real axis.
