We give a formulation of quantum ergodicity for Pauli Hamiltonians with arbitrary spin in terms of a Wigner-Weyl calculus. The corresponding classical phase space is the direct product of the phase space of the translational degrees of freedom and the two-sphere. On this product space we introduce a
The rate of quantum ergodicity is studied for three strongly chaotic (Anosov) systems. The quantal eigenfunctions on a compact Riemannian surface of genus g ---2 and of two triangular billiards on a surface of constant negative curvature are investigated. One of the triangular billiards belongs to t
We investigate the classical and quantum dynamics in an array of electron billiards within a magnetic field. The resulting modification of the phase space due to the magnetic field can be directly related to the experimentally observed magneto-resistance. We argue that the behaviour of chaos plays a
